Bert and Ernie Sesame Street Halloween Costume Shirt

Product Information

This was one of the most difficult parts of the costume. We used plain white and yellow long sleeve shirts from Goodwill. We then taped the entire shirt using painter’s tape, and individually painted each line to ensure it would look crisp and straight. We searched on Google to see what techniques people had used. We were delighted to see that none of the costumes on the Internet did the characters any justice. We looked at it as a challenge, and knew we had to nail the costume. We were determined to set the bar for future Bert and Ernie’s! Bert and Ernie’s Halloween costumes make for a great couples costume for nearly any partner or BFF Halloween costumes. You can also make these fun Sesame Street costumes part of a family-friendly or group costume idea. Sesame Street Bert Halloween costumes are available in sizes for adults and children. You and your children or your partner can dress in Halloween costumes.

The first step was making sure the shirts looked identical. Every photo we saw online had a random shirt, many not even close to what the characters actually wear. Since we are all about homemade costumes, buying the costumes directly was not an option. Therefore, we had to spend a taxing amount of time creating the shirts ourselves- by painting every single line! You probably grew up with Bert and Ernie. They taught you many lessons on right and wrong ways to handle situations. Did you love Bert and Ernie when you were growing up? Was Sesame Street as big a part of your life as it has been for most children? These fun Halloween costumes are a fun way to celebrate Halloween.
