Halloween is tomorrow, and parents the world over are undoubtedly gluing the last eyeball on, painting the last polka dot, or affixing the last whisker. You can't go wrong with a homemade costume - there's something undeniably endearing about sending your little one out amongst their peers looking like a deranged easter bunny. It's a labor of love. But there's a line one mustn't cross - and Martha Stewart, you just crossed it.
Don't get me wrong - the woman is clearly a virtuoso for all things homemade, but when I saw these pictures of homemade baby costumes, I was, well, disturbed.
I sense a common theme here - did the witch from Hantzel and Gretel come up with these? I mean, what the hell is cute about pretending your baby is cooked up on a plate surrounded by wilted greens and orange sauce?
Message for Martha's creative department: put down the bong and step away...quickly.
