Hi, My name is Alicia Brown. I live in Melbourne Australia and design templates for people to make costumes out of cardboard.
I love cardboard, it’s completely underestimated. Most people throw away their cupboard boxes. But when I get a brand new crisp cardboard box in the house, I get really excited about the possibilities. It’s nothing new, kids have been playing with cardboard boxes for years. A cardboard box can be anything we want it to be, with just a little imagination.
You can visit my website and I also have a YouTube channel showing people how to put the costumes together.

It just blows my mind when I see a genuine artist use her unbelievable talent to have fun with her kids. These are the kind of experiences that money can’t buy and will provide stories to tell the grandchildren.

so cool, I hope you keep those costumes: it would be the biggest shame if you threw them away ;)
I make corrugated board for a living, and it makes me smile to see the stuff used this way. Very cool.
These are amazing. I just hope it doesn't rain on Halloween night when they are wearing them.
Stunning work, and a beautiful family. You are so creative. My favorite is the spaceship, if I had to pick one, but they're all so imaginative
And to think, I can't even get a cardboard box to work right for me.
You are too good at this and should stop now because you're making me feel bad.
What an incredible talented... Honey you could sell these patterns for a family fun thing. Like I'd would absolutely LOVE to learn to do this with my kiddos. I'd love to grab a lot or instruction book. You're amazingly talented I LOVE IT SO MUCH...
Those are amazing! I would also love one myself- and I know I’m a good bit older than those kiddies! If I was one of the kids, I would have a collection of those from all the years! Beautiful artwork, amazingly creative costumes!!
These are amazing costumes, and your kids are super cute. Great work Mom!
Love this! Makes me want to create something myself! Would def build and paint one of these!
Wow. I want the behind the scenes of this. It's excellent work, so perfect. You have a great imagination and you have a beautiful talent. So perfect . Kids must have a lot of fun.
So original and clever, and they look like they'd be actually doable.
