As she took on her fair form, she became the ideal of beauty and love, taking on all the attributes of the most beautiful woman imaginable. Marrying the famously ugly and crippled god of the forge, Vulcan, she was one of the chief goddesses of the Roman and Hellenic pantheons. Despite literally rising from nothing, she came into her own and achieved such fame that she is known even to today. Now that is an influencer!

Since Hephaestus is the mythological god of smithing and building, we thought it would be perfect for our 3rd kiddo, who is our biggest builder by a mile!

They were well-dressed, adorned with beautiful jewelry, and had the full attention of everyone in their kingdom. Can you imagine the epic parties that the Egyptian gods and goddesses took part in?

Well, lo and behold, this year they came up with a matching theme for a family Greek mythology costume. Since Hermes is the messenger god with winged apparel, my son created several sets of wings out of cardboard. He attached one set of wings to an old pair of flip flops (or you can get an inexpensive pair) and spray painted the whole thing gold. He also made a helmet out of cardboard and a paper bowl and attached another pair of wings to that, and spray painted that gold, as well. He also used his stuffed snake to wrap around his caduceus, an angel tunic, a shield, and the gold leaves ribbon. I loved how this Hermes Halloween costume turned out! Why be an ordinary woman when you can be a goddess? If classical mythology has always intrigued you, women's goddess costumes are an exciting choice for any costumed event. Before you make your decision on the costume alone, you may want to decide on what you want your vibe to be for the night? Are you feeling fierce and powerful? Well, then Athena is a great choice! Feeling a little mysterious and magical? If that's the case, you may want to choose from Egyptian mythology and explore goddess Isis costumes! My husband decided to do a Zeus Halloween costume, and needed a couple of props to add to his look. He also used a flat sheet to tie around himself. Then, he made a lightning bolt staff out of cardboard and a wooden pole. He then spray painted those gold, along with cardboard cuffs closed with Velcro, and gold leaves ribbon around his head.
