Homemade pinata costume

Because 1.

This homemade costume for kids entered our Halloween Costume Contest , and won 2nd place in the Favorite Halloween Costume nomination! I made this for my 2 year old out of felt and pajamas. It's pretty straight forward just cut the felt pieces in strips and hot glue them on to the PJ's. The hat is made out of thick cardboards and more felt. The ears are just cones made out of thick paper.

Pinatas are a popular party decoration and activity. But have you ever thought of dressing up as a pinata for Halloween or a costume party? Measure and cut the cardboard box to fit your body size. Cut off the bottom and top flaps and then cut two armholes on either side of the box. Be sure to leave enough space so that you can move around comfortably. Cut streamers of crepe paper to the length of your choice. Using double-sided tape or glue, attach them to the box, covering the entire surface. Mix and match colors to create a festive pinata effect. Start from the bottom of the box and work your way up. To create the fringe of the pinata costume, cut crepe paper into long strips of about inches wide.

Because 1. I need my money for ramen and 2. I've seen enough of the same "themed tube dress" to know it wasn't worth my ramen money for 1 yard of fabric that everyone else was wearing.

I have a bum, and masking tape does not stretch. Rather than tape every single layer of streamers, I made strips with several layers of streamers attached, then taped those "pinata strips" clothes. Could you possibly direct me to one, or where I could find one? Then I put a regular ball cap on my son and put the costume hat on over-top. The warm felt works perfect for us cause it gets very cold this time of year, I also have sewn it all by hand. My daughter loved it, so we made it. Privacy Policy. Everyone will love you. The fabric on the top kind of folds over once the pj's are on if that makes sense. We would love to feature it in an upcoming show for Halloween. Sorry I should have showed that. I'm attempting this for my 3 yr old..

Everyone will love you. Any ideas how to speed it up? How wide did you cute the strips? In all, I'd say it took a full 24 hours to complete I wish I was exaggerating Privacy Policy. Just curious, about how much felt did you use? They want candy. Would it make the costume lighter if I used colored fabric instead of felt? Make your horns out of the same foam paper you use to make the head piece so the horns don't weigh everything down. I also did two pieces and made the pants using crepe paper instead of felt because we live in Florida and I thought the felt would be too hot. I've seen enough of the same "themed tube dress" to know it wasn't worth my ramen money for 1 yard of fabric that everyone else was wearing. Thanks for the tutorial video! Once you have all the fringe glued on, take the time to gently stretch some of the fringe pieces to make them a little longer than the others so your fringe isn't all cut in exact straight lines I have a question for you about this costume.
