About six months ago, two photos blew up the Internet: a suit of a canary and a centaur. Not too talented parents made their children carnival outfits that make you want to cry and laugh at the same time. In fact, you can sew beautiful costumes of these heroes for children. We'll show you how.
Canary costume
Basically, this is a pretty versatile suit. If you can’t put on New Year’s “snowflakes”, “bunnies” and “Christmas trees” for a spring holiday, then a canary costume will come in handy, say, on March 8th.
Your child will most likely like this bright yellow suit, if only because there will most likely not be another like it in a group in kindergarten or in a school class. Remember, every time you came to the next matinee, you saw at least five princesses and six hares. If you make a canary costume, you will one hundred percent avoid repetition, and your child will feel unique.
All you need is a yellow dress with wings and a mask. Making it at home is easy. Take a piece of yellowfabric, preferably satin or any other "non-heavy". Cut out a large circle with a hole in the middle. It should turn out to be a kind of skirt-sun. Only this hole is not for the belt, but for the neck. Sew the sleeves so that when the child raises his arms up, wings are obtained. That's it!
You can make the canary costume much more elegant by decorating it with sparkles and sequins. The bird mask can be bought at the shop. If you did not find a yellow mask, then you can buy any other one and paint it at home or paste it over with yellow paper.
Another advantage of this costume is that the canary can easily turn into a firebird, for which all the queens will fight if the holiday scenario so requires.
Horse costume
You probably won't ever need to make a centaur costume, but if suddenly some teacher decides to arrange a children's party in the ancient Greek style, then borrow the idea from the photo below. We will tell you how to make an alternative horse costume.
In speci alty stores today sell overalls. They are very soft and look like plush toys. In this outfit, your child will look very cute. However, if you do not want to spend money on a costume for one evening, then you can make it yourself.
All you need is a jacket, preferably brown, with a hood, pants, fringe, feather boa, gloves or mittens. Sew the ears on the hood, and stretch the boa between them (this will be the mane). On trouserssew a boa tail on the back. Attach the fringe to the sleeves and legs at the ends. On the belt, you can attach a “saddle” made of fabric or pads with a belt. Put on mittens - hooves. Complete the look with the appropriate makeup and you're done!
This outfit is perfect for various holidays: Halloween, carnival… And it’s not worth talking about the New Year’s party in the year of the horse!
So we told you how to make two wonderful custom costumes for children's parties. Now sit back and take a look at these iconic pictures of a centaur and canary costume.
Attention! This is an example of how not to make a costume!
