Chunga-Changa costume made by hand from different materials

How to make a suit out of bags?

Chunga-Changa costume for a girl is easy to make with your own hands. Yes, and the materials for its creation are in every home.

In order to make the baby's skin dark, you can use black tights and a turtleneck. To make a skirt, take an ordinary plastic bag of a bright color, cut it so that you get a large rectangle. Try on the child's hips. If one package is not enough, then take the second. Stepping back 5-10 centimeters from the top of the bag, cut it with longitudinal lines, the distance between which should be two centimeters. Sew a button on one end, and make a hole for it on the other (this will secure the skirt to the child's body). By the same principle, make a fringe on the legs and arms. They are worn just above the knee and elbow.

For the second option for creating a costume from the package, you will need an elastic band. Cut the elastic band to the desired size and sew the edges. Put it on a chair. Now cut strips from the bags twice the required length and tie them to an elastic band, placing them tightly next to each other. Do the same with the rest of the outfit.

Fold the satin fabric in half widthwise. Bend each edge by five millimeters and sew. This is the future belt.
Start sewing ribbons inside the waistband, alternating different colors. Put the tape inside by a centimeter and make literally one seam with threads. This is necessary to secure it in place. When finished, cover with the second layer of the belt andsew with a sewing machine.
Insert the elastic inside and sew the edges together.
