Holidays are always a joy and a reason to go in search of an outfit for a particular event. Banal costumes have long gone out of fashion, and original ones are too expensive in stores. So, there is a reason to occupy yourself with an interesting and at the same time useful thing - creativity. Using your imagination, you can get many options for creative costumes. If your child has a matinee or some other celebration, then this article will help you work on your future outfit.
Today we will look at how to make a frog costume with your own hands. The whole process will take place in three stages, which will be characterized by a certain type of work on the various parts that make up the frog costume for the girl. A pattern, which is noteworthy, is not required, since the costume is quite simple and does not require special skills in working with a sewing machine. Let's move on to creating the outfit, dividing the work into several steps.
Parts of the head
There are several ways to represent the head of a frog. The first way: you need to take a bandage for your head and put a piece of foam in front of you. From this material we will cut out our future eyes, which we will cover with a large layer of whitepaint, highlighting the pupils with black circles, after which we process the resulting material with a glossy varnish. After the eyes are dry, you can glue them to our bandage.
Second way: instead of a bandage, we need a hood of a jacket or sweatshirt. Eyes on your chosen clothes will be glued after the same procedure for creating them, as described above.
Third way: an ordinary baseball cap will act as the basis for attaching the eyes. They are also glued to it, and they are all made using the same technology. Regardless of which method you choose, frog costumes will look spectacular and unusual.
Making paws
As you know, the paws of a toad have a webbed appearance. In order to recreate them, it is necessary to take a cloth, on which we will cut out a sketch of the paw along the contour, additionally cutting out a strip for the wrist, with which we will fix the resulting part of the costume on the child’s hand. After everything is cut out, it is necessary to glue Velcro on the strip, with which it will be attached. Another way to create frog paws: you need to take ordinary knitted gloves, which will be the basis of the future part, and small triangles need to be glued between the fingers, which will create the impression that these are paws. Frog costumes are very often created using this element.
Frog costume base
As it has long been clear, the main element of the costume is the main clothing. As it can be used jeans, leggings, t-shirts. Forto achieve a greater resemblance to a real frog, it is necessary to spray white paint on the abdomen, and dark on the back. In addition to tight clothes, you can also use a green dress, which will look original, since frog costumes do not necessarily imply a rough base. Also for basic clothes, night pajamas are suitable, which will most of all resemble a frog look.
Result
After all the equipment is ready, you can add a twist to the image and apply makeup to your child, which will emphasize the features of the little "frog". Frog costumes will look very original at any holiday, and they are suitable for children as an outfit for a matinee, and for adults as a role in a holiday. Creating such an image at home is very easy and inexpensive. It turns out to be very easy to surprise everyone and please your child.
