We make a "squirrel" suit with our own hands

Every child always knows, in the costume of a hero or a beast, he wants to be at the New Year's carnival. In this article we will talk about how to make a costume "squirrel" with your own hands.

Basic

Begin preparation of clothing is necessary with the most important attire. It can be a dress, a skirt with a jacket or even a trouser suit. There are many options, how to sew a squirrel suit and how it can look in the end result. However, an important point: it is much better if the clothes are orange, because such a squirrel looks on all children's drawings. But do not put the baby completely in all monochrome, so it will be uninteresting. For example, a girl's golfs can be white or gray, so the breast of a forest animal may look like. It is also good for a child to wear white or light golfers or pantyhose so that the costume is smart. It is necessary to take care of shoes, they must at least with something go in the tone. If there is only dark shoes, the child in the handle will need to give a basket of dark color, in which the squirrel can collect nuts.

Ears

When we are going to make a costume "squirrel" with our own hands, we also need to take care of how the ears of this beauty will look, because they distinguish this animal from other forest inhabitants. It is worth recalling that the ears of a squirrel with tassels, so they should also look on the child. To do this, you can sew ordinary triangular ears (which are attached to the hoop), but only on top of the corner insert a little nap (even with a conventional brush for paints). Everything, the ears for the costume of the squirrels are completely ready!

Tail

What carnival costume will the "squirrel" do without a tail? This is a very important detail, which should not be forgotten. However, to make a tail for this animal is not so easy. We must remember that in these rodents it is almost always beautiful and raised with a bend. To make such a tail, you will need a belt that will be on the waist of the child, a wire structure, and also a fur. The wire is attached to the belt (made in the form of an oval, slightly pointed at the ends) so that it can be pulled on the fur sewn along the edges. The height of the structure is approximately 45 centimeters (counting on a 5-year-old baby). Fur also need to wrap the belt. The tail itself is unlikely to hold up perfectly, so you can make a thin fur out of the fur, which will be worn as if the back of the child is not a tail, but a backpack. That's it, the product is ready!

Makeup

Preparing a "squirrel" costume, the mother can make her own makeup and make her own. It can be special face paints, which will need to draw at least a black dot on the child's nose - the nose of the animal. But you can also make a girl light make-up, babies like it very much. It is worth noting that in this version of the New Year's costume one should not be afraid of bright colors, because a squirrel can be a coquette who is not afraid to wear red lipstick.

Tinsel

Preparing the New Year costume "squirrel" with their own hands, it is worth remembering that it should be at the maximum festive. New Year's tinsel - that's what the apparel will decorate. She can sew the edges of clothing (if they are not trimmed with fur), you can hang New Year's rain on your neck in the form of beads. The outfit is completely ready!
