DIY fairy costumeTo get this image, you need to look at the character and find his image. You can consult with your daughter on how best to complement the costume and what to add to it. The main elements in it are a dress, a skirt, wings and a magic wand. Making wings and a wand is not difficult. Particular attention should be paid to the main part. Prepare all the necessary tools, fabric, use your skills and imagination and start creating. We offer detailed instructions for ease of use.

What is needed for making

Before you start sewing, you should prepare everything you need for manufacturing:

  • scissors, measuring tape;
  • a set of threads and needles;
  • the fabric should be light and create a feeling of airiness;
  • wire for the wing frame;
  • transparent fabric with a pattern;
  • bows, beads and other decorative elements to your taste.

How to sew a dress

The dress is made in several stages and consists of two layers. First, sew the thick fabric in a circle and insert an elastic band into the waistband. Sew the fabric so that there is a wave throughout the entire circle; to do this, make special folds every 6–10 cm. The bottom layer is ready. Now make another belt, a wider one, and sew to it a lighter fabric made in the shape of petals in a circle. Each petal should have two edges pointing up and down to create the base of the dress and its waist.

The result is a suit with a petal-covered top and a wavy skirt.

Winx wings

wingsFor this purpose we use light wire of the required length. By bending it, you can give it the desired shape and make the wings irresistible.

After you have created a figured frame, cover it with thin fabric and decorate it with sparkles, paint it with light varnish and attach beads, silk butterflies and small ribbons. Then the entire structure must be attached to the back or belt of the dress.

IMPORTANT! Try not to use too much wire, this will make the wings very heavy and will not allow them to hold up. Round off any sharp edges and apply adhesive tape or tape to them to avoid tearing the fabric and cutting the skin.

Making a magic wand

Magic wandThere are several ways to make this important element. The simplest and most beautiful thing is to create a wand with a big star.

Find any suitable small stick and attach a star to it. It can be made from pink fabric and filled with cotton wool or synthetic material. Paint the product with varnish and glue glitter.
