To make a sorceress dress you will need the following materials:

Completing of the work
Using an elastic band, measure the child’s waist and cut it off. We sew both ends of the elastic using a sewing machine or by hand. We cut out ribbons from tulle. The length of each ribbon should be multiplied by 2. Fold each ribbon in half and thread the ends through the resulting loop. Within a few minutes the skirt will be ready.
We tie it on a belt light satin ribbon bow.
To decorate the skirt, small artificial flowers are suitable, which are attached to the material with glue..
As a top, you can use a top or a bright T-shirt, decorated with artificial flowers, rhinestones, tinsel or satin.

Cap
An indispensable element of a boy's suit. We roll up a tall cap from cardboard and fasten the edges with glue. We attach an elastic band above the ears to secure the headdress.
For decoration, you can cover the cap with satin fabric decorated with stars.
Fairy wings
Wings for girls are also made from cardboard. We cut out the blanks and attach the halves with glue. The elastic band acts as a fastener on the shoulders. It can be attached to the wings using a stapler. Tulle is glued onto the wings themselves to match the skirt or another shade.
Attention: the wings can be decorated with rhinestones of different shades and sizes, which are attached with glue.
An unnecessary wide accessory or a wide elastic band will serve as a headband. We measure the circumference of the child's head and sew the edges. We cut artificial flowers from the stem and attach them to an elastic band using glue.
