The image of a bunny was present at matinees back in the Soviet Union. A fluffy white suit looks very cute and bright on a boy or girl. To make a carnival outfit for a child, you don’t need to run to the store and buy a ready-made one. After all, it will be several times more expensive than the costume that you can make at home yourself.
To do this, you just need to buy the necessary material and get to work. The main feature of this outfit is that it is special and unique. After all, no one else will have this at the holiday. Let's figure out how to make a children's bunny costume with your own hands.
Necessary materials for a bunny costume for a boy (girl)
The list of necessary materials and tools will depend on the image.
The standard list of required materials includes:
- threads of white and black shades;
- thick white or gray fabric;
- faux fur tone suit;
- thick cardboard;
- linen elastic;
- pattern on paper;
- marker;
- padding polyester;
- felt for decoration.
To create a girl's outfit, you may also need a satin ribbon and beads. For decoration, you can sew a beautiful carrot.
To do this you will also need orange fabric and wire.
Also, costume attributes can be made from thick Whatman paper.
Advice! If cotton or satin fabric has been chosen, it is best to decorate the garment with fur, cuffs or wadding to complete the look.
What does a children's bunny costume consist of?
A children's bunny costume must be white or gray. The main attributes are the ears and tail. The ears can be made in the form of a cap or headband. The image will also be complemented by a large decorative carrot.
A bunny outfit can be made from overalls, an animal mask and ears. A good option would be to wear white thermal underwear with a ponytail. If you have a white shirt or turtleneck and white pants at home, then the suit is almost ready. The completed image will depend on the imagination and preferences of the child and mother.
Step-by-step instructions for making a bunny costume
To create the outfit we will need a white jumpsuit or T-shirt with pants.
Next you should do the following:
- We take a standard disposable round plate and trace it on white or milky felt.
- Glue or sew the resulting circle to the front of the outerwear. One part of the costume is ready.
- You need to sew a tail to your pants, which can be made from a purchased pompom. A ponytail made of wool filled with padding polyester also looks beautiful. To do this, you need to cut out a small circle of their fur or felt, and put cotton wool or padding polyester inside. Then sew the product in a circle. The tail is ready.
- Now all that remains is to put on two parts of the costume and the look is ready. There's just a little bit left to do. Make ears.
Options for a mandatory attribute - long ears
Long ears are one of the main attributes of a bunny.
Making them for a girl or boy is not difficult.
There are several options for making ears:
- The easiest and fastest option is to make ears from thick cardboard. To do this, you need to cut out two oblong ovals and paint them with sparkles, threads or beads.
- If you need to make a product that will bend. Then you will need wire and white cloth. We make the edging of the ears from wire and wrap them with fabric. At the end you need to sew the product in a circle. Finished ears can be attached to a headband or sewn to a hat.
- For girls, a good option would be bow-shaped ears. However, its ends should be well pointed. A large satin bow on the head will serve as an excellent decor for the image.
Advice! If you are not good at making an oval or the ears are not symmetrical, then you can use an iron or remote control as a basis.
For girls, it is best to make a beautiful headband or bow as a headdress. Beautiful curls and loose hair will look harmonious with the image.
For a boy, a hat or a cardboard version of the product with long ears is suitable.. Don't be afraid to experiment and add your own touches to the look.
Creating an image of a bunny for a boy at home is quite simple. This will require your imagination and a little time. The main thing to remember is that a white suit with ears and a tail should be gentle, soft and light. In such clothes, the child will be comfortable playing, dancing and having fun at the event.
