Before decorating your costumes, you should carefully prepare for work. Then the process will be more fun and much faster.
Required materials and tools
You will need:

Sewing supplies are necessary when sewing suits with your own hands.You can also use unnecessary wardrobe items to create an original New Year's outfit.
Attention! You can use tinsel or Christmas tree rain as additional decorations.
Snowman costume
Cheerful snowmen are one of the main symbols of winter and the New Year. A boy in such an outfit will become the main character of the festive meeting.
To make all the components, you can use old wardrobe items. This could be pajamas, a sweatshirt and pants. The main thing is that it must be white.
For buttons from red fabric, cut out 3 small circles and sew along the edges. We stuff them with padding polyester and sew them up completely. We sew the finished buttons to the blouse. The outfit is almost ready.
The main detail of any snowman is the nose. Traditionally, a carrot is used as a nose. It can also be cut from red fabric. Measure out a small cone and carefully cut it out. Sew along the edge from the wrong side and turn it inside out. On the sides we mark two points for the elastic band. We make small holes and sew the elastic to the nose. We sew up the hole for the cotton wool with a small circle.
As decoration, you can add a cap made of colored paper, and tie a small strip of tinsel around your neck.
If you wish, you can sew the costume yourself. This process also does not take much time. You can use everyday items as a pattern for a blouse and pants.
Advice! The blouse can be made longer and more voluminous at the bottom.
All components are stitched using a regular stitch on a machine. We fold the bottom of the sweater and skip the seam, not reaching the end. We stuff it with cotton wool or synthetic padding. This results in a rounded tummy. We completely sew up the product.For decorations we use buttons, a carrot nose, and a cap from the method described above.
Pirate costume
Many boys love pirates and sea robbers. You can go to the celebration dressed as the legendary and beloved Captain Jack Sparrow.
Any striped T-shirt will work on top. The bottom of the T-shirt and sleeves can be trimmed in a zigzag pattern for added style. A mandatory element of the Sparrow was a vest. Here you can also use unnecessary attribute from the closet. Pointed edges should be trimmed to make them more rounded. For pants, you can use unwanted trousers, jeans or sports tights (red, black or blue).
The main element of a pirate's costume is a three-cornered hat. The base can be printed and cut out; it will be needed for the stencil. Using the blank, we cut out a cocked hat on non-woven fabric. For greater stability, you can glue cardboard on the reverse side.
For greater effect, add a few accessories. You can cut out the pirate coat of arms (skull and crossbones) from white non-woven fabric and stick it on the hat. Don't forget about the eye patch and pirate knife - faithful companions. With this outfit, any mischievous person will become a small copy of Captain Jack Sparrow.
Dwarf costume
Little plump gnomes often accompany Father Frost and his granddaughter. Therefore, such a costume will be very relevant at New Year's celebrations.
Reference! The process is easy, since products that are in any closet are suitable for the costume. You can wear a white T-shirt on top, and in addition, a vest in a bright shade. Bottom: shorts. It is advisable that the shorts and vest be the same color scheme.
The mandatory attributes of any gnome are short pants, striped knee socks and a cap.You don’t have to buy or sew the cap yourself. It can be cut out of colored paper or sewn from fabric. The top of the cap can be decorated with a pompom. Breeches can be made from any pants, you just need to shorten them and gather the bottom of the legs with an elastic band.
To complement the costume, a thick false beard is also added. The cute gnome is ready.
Cowboy costume
Many boys fell in love with the heroes of the Wild West. On New Year's Eve, you can make the dream of a little defender come true by dressing up as a brave and strong cowboy.
To sew trousers and a vest, you will need brown suede fabric. We take measurements for patterns using other products. It should be remembered that cowboys preferred flared trousers that did not restrict movement. We take measurements, stepping back a few centimeters from the main product, and cut it out. We pin with safety pins from the wrong side and skip a line on the sewing machine.
Don't forget about the fringe: cowboys preferred to decorate their costumes with additional accessories. On a piece of fabric, measure 1 centimeter sections and cut them out. Fringe can be sewn to the crotch seam of trousers, to a vest or shirt sleeves.
Accessorize with a pistol holster around the waist, a black hat and a thin bandana around the neck.
Advice! Instead of suede trousers, you can use old jeans.
Knight costume
Many boys are interested in the theme of the Middle Ages, inspired by stories from cartoons and fairy tales. The image of a brave and courageous knight is suitable for celebrating the New Year.
The clothing of a real knight was heavy and reliable chain mail. To create a festive outfit, silver or gray fabric is suitable. We cut out a kind of vest from it approximately to the middle of the thigh, make a cut for the head and sleeves.The bottom of the product needs to be further worked out: make unique cuts or cut out turrets.
The chest is decorated with the family coat of arms. To do this, you can print out the design you like and transfer it to fabric. The coat of arms stencil will also be useful when designing a shield. We transfer the drawings to bright fabric and cut out all the components. Sew to the cape. Any black sweatshirt or pullover will fit underneath.
The shield can be found in any warrior's toy box. Using a stencil we decorate the shield with the family coat of arms.
It remains to add the finishing touches - the sword and helmet. The costume of a faithful and brave knight is ready.
Advice! The shield and sword can be replaced with a crossbow and a bag of arrows.
Conclusion
Celebrating the New Year for every child creates a special feeling of a fairy tale and miracle. Carnival costumes of various heroes will help every mischievous boy remember the holiday as a special and important event.
