Sheep costume

Need:
Per vest: thin white
filc (or other non-fluttering fabric, or according to our improver ordinary white t-shirt), about 150-200 cotton balls, melting gun, piece of Velcro or ribbon to tie the vest
On the headdress: black o
rdinary headdress, a piece of white and black fillet on the ears, a needle and thread for stitching (not necessary), a melting gun, cotton balls

How to do it:
1.
Cut a simple classic vest from the white fillet and sew up the parts at the shoulders and sides. On the front parts you can put a piece of Velcro on the fastening, or sew ribbons to the binding. Fasten them along the entire length (strings down, center and up) so that the vest does not open for children.
Our tip: You can significantly facilitate and speed up this part of the production by using an ordinary white T-shirt instead of sewing a cardigan, which you simply cut off the sleeves.
2. Then attach cotton balls to the finished vest with the help of a melting gun, nicely one next to the other, over the entire surface.
3. From the white felt, cut out about 10cm wheel and glue it to the center of the headdress. Then stick cotton balls on it, add a few on the sides directly to the headdress.
4. Cut out the shape of your ears from the white and black felt and sew or glue both colors to each other. Then sagging one end of the ears so that the ears bend and shape. Then glue this end to the headband. "Mask" with additional cotton balls as needed.

You need: 5x tights the size of your baby (not necessarily all the same, but they should match each other), a color-matching long-sleeved t-shirt + a smooth cap, any thinner belt, a piece of white and black felt, hollow thread or similar filler, a piece of double-sided adhesive tape

How to do it:
1. First, stuff 4 tights with hollow thread – finish approximately at the level of the crotch, so that the stuffed tights do not stop after attaching to the tape.
2. Stretch the belt and wrap the top of the tights around it and secure a few stitches.
3. Cut out 2 large and 2 small eye ovals from the black and white felt. Glue them on each other, then attach them to the cap. If you do not want to destroy the cap and intend to continue using it, do it with double-sided adhesive tape. If it's a ejection cap, use glue or a melting gun.
4. Then put the baby in the last uns stuffed tights, matching T-shirt, attach a belt with padded tights to his waist, put on a cap and you're ready to go. The whole thing is easy to get to watch!

You need: brown wrapping or other paper, covering paper adhesive tape, headdress, piece of cardboard, 2 foam balls or polystyrene balls, 2 pieces of wider ribbon for straps, melt gun

How to do it: 
1. You're going to make two halves of the shell. Cut off a large piece of brown paper and squeeze it properly over the entire surface. Then start scrolling it from the corner. When you have a long enough handle, gradually twist it and twist it into the shape of a shell. Help yourself with the masking tape and continuously fasten the shell so that it does not untangle. Once the shell is ready, take the melting gun and glue it so that it sticks even without adhesive tape – then remove it.
2. In the same way, make the other half of the shell. Make sure that both halves are about the same size. He glues the two ulits together with a melting gun.
3. Then cut out a smaller square about the same width as the shell from the cardboard, then glue it to it. On the cardboard then glue two pieces of ribbon as straps, so that you will have from the cast a kind of backpack on your back 🙂
4.
All that's left is a head. Make the handles – take two pieces of paper and twist them and twist them so that they hold themselves tightly and stick to a height. Glue a polystyrene ball or ball to one end of the paper rod, and attach the other end with a melting gun to the headband. And the schmpm costume is ready.
