My daughter wanted to be a scarecrow and I thought that it would be an affordable and fun costume to make myself. At a local craft store I picked up some raffia ($2), bandana ($1- if you have extra fabric lying around this would be FREE), 2 different colors/patterns of fabric (again, free if you have it on hand already. For us it was $3 for both), felt in light and dark tan (about $1 for a few sheets), a fake sunflower (on sale for $.50) and face paint ($3). I also needed a hot glue gun, which I had on hand and some old clothes. For the bandana around her neck I cut up the raffia to the sizes I wanted and glued it to the underside of the bandana. Then I cut the head of the sunflower off and glued that to the front. This could be tied and untied (therefore removed if it was bothersome) easily. Next, I cut strips of the felt and glued it to cuts of ribbon to fit her wrists and ankles. I randomly placed the two different colors of felt to make it look more natural. I glued them to ribbons instead of her shirt and pants so that her clothes could be reused after dress-up time was over, since I didn't really have any "old" clothes to use. These could easily be pinned together and removed quickly and were made to look like straw coming out of her shirt and pant legs. I used leftover raffia, tied it with ribbon and pinned it to her pockets so more straw would be coming out of her pockets. Using the leftover fabric I cut pieces and pinned them to her pants for patches and tied one around each pig tail. Last, we painted her face to look like a scarecrow. This costume can easily be customized for a boy or girl in a variety of styles and you don't even have to ruin any nice clothes! This costume was a hit everywhere we went!! ______________________________________________________________ Costume Submitted By:
Obviously I got this idea from the Wizard of Oz. I love that movie and so does my son Tyler. He already had the shirt and coveralls. I took a few patches of fabric I had around the house and ironed them onto the coveralls. We then took some fake straw and sewed it into my garden hat and onto the sleeves of the shirt as well as the pant legs. Overall, this costume came out really well and my little Tyler was tickled to death to have such a great costume. It even won first place at my church's costume contest. ______________________________________________________________ Costume Courtesy Of:
