Hi! I'm Sarah of Sarah Jane Sews, where I blog about sewing (of course), knitting, and occasionally other craft projects.

I love making costumes -- since I've been blogging we've had a Jedi and a bee, Abe Lincoln, and the whole family as Harry Potter characters -- but we tend to decide what they'll be at the last minute. We're still finalizing plans for this year, so I thought I'd show you how I made my daughter's very first Halloween costume. Since this week is also International Babywearing Week, the ladybug baby carrier slipcover is especially appropriate!

Handmade Costumes: DIY Nacho Libre Costume Tutorial

You are in for a treat. These costumes are. amazing. Sabra from Sew a Straight Line is simply a magician with fabric. She's here to show you her amazing Nacho Libre costumes and she even has a tutorial for el Luchador mask! 

Good morning, Train to Crazy readers!  I’m Sabra and I blog at Sew a Straight Line.

I have been a Train to Crazy fan for years, and I’m excited to play along with Andrea’s Handmade Costume Series.  I have three boys with crazy imaginations and tons of energy.  I love making my kids costumes and encourage them to dress up year round.  It’s so fun to see them mix and match the costumes I’ve made them over the years, and come up with their own alter ego creations.

This past summer my kids watched Nacho Libre approximately 7.3 million times.  My four-year old now refers to tortilla chips as The Lord’s Chips.  All day long we hear “Eagle powers, come to me, please!”, and every meal is complemented by “mmm, good toast.”  So, in honor of Nacho and my sons’ obsession with him and Esqueleto, they designed, and I made them each their own luchador mask.

Handmade Costumes: DIY Dorothy Costume Tutorial

Sometimes classic costumes are the best. Stef from Girl Inspired is here with a gorgeous Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz dress tutorial. I love the little details!

Check out all the tutorials in the Handmade Costume series.

 Hi there, I'm Stef and I blog over at girl. Inspired.  I absolutely love making my three girls their Halloween costumes, but this year, I've succumbed to time pressures and ended up purchasing two of my girls' costumes.  When my seven-year-old told me she wanted to be Dorothy, though, it pulled at my DIY heartstrings a little too much.  

I just couldn't buy a polyester Dorothy dress from the costume aisle.  I was pretty sure I could whip something up quick.  And it would have been super fast if I didn't find myself staring at a million different trims trying to decide what to put where.  That really slowed me down.  In the end, I went with my initial instincts and today I'm going to share with you a tutorial for a dress that you could probably finish in less than an hour.  Ready?  

You will need the main material and a lining material - I used a really lightweight gingham for the top layer and muslin for the lining.  You will also need three measurements:  chest, underarm to waist, and waist to hemline.  Using my daughter's chest measurement, I cut the bodice pieces.  The front bodice piece width should be half the width of the chest measurement + 1/2" (1/4" seam allowance on each side).  To find the height of the bodice piece, measure from the underarm to the waist, factor in 1/4" seam allowance on the top and 1/2" seam allowance at the waist; then cut your piece at this length on the sides with a smooth curve up to the center.  I hope that's clear.  For the back of the bodice and lining, you will cut a simple rectangle that is the same width as the bodice front + 2 inches if you are going to add shirring as I did AND the length should be just the length from underarm to waist plus a total of 3/4" seam allowance.

 Stitch your bodice front to the bodice back along each side seam; repeat for lining.  Now, cut your skirt pieces.  I wanted a really full skirt so I cut two pieces selvage to selvage for the main skirt and two pieces selvage to selvage for the lining.  The length for the pieces was determined by measuring from my daughter's waist to just above her knee, with added length for seam allowances.  Join the short ends of the skirt pieces to form two tubes (one main, one lining).  Now, you're going to attach each skirt to its corresponding bodice piece.

 Now, we're going to join together the dress and lining and finish the top edge of the bodice all in one easy step.

If you are making a stretchy little dress that is easy to get on and off, you can use this shirring method.  If you're not familiar with shirring, it really is a cinch!  You can read more about it in my shirring tutorial.

Now, to add the classic Dorothy buttons, but with an easy halter strap:

Finally, you're going to finish your hems.  I loved the idea of having the fluffy petticoat look underneath the main dress.  I had a hard time deciding whether or not to add ric rac around the main dress hem or to add stripes with red trim toward the bottom of the skirt; in the end, I just did a plain hem and then added some nice old-fashioned eyelet trim to the hem of the underskirt.  

And that's it!  I put the dress over a tulle pettiskirt for extra fluff and added a little white eyelet bolero that was mine when I was a little girl.  Target stocked the glittery shoes and Toto in basket, thank goodness.  I have to say, I'm so glad I took the time to make this costume  and my Olivia is, too!

Thanks for having me, Andrea!  I am loving this Handmade Costume Series.  There is just so much fun creativity going on!  Happy Halloween!

Handmade Costumes: DIY Dwarf & Gnome Costume Tutorial

Toddlers and preschoolers look pretty adorable in dwarf & gnome costumes. Marissa from Rae Gun Ramblings is here with a great super queick and easy dwarf or gnome costume tutorial. It would go great with this gnome hat.

Check out all the Handmade Costume Series tutorials.

Hi everyone, I'm Marissa from Rae Gun Ramblings. Costumes are one of my all time favorite things to sew. I seriously use any excuse to dress up my nieces and husband in coordinating costumes, oh yes he's a trouper like that!

Halloween is my busiest time for my Rae Gun Etsy shop so I'm usually sewing non-stop (this year is no exception). A couple years ago after a lot of work on my older niece's Snow White costume I needed to throw something together for the little one. We decided she'd make the perfect Little Dwarf.

Handmade Costume Series: DIY Bumble Bee Costume Tutorial

Autie from iCandy Handmade is here with THE most adorable DIY homemade bumble bee costume tutorial I've ever seen!

Check out all the other costumes in the series!

Hey Train to Crazy!

I'm Autie (it's Autumn, but I go by Autie) and I blog over at iCandy handmade with my friend Jen.  I dabble in just about everything crafty, and when we were invited to be a part of this series, with my love of Halloween costumes, I jumped at the chance to whip up a doozie.

My daughter's costume of choice was to be a Bumble Bee...So, here she is!

Handmade Costume Series: DIY Princess Jasmine Costume Tutorial

Having a well stocked dress up box is fun for all kids. Leisel from Brown Paper Packages created a Jasmine costume and is here to show you how! Check out the dozens of other costumes in the Handmade Costume Series as well!

Hello there!  So excited to be a part of Handmade Costume Series.  Sewing for my three little girlies is one of my favorite things to do-- and sewing costumes is a close second!  My name is Leisel and I blog (occasionally) at Brown Paper Packages.  Come take a peek at a few of the other costumes I have made in the past.

After years of sewing for my girls, I am finally getting around to making them a few dress-ups.  This should have been on the list long, long ago, as store-bought dress-ups don't last longer than a few weeks.  I found my inspiration on Pinterest (where else?) a few weeks ago to actually make it happen.  The concept is to use a simple peasant dress to make various different princess dresses.  Genius!  First of all, The Sweet Dress by Leila and Ben is my absolute, most favorite pattern ever.  Second, even my youngest will be able to dress herself in a peasant style dress.  And lastly, I can whip out a couple of those babies in an hour!

My second oldest munchkin requested Princess Jasmine as the first of many. . .   and so, I thought I would share some of the process with you.

Hi everyone! Jessica here from Me Sew Crazy, and I love being here for the Handmade Costume Series. Seriously though, doesn't Andrea do such a fabulous job putting this together?!! I love following along, and am always so amazed what people come up with!  Its the ingenuity, the imagination, and the creativity that I see that absolutely blows me away. I have to admit something though...Making costumes? Not my favorite. *Gasp* Which is why I like things to be super simple, super easy, and of course cute whenever possible! And when they coordinate, it is like an added bonus.

Handmade Costume Series: DIY "No David" Costume Tutorial

I love costumes based on children's books! Terra from Mama Says Sew is here with a No David! costume tutorial. Perfect for all those little guys in your life! 

Check out the dozens of other costume tutorials in this series!

Hi there everyone! I'm Terra and I blog over at mama says sew. This year for Halloween, all my children are dressing up as book characters. David from the No David! books by David Shannon was perfect for my little guy. David reminds me of him a little, which is probably why I love these books so much. I don't know if I would have liked them as a child {I was more the teacher's pet type}, but having a little lovable guy like David has changed my opinion.

Handmade Costume Series: DIY Jailbird Costume Tutorial

Today Stacey from Oh Boy Oh Boy Oh Boy is showing us how to make a Jailbird Costume with her great tutorial! Such a fun DIY costume! Don't forget to check out the whole Handmade Costume Series!

When I was growing up, my mother ALWAYS made our Halloween costumes. I still remember our annual trips to the Joanne's to look through the costume patterns. It was so amazing to watch her "spin" the fabric into the character of my dreams.  I can't say my three boys feel the same way.  Alas, it's getting harder and harder to argue against store bought Transformer and superhero costumes that light up but I intend to do so for as long as possible.

Hi, I’m Narelle from Cook Clean Craft, sharing household tips, recipes and fun crafts, including sewing, cardboard and crochet.

Our house is seriously lacking in dress up clothes, so this series was just the motivation I needed. Thinking back to my childhood, who did I want to dress up as? Barbie, and there was no Barbie more pretty or elegant than Peaches’n’Cream.

So here’s the toddler dress-up version:

Handmade Costume Series: DIY "Going Batty" Headband Tutorial

Halloween is that time of year when half the population gets super excited to go all out and create a full costume. And the rest of us hope to avoid invitation to costume parties. Bev from Flamingo Toes has the ideal solution for you. Her bat headband tutorial is adorable and perfect for the minimalist. It's like you made an effort to dress up but not so much of an effort that you're covered head to toe in chicken feathers. Or whatever.

Hello Train to Crazy Readers!! I am so excited to be here today as part of Andrea's awesome Costume Series!! My name is Bev and I blog at Flamingo Toes. My kids are teenagers now - so I don't get to do full up costumes for them. I had a hard time coming up with something to share today! I came up with the idea to do a cute, fun headband that can be worn to Halloween parties or work - when you want to show off just a little bit of Halloween Spirit! I love how it came out!

Handmade Costume Series: DIY Alice in Wonderland Costume tutorials

Sumo's Sweet stuff is showing us how to make cute coordinating Alice in Wonderland costumes for sisters. What's cuter than a little Mad Hatter, Alic and the Cheshire Cat? If you enjoy these Alice in Wonderland tutorials don't forget to check out the rest of the Handmade Costume Series!

Hi everyone!

I’m Sumo (or Summer if you wanna get formal) and I blog over at Sumo’s Sweet Stuff. My blog has mostly turned into a sewing blog, but I do throw in the occasional craft or recipe every now and then. I’ve got three little girls, so sewing for all three of them is partially to blame for that!

My girls are all pretty young still, so I am able to get away with making them dress in coordinating outfits. I plan on doing it for as long as I can! (You can see more about how I dress them here). Naturally, I wanted their Halloween costumes to coordinate as well. Sometimes it can be tricky finding things for three girls to be together. But after we checked out Alice in Wonderland from the library a couple of months ago, I knew I had their costumes figured out!

My oldest is my girliest and our blondie, so she is going to be Alice. My baby is just little and cute, so she is going to be the Cheshire Cat. My middle girl is a redhead – in every stereotypical sense of the word! So what better costume for her than to be the Mad Hatter? I’m going to show you what I did for all of my girls, and how I like to use things that they will be able to wear in real life as well.

Let’s start with my Mad Hatter, shall we?

I have 4 little munchkins, so you can guess that Halloween is an exciting time around our house. As I thought about what I would make for this series, I simply went to my closet to shop..(well, actually to an old bin of maternity clothes) and what I found inspired me promptly to make an entire outfit out of things I already had. I didn't have to go to the store for anything..thus why my project is called "Owl for free"..or "All for free" .:)

Handmade Costume Series: Ruffleump Dress

Welcome Sewing Mama RaeAnna with this adorable little circus elephant dress tutorial! What a cute way to dress up a little baby girl. Check out all the other costume tutorials in the series as well!

Hello Train to Crazy readers!!!  My name is RaeAnna and I blog at sewingmamaraeanna.blogspot.com!  I am mommy to 3 year old boy Christian and 9 month old girl Eva Mae and we live in the Nashville, TN area!    I am so excited to guest post - I've been following Andrea and several other sewing blogs over the past year and I've learned so much from such creative bloggers! I'm excited to hopefully contribute to the craftiness - especially at costume time!!!

I call this tutorial my "Ruffleump" costume because I was trying to think of what I wanted to dress my baby girl and her brother for our fall festivities in October! :)  The circus came to mind and I thought my boy could be some sort of circus animal trainer or ringmaster and baby girl could be an animal!  I LOOOOOVE ruffles so of course I had to include lots!  And then "elephant" and Winnie the Pooh's "Huffalump" came to mind and I thought that would be the perfect word to morph with "ruffle".......and there you have my etymology of the word - "Ruffleump!"  LOL!

Hi there!! I'm Jess from If Only They Would Nap! You can find me there drinking lots of coffee and sewing for myself and my three little boys. If you're in the market for some DIY maternity pants or to make some prefold cloth diapers, those are two of my most popular tutorials.

When I asked my almost five-year-old what costume he wanted to wear for trick-or-treating this year, he didn't even have to think about it. "An elephant. And make it yourself, Mama, okay?" Well, if I must... So, if your house needs an elephant for your dress-up box too, here's how you can easily make one of your own. I find a lot of my fabrics, especially for costumes, by upcycling clothing that I find at thrift stores or that we no longer wear. [Go ahead and take a look at a few costumes that I've done in previous years... it's alright, I'll wait for you right here] Of course, you can just as easily use fabric from the store to make this.

Hello!! I'm Cherie from you & mie and I looooooooove handmade costumes! So when Andrea was looking for people to share a costume tutorial, I could not resist! Over the last several years I've made quite a few costumes including a Totoro costume for my daughter (it was a big hit!) and several others you can see here, including Russell from the movie, Up. But I'm a total procrastinator and also super indecisive, so I haven't even started figuring out what my daughter, Yuki, will be for Halloween this year. So in the meantime, I thought I'd whip up a simple costume using only materials I already had a home. The Rain Cloud costume!

Hello all!  I’m Christie from A Lemon Squeezy Home.  I’m excited to be here today as part of Andrea’s series.  What a wonderful idea to get a ton of fun dress-up items for the kiddos!  My kids love our dress-up box, and it looks like I might have to add to it after seeing everyone’s tutorials. Today we’re going to keep it really simple.  I’m going to show you how to make Daniel Larusso’s headband from The Karate Kid.  I think the correct term is a hachimaki.

You can purchase these for about $10.00 (shipped) online, but I figured they would be so easy to make, and you probably even have everything you need in your house already! Let’s get started! You’ll need: -printed flower design, download HERE (I used my silhouette software to trace the image HERE).  You can resize the flower to make it bigger or smaller according to how large or small a headband you are making.  This size is good for about 4-9 year olds.  Ish.  :) -black fabric or black acrylic paint -paint brush -8” x about 44” piece white fabric (I used cotton) -pencil with an eraser in nearly new condition (so the sides aren’t worn down) Fold the white piece of fabric in half lengthwise and crease the middle so you know where it is. Center the flower underneath the fabric and trace with a pencil (or something that might erase better—I had a hard time getting my pencil marks off where the paint didn’t cover it).  Or you can trace it onto freezer paper and cut out the shape. Place a sheet of paper underneath and start painting.  You can either free-hand it and like I did, or you could cut this shape out of freezer paper, iron the freezer paper on, and paint.  That would be easier and probably faster, but I thought it would be faster the way I did it.   It probably wasn’t.  Next, start marking with a pencil (starting about 1/2” away from the flower) every 1”, then another line 1” away from that.  My dots aren’t as close together as the real version, so you can make your dots closer if you’d like. Dip your eraser in the black paint and start making dots over the pencil markings in the above picture (make sure there is paper beneath your fabric again).  I did 8 columns of dots on either side of the flower.  Once the paint has dried, fold the short ends under 1/4”, then another 1/4” and sew.  The ends are now finished.  Almost done! Now all you do is fold in half so the long ends match, and sew about a 1/4” seam down the whole long edge. Iron the seam flat as picture below. Turn right side out and you are done!  Since my 8 year old received the 1984 version of Karate Kid for his birthday, he’s been really into Karate.  And was happy to oblige for many, many pictures. “Mom!  Take a picture of me doing this move!” Thanks for having me today, Andrea! 

Thank YOU Christie! Thanks for showing us how to make a Karate Kid headband!

Handmade Dress Up Series: DIY Word Girl Costume Tutorial

Welcome to the Handmade Dress Up Series! Like what you see? Please PIN it or Stumble it! Thanks!

Hi all you awesome Train to Crazy readers!

My name is Dacia & I blog with my sister over at Creative Mommas.
I love to create and I share all things I create on our blog.  I receive so much creative inspiration from the blogosphere, so why not share the love!  On our blog we have tutorials, recipes, parties, sewing, crafting, home decor, photography & so much more.  We also have an Etsy shop where we share some of our sewing talents.  Come browse our blog and see if something inspires you.

Today I'd like to share my Word Girl costume tutorial.
It's pretty simple and you, too, can whip these out in an afternoon!

I bought long sleeve red shirts & pants at Walmart for like $3 or $4 a piece.

The first thing I did was find the word girl design on the Internet and I printed it out in the size I wanted.

Then I ironed on HeatnBond to the back of my yellow fabric.

Next, I traced my design on the back of the fabric, (on the Heatnbond paper) & cut it out.

After, I took the paper off the back of the design...

and ironed it on the shirt with the shiny side down.

For an extra hold, I stitched all along the outside and inside of my design. And there you have it, one Word Girl shirt!
But of course I couldn't stop there, Word Girl has a cape too. For the cape, I cut out a large rectangular piece of fabric. (I just held it up to my girls and made sure I liked the length.) I hemmed the sides and bottom of the cape to finish the edges. Then I folded down the top, making sure there was enough room for my elastic.
Next I stitched along the top and bottom of my fold. For the elastic, I measured it around my girls' necks, cut it and threaded it through the top of the cape. Once I got the elastic threaded far enough through, I made sure to zig zag stitch the elastic at one end. After threading it all the way through, I zig zag stitched the other end to keep the elastic secured. The last thing I added to the cape were snaps, two to be exact. And that's it, all done! Two word girl outfits in one afternoon & two very happy girls!

Here are a few other things from our blog:

My family is BIG into Halloween & we usually do themed costumes and all dress the part.

Last Halloween Harry Potter was the theme & I made robes so the kids could be Harry Potter characters.

And here is a Halloween wreath I made for my door last year.

But wait, there's more than just Halloween on our blog.

My sister and I stenciled this wall together.

And this is my awesome Craigslist find that I refinished.

Here's a teacher appreciation gift idea that I shared on our blog.

And here's a party I planned this year for my daughter.

Thanks so much to Andrea for allowing me to visit her awesome blog & share my tutorial!

Welcome Jess! Thanks for teaching us how to sew this darling Mary Poppins Jolly Holiday dress!

Hey, all you crafty costumers! I'm Jess, from Craftiness is not Optional (insert picture, hehe)...

...and I love sewing costumes for my kiddos! This year my oldest daughter had a Mary Poppins birthday party, so of course she needed a Jolly Holiday dress to wear!

She looks pretty darn cute in it, I've gotta say.

Of course, the circle skirt is very spin-worthy!

I love the trims-on the sleeves, and cummerbund.

With bows on the skirt. :)

So, I used this tutorial for the basic dress construction. 

I used sheer fabric for the sleeves and lengthened them. (and added trim) 

Left off the waistband, but made a cummerbund. (instructions below)

I made a simple "bib" by sewing two rectangular pieces of my sheer material right sides together, on 3 sides. Turned right side out, and sewed closed the bottom, turning raw edges in. Then I gathered it down the middle, sewed it to the dress, and then tacked it down at each corner with a few stitches, and added the ribbon bow.

Now for a few pics and notes about how I made the cummerbund.

First I cut out two pieces shaped like this, that came to a point in the middle, and were wide enough to fit around her waist. I ended up cutting some off in the end, but that's easy to do later.

On one piece, I laid out 5 pieces of ric rac like so, and then sewed them down, sewing straight down the middle.

Then I took some pre-made piping, and pinned it along each edge, with the piping towards the middle.

I clipped the piping at the bottom there a little bit, to fit better around the little point.

Then, using a zipper foot, I sewed AS CLOSE as I could to the piping. Like, really close.

Then I pinned the other red piece right sides together, and sewed (with my zipper foot still) close to the piping again. It wasn't hard to tell where it was, I just manipulated the fabric a bit so it would stand out better. Leave the ends open.

No pics of the rest, but I turned it right side out, checked my piping to see if I needed to restitch anything, and then pressed it. Then I figured out where I needed to place my velcro to fit the Sadester. I cut it where I needed, serged the ends, turned them under and stitched over the ends, then sewed on my velcro. All done!

Hope you like it! Happy Trick or Treating!

Here are a couple more dress up projects I've done!

Handmade Dress Up Series: DIY Silk Butterfly Wings Tutorial

Welcome Carrie! Thanks for sharing your silk butterfly wings tutorial!

Hello all! I'm Carrie from This Mama Makes Stuff, where I blog about refashioning & running, raising comapssionate kids & crocheting, thrifting and triathlons. I am so happy to be part of Andrea's Handmade Dress-up Series (and I love that I got to meet her in person last week)! Dressing up is a year-round activity in our house and these wings have been a favorite for years. Unlike wire wings that can get bent up pretty easily, these ones can be stuffed into the dress up box and still look great for years of dress-up fun. Kids also love the way the fabric feels when you "fly".

Inspired by silk wings I saw in a catalog, these butterfly wings are a favorite item in the dress-up box. These specific wings will fit most kids ages 2-8. Here's how to make them: Gather your materials: 44" square silk scarf (Dharma Trading Co), 36" piece of elastic for straps, two 5 1/2" pieces of elastic for wristbands, 10 1/2" x 3 1/2" piece of fabric. Dye the scarf.

RIT dye, though not the best, is definitely the most readily available. You can check out Dharmatrading.com for more options.

For two-toned wing, gather scarf in the middle.

Fold in half and dip in color 1.

Then dip outside edge in color 2

Rinse and dry scarf as instructed on dye instructions. Once dry, iron crease down center of scarf.

Sew gathering stitch down the crease line you just made- edge to edge

Add 2 more rows of gathering stitches on each side of original stitch.

 

If you have a fine machine needle, place stitch lines 3/4" away from center. If you don't, place stitches 1/2" away from center (this is what I did).

Gather all three stitches.

Take piece of fabric and fold over raw edges to form "body"

Finished body should equal 10" x 1 1/2". You can also use a wide piece of heavy ribbon for the body, folding under each raw end.

Pin body to gathered center of wings.

Edge stitch body in place around the entire piece of fabric (or ribbon).

Sew 36" piece of strap elastic together to form loop.

Pin flattened loop to top, center of wings.

Stitch straps in place following same stitch lines as "body"

Add wristloops to top corners of wings.

To do this, lay wristloop on right side, matching edges, rolling over top of wing. Pin in place.

Stitch wristloop in place on each top corner.

Pull loop to outside and see the nice clean finish!

Now you're ready to fly away!

Welcome Jessica! Thanks for the wonderful boa tutorial! 

Hi everyone. I am Jessica from Me Sew Crazy, and I am super excited to be on board with Andrea at the Train to Crazy for the Handmade Dress Up Series! With two little girls in the house, our 'dress up trunk' sees lots of action. I never know what I am going to see come out of that room - a princess, chef, movie star, explorer, detective...and the costume changes are endless! Sometimes I will even get a princess that loves to cook, with a sick pet who needs a vet. Lol. It just warms my heart to see the imagination on my two girls! That is why I am super excited to be here with today's post...

No matter what costume my girls decide to dress up in, there is ALWAYS a boa involved! Doctor with a boa? Check. Explorer with a boa? Check. You name the occupation, any my girls will prove to you that a boa is part of the required uniform!

This is a NO-SEW project, and has the potential to use up TONS of your fabric scraps! Let's Get Started: Materials: Approximately 1 yard total of fabric Instructions:

1. Cut 1 piece of fabric 1"W x 60"L (or whatever length you want your boa to be), and cut a whole bunch of 1"W x 8 - 10"L fabric scraps (mine total about 1 yard of fabric). 2. On your long strip of fabric, tie off one of the ends.

Now we are going to start adding the fabric scraps to the long strip.

3. Taking your fabric scraps, start tying them onto the long strip - with a single knot in the middle. 4. Then push the scrap down, and keep pushing the scraps down as you tie them on, until they meet the knot at the end and all bunch up. Continue doing this until you reach the desired length of your boa. Once you have added all of your fabric scraps, tie off the other end of the fabric strip. And you are finished!

Now go have fun with it!!!

Thank you so much again for having me here today Andrea! And to all you Train to Crazy readers, I hope you enjoyed this tutorial and will stop by my blog sometime at Me Sew Crazy and say hello!

Handmade Dress Up: DIY Peacock Tutu Tutorial

Simple Skirt Tutorial

I was so excited when Andrea asked me to play along in this super fun series! You see I tried my hand for the first time making my kids costumes last year. However I am notorious for last second costume finding/making. I finished my kids costumes in the car on the way to our halloween party. (awesome) So this invite was a prefect way to force me to make them early. The only hard part was figuring out what in the world I should make...

 Image sources: one two three

When I was struggling to come up with an idea for my daughter, my son suggested she be an animal. (he is so helpful) So I thought of my favorite animal and of course it has to be the beautiful, elegant and vibrant peacock.  I wanted something whimsical and fun that would still resemble the peacock. So for part of her costume I made a Peacock tutu. 

With fun bright colors and a scattering of "peacock feathers" going down the back. The tutu is nice and full in the back and bare in the front to mimic the look of a real peacock. So would you like to make one yourself?

I started by making a tutu. Which I am pretty sure everyone and their best friend has done a tutorial on how to make one, so we will skip that part. I used THIS tutorial for mine. I only put the tulle in the back of the band leaving the front empty. I did brown and tan on the sides and then it faded to blue and green in the middle. I did this to closely mimic the peacock feathers. 

Then I made some feathers for the back. 

Buy a Royal Blue Tulle Spool , Teal Tulle Spool, Lime Green Tulle Spool, or Brown Tulle Spool. Don't forget your assorted pack of felt.

 I started by cutting out the base of the feather in brown felt and then I cut out the shapes for the "eye" looking part of the feather. I used lime green, teal and royal blue felt for the pieces.

 Then I started by sewing the green piece to the brown piece by sewing around the edge, and then sewing lines outward for detail on the feather.

Then I just used my glue gun to glue the two blue pieces on to the feather. 

Then I tacked the feathers scattered on a ribbon. 

I added the ribbons to the back of the skirt. 

Then you are done with the peacock tutu!

It's ready for your little one to flounce around in all day for dress up fun, or for the perfect little halloween ensemble. 

Where she is sure to look like a darling little peacock.

Come stop by our blog anytime to see the rest of the peacock costume, my son's "Hawkeye the archer" costume or many other projects! 

We would love to have you!

Or, consider buying Natural Peacock Tail Feathers ! How fun would that be?

Do you have a superhero in your house? Kate is here to show you how to make superhero wrist bands! Thanks for the tutorial!

Hi everyone! I'm Kate from see kate sew! 

I blog about sewing, crafts, fashion and more. I really love ruffles! I share new tutorials each week on my blog. Some of my favorites are this vintage suitcase chair, the scrap map and a ruffle shower curtain.  I have a little boy who is just starting to get into the age where it will be fun to dress him up, so this series is great!

 Today I'm sharing an easy tutorial for superhero cuffs! Because a superhero is not complete without them!

Materials:

3 colors of felt

velcro

printable pieces

First print out your template and cut out two cuff pieces and a star for each cuff. The template is sized for a small toddler, so if you have a bigger kiddo, just make a larger shape. 

Stack the two cuff pieces and topstitch them together all the way around at 1/8-1/4"

Sew the star in the middle.

Your velcro should be as long as the short edge. Sew one piece of the velcro to the front of you cuff and the other piece to the back of the opposite side.

Velcro it together and you've got one little cuff!

Now repeat for the other side and go save the world!

You can even switch up the stars for something else like hearts or lightning bolts!

Thanks for having me here Andrea! And thanks for reading my little tutorial! Come over to see kate sew and check out some of my other tutorials!

Do you have a little princess in your life? Bev is here to show us how to sew the adorable princess costume set she made her lucky neice. Thanks for the princess tutorial!

It's been a while since my kiddos were into dress up clothes - but when they were little it was pretty much a daily activity! I made a bunch of fun things for my daughter - and picked up some great things on Halloween clearance (you can get great things for 90% off after Halloween!!). I have two sweet nieces that I love to sew for - so I thought it would be fun to make an outfit similar to one I made my daughter when she was little. It's easy to put on and fun to wear! It's a little Princess set - with skirt, capelet, and headband - all with fun pink sequins to dress it up. (If you're going to be a princess - you need some bling right??) My nieces live in Arizona - so you'll have to just imagine how cute this will look on. ;) This is a super simple set - it comes together really quickly!! You can make it with any fabric - but I love using the inexpensive satin that is in the fabric store now for Halloween. To make the whole set, you'll need a little less than a yard of satin, a roll of sequined elastic, a roll of sequin trim, and coordinating ribbon. (All came from Joann's) To make the capelet, cut out 2 large half circles. This is easiest to draw out by tying a string to a pencil, then holding the string in the top center and drawing with the pencil in a half circle. The radius of mine is 4" for the top, 12" for the bottom, you can easily adjust this for your little ones. I'm making this for a 3 year old. Sew the pieces right sides together, leaving a small opening for turning. Clip the corners and curves before turning right side out. (I must apologize for the background on this tutorial - I thought this gray polkadot would be a cute contrast to all the white satin, but after scrolling through all these, I am slightly dizzy. Nice.) Turn the capelet right side out and press. Topstitch around all the sides and curves. Trim all but the top inside curve with the sequin trim. I used a heavy duty needle and had no problem sewing right down the center of the trim. Trim the inside half circle with your pretty ribbon, leaving the ends long enough for tying. For the skirt, I cut a long piece of satin 15" x 30". Place the two short sides right sides together and sew. Make a small hem along the bottom by turning under twice and sewing. Zigzag around the top of the skirt to cut down on the fraying. Cut a length of sequined elastic the same length as your little one's waist measurement. Sew the two ends together. Pin the elastic to the skirt, stretching it to the satin as you go. Sew on the elastic, lining it up with the top of the skirt. Stretch the elastic as you go, when you release it, it will gather up the skirt. Sew the ribbon from the capelet along the hem of the skirt for a little more trim. Super easy right?? I love that it's easy for them to pull on or take off themselves. You can easily whip up a matching headband too - just measure out with the sequined elastic how much you'd need for an elastic headband. Sew the ends together and add a sweet satin rosette! That's it!! A super cute, easy outfit that is perfect for a princess, a bride, or even a fancy nurse in a pinch. ;) I hope you like it! Andrea thank you Soooo much for having me! I am loving this series - so many cute ideas!!
