kids lion halloween costume
Putting together a simple costume can still make a big roar! Creating a character or animal doesn't always have to be so literal. A simple t-shirt design paired with a mask makes it easier to decide on last minute and still have something to wear to a costume party!

Putting together a simple costume can still make a big roar! Creating a character or animal doesn't always have to be so literal. A simple t-shirt design paired with a mask makes it easier to decide on last minute and still have something to wear to a costume party! Step 1 Lay a yellow shirt flat and cut a wide “U” shape around the collar, creating a “bib”. Cut from the edge of one shoulder, down lower across the center (like a “U”) and back around to the edge of the other shoulder. Cut through both sides of the shirt. Step 2 Lay the bib flat and cut up towards the collar, creating skinny strips of fringe. Step 3 Once the cuts are finished, pull each piece of fringe so it gets thinner and creates a gap between the strips. Step 4 Layer the fringed over the top of your second yellow shirt like a bib (or necklace). Step 5 Now, cut out small felt triangles from various colors and attach to the un-cut shirt using fabric glue. Let dry. TIP: Place cardboard inside the shirt so the glue doesn't go through.
