Here are a few tips on how to sew a New Year costume for a child:

Traditional costumes for kindergarten matinees are a bunny and a snowflake. As easy as pie.

For the snowflake dress, the central detail is a lush white skirt. The simplest option: a white gymnastic swimsuit is complemented by a skirt of tulle or tulle a la "ballet tutu". For decoration you can use rhinestones, Christmas tree "rain", silvery sequins, decorative white and silver feathers, tinsel. We decorate the hair with a diadem, a shiny rim or plaits with snowflakes. On the legs - white tights or knee socks, white shoes. Shoes can be decorated by gluing sequins or strasses.

Bunny. If you do not have time to sew a complex overall with a hood and ears, you can create a costume with a few recognizable details. The most difficult thing: from white fleece or plush we sew a cap with ears. For a basis it is possible to take a pattern of a cap for the newborn. Inside the ears, the best way is to lay an extra layer of fabric to keep the shape. The faster option - we make the ears from the rim with a spring barbel: the "eared" cover is sewn on the rim. Ideal if the child has shorts or trousers, overalls. In this case - to these panties we sew 2 details: behind - a tail, and on a breast - a bright carrot. Good additions to the costume can be white gloves with sewn cuffs made of artificial fur and a fur collar at the outfits.

Fairy costume is a dress of pastel tones with an overstated waist adorned with flowers. Flowers can be borrowed from my mother's wedding dress, buy ready-made, or make yourself. Flowers, too, will look good in the hair and shoes. Do not forget about the magic wand - glue a long pencil holographic wrapping film and decorate with a shiny sultan from the "rain". The dress can be complemented by small wings attached to the back.

Herringbone. On a dress with a long pompous skirt, a tinsel of green color is sewed round. The headpiece can be a cap-cap made of cardboard with tinsel sewn, or, for example, a diadem with a star. Now the herringbone can be decorated - use small unbreakable toys, bows, beads. Note that the child in the suit should be comfortable and safe - the Christmas tree will play with other children and sit at the table.

Little Red Riding Hood. The outfit consists of a white blouse, a corset with lacing, a fluffy skirt to the knee and, in fact, hats. The corset is simply a wide strip of dense black fabric with a sewn lining and lacing. The cap can be replaced with a red cape. White socks, sabot a la "wooden shoes", a basket with pies - the image is ready!

Very cute and touching look at the youngest children suits bees or ladybugs. It will require black tights, any clothing of red, or yellow - fit and dress, and overalls. We decorate the clothes with black circles or voices. Wings for ladybug can be sewn from fleece in the form of a double "raincoat" with strings. And, for a bee - wings on a wire frame, covered with any transparent fabric - from a tulle to a nylon - will approach. These images are well complemented by rims with spring "antennae."

Traditionally, the costume of an astrologer is popular. The main details are a cloak of black or dark blue fabric, a pointed cap with stars and a telescope. And, if you attach the fields to the hood, and replace the telescope with a magic wand - the sorcerer's costume will turn out.

Tsyganochka is a very charming image. It is enough to devote a little time to training to remember a few characteristic movements of gypsy dance. This room will delight guests at home and friends in the kindergarten. For the costume will need: a long skirt, the sun, sewn from prisborennyh ruches, a colored shawl over the skirt, a blouse with wide sleeves, large beads. Hair can be curled on curlers and decorate with a bright ribbon, or flower. Accessories: a deck of cards, a tambourine.

The costume of a pirate is for all time, and making it is simple enough. The basis of the image is a vest. It is even good if it is great for a child. Add the most worn jeans or trousers - they need to be cut off below the knee with uneven rags. Important headgear - it can be like a bandanna with "Jolly Rogers", and a cocked hat with a plume (it can be made from a paper). They complete the image of pirate accessories: a black bandage around their eyes, a plastic dagger, a pistol, or a sword. Tie a "pouch with piastres" to your belt, and put large chains on your neck, or a bright shawl. Very effective look boots and boots, which you can put on top of any shoes.

When choosing a suit for a New Year's holiday, always consult a child. Remember - he should like the image. Take care that the outfit is comfortable, do not hamper the movements. Do not use fragile parts to avoid injury.

Create a dress with a good mood - because the anticipation of the holiday prolongs the holiday itself.
