Dragon Wings Tutorial | Natural Kids Team My children are really into slaying dragons right now. If you come by our house in the middle of the day, you’re most likely to find them, sword in hand, running around screaming at dragons. And if you saw my toddler’s face when I handed him his very own pair of dragon wings to wear… It lit up! He put them on and off he went…With mama trying to get a good picture of this little beast! To make one for your little dragon you will need: A strong fabric; I used wool.Jewerly wire, but a hanger could work fineTwo bands of elastic (those in the picture were too short, I advice you to go longer)Tools: wire cutters, fabric scissors, safety pins Make your wire frame. Double your fabric and cut along your frame, leaving enough clearing for sewing. Sew the bottom part of the wings, leave to top open so you’ll be able to insert your wire frame. Flip your wings outside out and insert your frame. Close the top with an overstitch and, if you feel fancy, overstitch details.

Last-Minute Kids’ Owl Costume Oct29 by Ellen Luckett Baker By Ellen Baker Still looking for a Halloween costume for your kiddo?

Cutesy Crafts: Superhero Party Masks **Edit: I'm so glad everyone likes my superhero masks! I hope you will take a second and click here to subscribe. I've got lots of other templates/tutorials on my blog and more on the way!** Evan and Audrey's birthdays are coming up, and since they are only a week apart, we just have combined parties for now. This year's chosen theme is Superheroes and Princesses! They are just made of craft felt, thread, and 3/4 in elastic. First, cut out two of the overall shape in the main color. Next, cut your elastic to be about 14 inches long. Now sew around the whole outer edge of the mask and eyes with thread that matches the fabric. And here is the finished back. And of course Evan was SO happy to pose for the camera. Audrey, on the other hand, was more than willing to cheese it up for me and be Spidergirl. Going along with the superhero theme, we bought Evan this awesome Look and Find: Marvel Heroes book for really cheap on Amazon.com . I've got so many ideas for their birthday party!
Bluebird Costume Tutorial Little sister was happy to play bluebird to big sister’s Snow White, especially when the alternative was a bearded dwarf. My mother told me I could ABSOLUTELY NOT dress little sister as a bearded dwarf. So we are loving this sweet bluebird costume, especially for toddler types who are finicky about costume-wearing in general. Let’s start with the fuzzy little tunic, a great costume basic if you need one. 1. 2. 3. 4. and down side seams. 5. There you go. 6. 7. Tunic is done!
