During the holidays, parents are faced with the question of choosing a suit for a child. I want the chosen image to be original, and their child looked cute and did not merge with the rest of the kids, especially if it's a New Year's party, where almost all the girls are snowflakes, and the boys are "bunnies." In this case, you can choose for your kid a bee suit. He will be very funny and at the same time unusual, and the child will be satisfied with his way for the holiday. I would like to note that this outfit will suit both the boy and the girl. The "bee" costume can be made with your own hand at home. It's quite simple.
Striped base
The basis of the outfit can be a black dress or a black skirt with a turtleneck. All that a caring mother needs to create a bee suit is to sew the yellow horizontal stripes. For this, satin ribbons are perfect . Yellow stripes (ribbons of any width) are simply sewn to the black base. There are no clear limitations if parents have a yellow T-shirt and shorts, then the stripes can be made in black, it all depends on your capabilities. Remember, a suit for a child can always be made from available in the "arsenal" of improvised means, so let your imagination tell you what can be used from the wardrobe of the child for the benefit.
Bee Wings
To make the similarity to the chosen character complete, you need to make wings and antennae. To do this, you need to build a frame of thick wire, which should be bent in the form of a drop, and twist the ends together. Then you can make smaller droplets and attach them to larger ones, so they will look as much like the wings of this insect. In order to suit the bee was unusual, the wire frame should be covered with a transparent cloth of white or yellow color. The child will be delighted if you decorate the wings with paillettes, rhinestones or beads. If the fabric is not suitable, you can use tulle or normal nylon tights. Especially since the last to tighten the wire frame of wings is much easier than with any kind of fabric. In addition, this option is quite economical, and in the wardrobe of any mom there will certainly be tights that can be used for a costume. The junction of the wings should be tightened with a thread to look aesthetically pleasing, and the wire was not felt on the back of the baby and did not prevent him from having fun at the festive event.
Ties
Of course, the question arises as to how to fix the wings on the back of a restless child. To do this, you need to make neat strings. Again, you can use a satin black or yellow ribbon, the ends of which should be tied to the junction of the wings. It is necessary that they are the same size and they can be put on the back of the child. Also, the ends of the ribbons must be burned with a cigarette lighter: if this is not done, they will be showered. Be sure to level the wings when you put them on your child's back.
Antennae
To complete the bee suit, you must make her antennae. This is a very important detail, because only so your child will resemble the chosen character. Among the restless toddlers, Maya, a bee from a children's cartoon, enjoys special popularity, so the idea of creating such a costume will delight the child. Antennae make it simple enough. You should take an ordinary hairband, to which you will need to attach the wire and wrap it with threads or braid with lurex. You can attach small yellow pom-poms to the ends of the antennae.
That's all, the suit for the holiday is ready!
