Description

GREAT FOR LITTLE ONES!!!

A Simple, Inexpensive, and Easy to Make Costume

I made my 15 month old son a frog costume and thought what a great Idea to make a pond out of his wagon so I could pull him around in it. This was so easy to put together and was such a head turner at the local halloween festival.

Materials

Felt, fabric, Hot Glue, fake flowers, fake insects, Rubber Duckies from Bath

Instructions

  • 1)Simply line a wagon with blue fabric (for the water) and glue green fabric (for the grass) around the edges

  • 2)Cut and Glue grass (green felt) around edges
    and cut a few lilly pads to glue on the water

  • 3) Attach fake plants, flowers, and insects (butterfly, dragonfly, bird) around border with hot glue

  • 4) Put your little Frog inside the pond.
    (frog costume is made up of all felt)

  • 300x250
    Tips for Taking a Great Photo:
    • Avoid clutter. Keep the background simple -- your costume is the star!
    • Daytime, natural light is best. If your area is bright enough, try taking the photo without the flash.
    • Upload a horizontal photo. If you crop the image on your computer, make sure you keep a landscape 4:3 aspect ratio.
    • For best results, make your image 1200x900 (or "save for web").
    • With a digital camera, you can take as many photos as possible and choose the best one. Have fun!
