Lady Bug Costume Craft Idea - Cool Wings DIY!

Antenna's Out Of Pom Pom's?

Halloween Fun!

    I had to come up with an idea for a costume that allowed me to be functional with my job as a preschool teacher. I wanted to stay in character all day, because the kids love that sort of thing. 

    I love ladybugs so... there you go. I had to figure out how to make a wing that might me used over and over. If your going to spend the time you might as well make it something that will be long lasting. 

    Watch the video and see what you think; Allow for 2 days in the making of this costume.

Lady Bug Wings DIY and Antennas

    I had the red material which I believe is felt, but needed more thickness with strength and flexibility. I used some mylar because it is very durable. It's not hard to find if you look online. You could also use a stiff pellon found at sewing stores, they use it to stiffen collars on shirts, etc. It comes in iron on as well, I think, which means no sewing!
