Calling all crafty people!
Jun. 29th, 2008 08:08 pmOk, I'm panicking.
Luci's ears/horns and tail and yellow leggings I ordered for her giraffe costume still have not come. I don't think I can wait for the mail to come tomorrow. I think I'm just gonna have to spend the day making a costume. I need help. Tell me if you have better, quick and simple NO SEW ideas than these.
For ears: attach brown felt ears to a headband.
For horns: put her hair up in ponytails on top of her head and wrap them in brown yarn
For body: get white/off white/tan pants or leggings and shirt and put brown spots on them with sponges and fabric paint
For tail: this is where I get stuck. I have no idea how to do this. some kind of cloth tube or something with a brown yarn tassel attached, pinned to the pants? Any suggestions for how to make this? Quickly, easily, and very little sewing?
I'm so mad that the stuff didn't come yesterday. I thought I ordered it in time. All I would have had to do is the spots on the yellow clothes. I couldn't find yellow pants in a store ANYWHERE. So I'm thinking a tan or creme or white will have to do. I know I can find white leggings several places. Any other ideas? Anything simpler? I know I have some crafty people on my list. Help me out, oh crafters!
ETA: What about a thick piece of rope for the tail with a brown yarn tassel at the end? Think that would work?
