Two Cute!
Adorable Costumes to Make for Your Twins By Kymberly Pratt
1. You will need a white sailor or other type hat. If you can't find one, you can make one out of white poster board and a piece of string.
2. Use the red yarn to make the hair. You can either attach it to the inside of the hat, or cut several pieces and tie them together and wear underneath the hat.
3. Your child needs a red-and-white striped or checked shirt. If you don't have one, take an old white T-shirt and stripe it with red paint.
4. For the pants, have your child wear blue jeans.
5. The final touch is a black tie, or strip of black fabric or felt to represent one.
6. Use blush and black eyeliner to decorate your child's face with rosy cheeks and freckles!
Little Bo Peep and Her Sheep
Will Little Bo Peep lose her sheep?
You'll need:
White jogging suit
White pompoms
Girl's dress
Dowel rod
White paint
Lace
Hot glue
Here's what you do:
1. To make the sheep, simply glue white pompoms to the white jogging suit. Give your child some rosy cheeks with blush.
2. For Little Bo Peep, dress your child in a frilly dress. You could even spruce up an old one by hot gluing some fabric underneath to make the dress "poof."
3. For the rod and staff, paint a dowel rod white and add some pink polka dots and lace.
