shows how to do three different looks
today starting with the first one what's
this one the first one is kind of our
scooby-doo theme so we have Velma and
Fred and cool Velma has the red skirt
right so you want to do and you know I'm
the know so girl so I always use hot
glue for everything right and you can
use regular glue if you want like a
tacky glue or I like hot glue because it
sticks really good okay so here you've
just taken a large square of this red
felt yep and what you want to do is make
a hem and again you don't have to sew it
so you put a long line of the hot glue
and kind of fold it over like this okay
and then you'll put your ribbon through
now of course this is kind of skinny so
we don't want to show but I'm gonna show
you how we're gonna turn this into
Superman - oh so you'd put a ribbon
through so then you could tie it over so
here's our Velma and then you could do
glasses everybody has these cheap
glasses right
you just pop out the little lens in here
and paint them black with some Americana
acrylic paint and we have the finished
product this is row as one of our former
interns
welcome back Rose you look great and do
a little spin for us so we can see oh
absolutely I can't show the back oh
nevermind
okay sorry I suggested you look great
just don't turn around don't turn around
yes and there she's got what a sheet
just has like two dollars right now I
think or something like that so there
really and if you could do that costume
for about five ten bucks super cheap and
you know those black glasses I know you
said you could get any color and just
paint them black but if you have a pair
of black glasses just pop out the lenses
right exactly
Rose Velma you look great thanks so much
for coming back I'll let you slowly back
out in Stuart okay so next you were
saying you could do a Superman costume
using the same technique yes I used my
glasses to do the little form here like
your template and then you're just gonna
put it on your felt and then cut it out
and you have this oh I see that becomes
the mask
yes and so and then for the hair I did
this little piece here see look I love
it
and then for the Cape same technique as
I did before with the hem with the hot
glue put some ribbon just a square of
red felt yes and you could use like the
paint markers from deco art to do the S
on there if you want oh yeah you could
do superwoman or however you want to do
so here's your cape and once you made
that hem by the way you just ran this
ribbon is like two bucks seriously two
bucks and if you had a blue dress shirt
you could just you know like open the
shirt yes and there you go there's
Superman okay
and then our next one is the gumball
machine now this one's probably about a
10 15 dollar costume depending on how
much you use and what you get okay you
can find felt online for like $5 per
houbolt
so it's compared to what the craft
stores charge really good deal I don't
remember the website but just Google
like is that tool I mean cool sorry cool
okay so the tool is kind of like the
fluffier see-through crinkly stuff yes
do the skirt it's really simple to
you're just gonna cut strips off of the
bolt of tulle and then you just take a
piece of ribbon and you kind of so it's
doubled in half here like this okay I
can get it pulled apart here and then
you just loop it through oh I see like
so and you just need about 100 or 200 of
these okay so the whole idea is you you
repeat this pattern over and over and
over tie the tool to the ribbon bat and
then eventually that makes noise while
watching a game yesterday so maybe two
hours to do one skirt okay wasn't bad a
long time but you're watching the game
and you're doing this right okay you
shirt I just took a bowl here and put it
on there to get my pattern and just you
can use the same paint marker here just
kind of pattern your thing out there to
do your whole circle and these are just
regular pom-poms I think they're like a
buck ninety-nine at the craft store and
you're gonna hot glue them all around
that whole circle oh okay so you're just
gonna stick these on in a circular
pattern okay well and to see the
finished product we have another one of
our former interns Lauren
coming out to the studio Oh Lauren you
look great is this like my favorite
costume cuz it's fun and then you can
get a little piece of cardstock to do
the 25 cents and so her cut you know her
little bubble gums are 25 cents that is
the cutest gumball machine I have ever
seen
so that's the skirt you were saying took
about two hours you were just tying
strip by strip of tulle around just a
little bit and these are great because
you can make these skirts to go you can
make a pumpkin little costume you could
do like a you know card like a heart
card then Queen of Hearts cost you know
you could do you could also do like a
sugarplum fairy or the holiday Wizard of
Oz last year and little the fairies were
all what is that good which one for that
and then Dorothy had the blue ones
what a cute idea inexpensive simple easy
inexpensive just grab yourself a glue
gun maybe some felt maybe some tulle and
those little pom-poms and you're good to
go
