With the onset of winter in front of parents is usually acute two questions: how to dress a favorite child, so it does not freeze, and where to get a suit for him on New Year's matinee. And if you do not usually have problems with the costume of a bunny-squirrel-snowflake, then the costume of Koshchei immortal is not so easy to find. But there are no desperate situations. And that's why it's about how to make Koshchei's costume immortal with our own hands and will be discussed in our article.
Master class on costume creation Koshchei immortal
- First of all, let's define what will be our Koshchei costume. The usual equipment includes trousers and a T-shirt with a skeleton pattern on it, a crown, leggings, boots and a raincoat. But the most important part of the Koschey's costume is, of course, a black base suit with a skeleton drawing on it.
- Let's start work with making a "skeleton". To do this, we take pajamas or knitted suit of black color, foil of silver color (you can take the usual food), scissors and glue. If there is no ready-made suit, then you can sew panties and a T-shirt from any black fabric, or paint any suit in black.
- Depending on the size of the child, we will draw on the newspaper a stencil of bones for the costume of Koshchei. Let's try on a baby, and if everything is right, we'll cut out bones from foil. As an option, it is possible to use for bones not foil, but paint tape, white fabric, self-adhesive paper or even Christmas tree.
- Attach the bones to the trousers and T-shirt using glue or thread. From the piece of black fabric we make a cloak and we sew it with Christmas tree.
- The main part of the Koschey's suit is ready!
- Another way to draw a picture of a skeleton on a suit is to paint it with special paints. It is done this way: on thermal paper we will draw a stencil of bones for the costume of Koshchei.
- Cut out the bones, leaving the paper untouched around. It must be done very carefully, because the appearance of the entire costume depends on it. It is best to use for cutting a sharp clerical knife.
- Apply the resulting stencil to the base fabric and make the last corrections.
- We smooth our stencil to the fabric with a warm iron so that the stencil does not move during the painting work and the pattern is not deformed.
- We apply paint to the suit with a brush. Alternatively, you can use the paint in a can or use a conventional toothpaste for painting. Use toothpaste is for those who want after the holiday to use a suit for everyday wear. To remove toothpaste from the fabric, the suit will be sufficient to wash by hand or in a washing machine.
- After completely drying out the paint or paste, carefully remove the stencil from the fabric, taking care not to damage the pattern.
- Draw small flaws, make the outline more clear. If there is a desire - you can draw details, decorate the bones with sequins or rhinestones. A costume painted with luminous colors in the dark will also be effective. In general, there are no limits for the manifestation of creative abilities.
- The basis of the costume Koshchei immortal is ready.
- To complete the image, the costume of Koshchei needs a crown. It can be made from cardboard and foil. To do this, we cut the base of cardboard around the head of the child and glue it with food foil. The result is a royal crown.
- Leggings and bootlegs can be made from taffeta or any other shiny fabric. You can also supplement the costume with an egg, in which, according to the tales, Koscheev's death is kept. Egg cut out of foam and paint with silver paint.
With your hands you can make and costumes of other heroes, for example, a king or a pirate .
