Toy Story Alien Costumes

It was recently my last day at school where everyone in the year dresses up.  I went as the aliens from Toy Story with eleven other people (only eight of us in the photograph below) and created all of the costumes for the group.


In order to make the hats, I stitched felt shapes onto the green beanies we had ordered, before glue gunning half polystyrene balls onto the front and drawing pupils onto them.  Lastly I stuck a pipe cleaner through the top for the antenna.

For the rest of the outfit I ordered green gloves and blue dresses and leggings.  I then make a belt with a tie back out of blue fabric and stitched a felt buckle onto the front.  I also made purple felt collars which I stitched to the necklines.  I also printed out the alien's logo, laminated them and added a safety pin to the back so we each had badges!


Here is a closer view of one of the outfits.


The outfits were such a success and we all had a great day!

      Ive checked and the gloves I bought aren't available on Amazon anymore but any bright green gloves would do.

      All the felt I used:

      Green

      For the badges:
      I printed out a photo of the logo they have on their tops, laminated them and stuck a safety pin in the back of each so we all had a badge.


      I hope this is all helpful, good luck!
