It is decorated with toys and tinsel, round dances are performed around it, and at midnight Santa Claus himself lights its lights. Christmas tree- one of the main symbols of the magical holiday.
If you want your child to be the center of attention at the matinee, invite him to dress up in a Christmas tree costume - a forest beauty. This look is suitable for both very young and older children.
Making a costume with your own hands
Making an outfit for the main character of the holiday will not be difficult even for those who have never dealt with a sewing machine. There are several ways to turn ordinary things into new Year costume.
The easiest of them is to find clothes in the children's wardrobe, suitable color, style and redo it a little. It will take a maximum of two hours to make such an outfit. There are several options for alterations that do not require much time.
A green dress
Turning even the most austere, boring thing into a carnival outfit is a simple matter. If the dress is straight or slightly flared, even better. For a magical transformation, it is enough to decorate it with garlands of sparkling beads, tinsel, bows, small New Year's toys, snowflakes, bells. Mark in advance with chalk where the decorations will be located, and then sew them to the dress.
White T-shirt combined with a green skirt
We deal with these wardrobe details in approximately the same way as described above. You can do it on a T-shirt volume applique in the form of a Christmas tree made of felt, tulle. Trim the skirt with rain, tone-on-tone tinsel, or contrasting colors: white, gold, silver. This outfit can be complemented with elegant knee socks or red tights. This combination is traditionally considered New Year's.
Satin ribbons
They will need to be gathered and sewn onto the base, circle by circle, leaving a minimum distance between the rows. It is better to take wide ribbons, you will need a lot of them, and the costume will turn out lush. You can sew tinsel between the ribbons.
Christmas tree costume for a boy
Who said that the Christmas tree costume is only for girls? If you make the image of an evergreen tree more brutal, this outfit will suit a boy. Male version The spruce suit should consist of overalls with a cap, or a T-shirt with green trousers.
For those who know how to sew
You can create an original Christmas tree costume if you put in a little more effort and sew it from green satin fabric. The entire suit, or part of it, for example, a bodice, can be made from this material. The skirt can be made from organza or tulle. In order to make a satin suit with a semi-sun skirt, you will need:
- satin fabric, depending on the age of the child from 1 to 2 meters;
- threads, needle;
- pattern paper;
- a measuring tape to take measurements from the child;
- sewing machine;
- linen elastic;
- tinsel, rain, organza or tulle to decorate the costume.
Let's look at the process of making a suit step by step.
Step 1. First of all, we take measurements from the child. It is better if the length of the skirt or dress is knee-length. In too long suit It will be uncomfortable for the baby to take part in outdoor games at the holiday, and the short skirt will constantly ride up.
Step 2. By taken measurements make a paper pattern in full size. Attach the pieces to the wrong side of the fabric, folded in half, and trace with a special pencil, chalk or a thin piece of soap. Don't forget to allow seam allowances of approximately 1-2 cm.
Step 3. Cut out the parts, fold them inward with the edges, and sew them on a machine. Sections can be processed with an overlocker. This will make the suit look neater.
Step 4. For a full satin skirt, cut out the circle according to the pattern. Finish the outer edge of the circle by folding it over. Make a drawstring around the inner circle. To do this, fold the fabric, about half a centimeter, stitch, leaving a small hole at the end. Insert the elastic, sew the edge to the end. For a Christmas tree costume, you can make a cape over the shoulders.
Another option for a full skirt is a “tutu” skirt made of tulle. It is made on the basis of an elastic band, along the entire length of which pre-cut strips of fabric are tied. To work you will need:
- green tulle, which will need to be cut into strips 20 cm wide; the length of the strips depends on the height of the child;
- wide elastic band, the length should be 3 cm longer than the model’s waist circumference;
- scissors;
- wide satin ribbon for belt;
Sew the elastic into a ring, or tie the ends in a knot. Pull it over the back of the chair to make it easier to tie the fabric.
Cut the tulle into strips of the required length and width. For very tiny ones, the strip size is 15x50 cm. Quantity: 40-60 pieces.
Find the middle of the strip, tie it to the elastic with a double knot or a loop knot, so that it does not tighten the elastic, but does not dangle on it.
Tie all the strips, pushing them tightly towards each other. Their ends can be trimmed or left different lengths so that they look more like spruce branches.
Attach a satin ribbon to the belt. Straighten your skirt. The outfit for the matinee is ready.
New Year's herringbone dress made of tulle
From mesh fabric, using a similar principle of knots, you can make not only a skirt, but also a dress. An option for those who do not know how to sew or do not have them on hand sewing machine. For a tulle Christmas tree dress you will need:
- 6-7 meters of fabric, 1.5 meters wide;
- 9 meters of satin ribbon;
- 1 meter of wide elastic band;
- ruler;
- tape measure;
- needle with thread;
- scissors;
Cut the tulle into strips. Their length is calculated by the formula: the length from the armpits to the knees multiplied by two, plus 3-4 cm for the knot. The length of the elastic is determined as follows: 5-7 cm is subtracted from the chest circumference.
Sew the ends of the elastic together, stretch it using a chair to make it more comfortable. Ribbons are tied in the same way as when creating a tutu skirt. At the end, pass a satin ribbon between the knots. Make straps from a wide ribbon and sew them to the bodice of the dress.
The style of the outfit will be trapezoidal. If you need a fitted dress, then make a belt from a satin ribbon and sew or simply tie it over the dress.
An interesting option will turn out if you use a top elastic band for the top of the dress. This is a well-stretchy perforated fabric that needlewomen often use to make decorative headbands for babies. In this case, strips of tulle are tied directly to the fabric of the top, threading them through the holes.
Crown for a forest beauty
A headdress is a mandatory attribute of a Christmas tree carnival costume, because even the top of a real Christmas tree at the holiday is decorated with a spire or star. The simplest version of a headdress is a paper cap. You can buy it at a holiday supply store, or you can make it yourself. To do this, draw a circle on cardboard with a diameter of 25 cm, cut it out by making a cut on the side, roll it up into a cone shape. You need to glue tinsel around it, and put a red star on the top of your head.
Another a win-win: crown on the rim. The headband is wrapped with a green satin ribbon, and a crown and a green mini-hat are glued to it.
For a Christmas tree headdress, a beautiful kokoshnik is suitable, which can be cut out of thick cardboard and sheathed or covered with green fabric. Real craftswomen can crochet a headdress. If you starch it, the crown or kokoshnik will keep its shape well.
Ideas for inspiration
Options for Christmas tree costumes may vary. Here are some ideas for inspiration on how to sew and decorate an outfit for a matinee.
Tulle dress with a wide red satin ribbon belt. As decorations - shiny Christmas balls small size. The headdress is a cap on a rim, decorated with a gold star.
Felt Christmas tree. Warm and cozy suit for baby. The basis for the pattern can be any trapezoidal baby dress of a suitable size. Decorations – pompoms different sizes, gold braid. Soft felt does not prick or rub. This option is suitable for the little ones.
Lush dress made of elastic top and tulle skirt. The highlight of the outfit is satin bows bright red color decorating the straps of the bodice.
A multi-tiered dress looks impressive. Complete with a magic hat, it creates a complete image of a forest beauty.
The most popular costume options
The New Year's carnival is replete with bright masks, fluffy dresses, and superhero outfits. In first place among the top three popular girls’ looks is the “Princess” costume. To create princess clothes, any fluffy dress the desired color, generously decorated with beads, rhinestones and other attributes of royal luxury. A charming head with a lush curly hairstyle is sure to be crowned with a diadem or crown.
The second most popular costume, familiar to parents from Soviet childhood, is “Snowflake”. A snow-white fluffy skirt that looks like a tutu. In many kindergartens and schools they come up with a special dance for this image.
The “Herringbone” suit is in the top three. Decorated with garlands, toys, tinsel, it looks quite advantageous among carnival outfits, ahead of bunnies, foxes and other forest animals.
A wide selection of carnival costumes in stores allows you to dress up your child as any fairy-tale character.
However, nothing compares to a suit sewn by mother’s caring hands. When creating an outfit, you can be sure that there will be no other one like it at the matinee.
As it turns out, you don’t have to have professional sewing skills to please your child with a unique New Year’s outfit. All it takes is a little patience, perseverance and desire. Everything will definitely work out thanks to step-by-step instructions.

- Fold the edges of the parts inward and grind the seams using a sewing machine. Finish the cuts with an overlocker.
- Baste the back seam and press it to the sides.
Draw the entire shuttlecock on paper, using the fourth part of the shuttlecock drawn in advance. - Attach the paper pattern to the material (in one layer) and draw the outline of the dress flounce on the material. Prepare a couple more shuttlecocks in the same way.

As a rule, tutu skirts do not need to be sewn and patterns are not needed for them. To make such a skirt, you will need to take:
- Green tulle. For such a skirt, American nylon is considered ideal. It is very soft, suitable even for the little ones, and holds its shape perfectly.
- Mostly, rolls with a width of about 20 cm are available for sale. This is convenient, because you will not need to cut the material. If you cannot find such fabric, then buy the most ordinary tulle or mesh.
- Wide elastic band. Take the length of the elastic so that you still have about 3 cm left.
- A satin ribbon for making a bow and a belt.
- Scissors.

All. We have prepared the necessary elements, now we begin to create:

- You can use tulle of various shades. It all depends on your desire and imagination.
- Sew the elastic into a circle, or tie it in a knot. Stretch the elastic so that it is convenient for you to tie tulle ribbons on it, for example, on the back of a chair.
- Take the strips of tulle by the middle and tie it to an elastic band using double knot. If you want the skirt to be fuller, tie a loop knot. Make sure that the knot does not overtighten the elastic, but does not dangle either.
- Tie the knots together tightly enough so that the elastic is not visible. Do this all around the circle.
- If necessary, you can trim the skirt: squeeze the ends of the material tightly in your hand and cut off the uneven ends.
- Decorate the waistband of the skirt with a green satin ribbon. You can also decorate the skirt with bows or tinsel.
- Straighten your skirt.
- The main element of the Christmas tree costume is ready. To complete it, you will need to take a white or green T-shirt and decorate it as you wish. Then sew the skirt to the T-shirt.

There are many options for making a Christmas tree, and we will look at the most spectacular and simple ones.
How to sew a Christmas tree outfit for your daughter for the New Year 2019
Options and ideas for Christmas tree costumes for the New Year 2019, a wide variety of ideas on what to make a costume from.
Using a ready-made dress and tinsel
This is the easiest and fastest option. To make it, we will need any dress or sundress available at home, and the color does not have to be green.
We sew fluffy tinsel liberally onto the dress, placing it horizontally. It can be green, white or blue tinsel.
Large and small beads, small Christmas tree decorations, and rhinestones are perfect.
Finished dress and fabric scraps
Another option is to make a suit from an existing item of any shade and sew green patches on top. Necessary a large number of segments from light fabric measuring 15-20 centimeters.
You can take different shades, for example blue and green, or green and light green. The flaps are cut into diamond shapes and sewn vertically, overlapping each other.
If there are several colors, then they should be alternated in a checkerboard pattern. When all the elements are sewn, you can start decorating the dress.
For this purpose, a gold-colored satin ribbon, small plastic Christmas decorations, beads.
It all depends on the idea in mind. By the way, another way to decorate a costume is to cut the edges of each diamond into narrow strips.
The result will be something like Christmas tree needles.
DIY tulle dress
If there is no ready-made outfit in stock or the existing one is not quite suitable for realizing the intended image, it is not difficult to make what you need yourself.
You need to purchase six meters of tulle, a wide elastic band, satin ribbons wide and narrow, accessories for decoration.
First you need to make a pattern. Depending on the size of the girl, we cut the material into 50 or 60 ribbons, the width of which is 15 centimeters.
To measure the length of the segments, measure the distance from the armpits to the knees and multiply it by two. Add three centimeters to the resulting value.
Now we measure these dimensions on the material and cut them. The next step is sewing the elastic. To calculate its size, measure the chest circumference and subtract five centimeters.
We get the required length of the elastic band. Then we sew the elastic band and put it on the chair, for the convenience of further actions.
We take the previously prepared ribbons, fold them in half and thread them under the elastic band. We pull the ends of the tape into the formed loop. Carefully tighten the knot.
Thus, we use all the prepared pieces of fabric. We thread a wide satin ribbon into knots of stripes.
We make straps for the dress; for more comfortable wearing, you can make them with ties at the neck or arrange them crosswise.
If you want to make the outfit fitted, you can invent a thin belt made of satin ribbon. Well, then the costume is decorated with bright details to suit your taste.
A suit of a fluffy skirt and a ready-made T-shirt
If your daughter has a beautiful T-shirt in green, blue or white, all that remains is to add a tutu skirt and decorate the suit.
To sew such a skirt, exactly the same method is used as for sewing a tulle dress. Only the length of the tapes is calculated differently.
It will be equal to the distance from the baby’s waist to the knee. All other points remain the same.
When the skirt is ready, we sew it to the T-shirt, and decorate the sparkle with beads, rain or tinsel.
Shimmering outfit using garland
If you want to surprise those present and be the center of attention, you should make a costume with bright flashing lights.
An ordinary garland, powered by batteries, will help with this.
First of all, let's cut the dress into a trapezoid shape. For such a costume, you need to take a dense fabric so that it holds its shape well after decorating with a garland. Then we will construct the lining.
We cut out the parts and sew them together. We put garlands of light bulbs on a thin wire, sew them to the suit and leave them on the outside, and hide the wires in the inside - the lining.
If desired, you can add additional decorations in the form of golden ribbons or tinsel, but in this case there is no need for excess.
In addition to the suit itself, an excellent addition to New Year's look will be a headdress corresponding to the theme. Let's look at ways to sew hats for little Christmas trees.
Headdress for the Christmas tree look
Tinsel cap
Take a sheet of whatman paper and form a cone-shaped figure from it. The diameter should be such that the cone fits easily on the child’s head.
After trying on, we glue the required piece of whatman paper together, and wrap it very tightly, without gaps, with green fluffy tinsel, gluing it carefully.
We decorate such a cap with toys, beads, ribbons or snowflakes.
Headband decoration
To make it, we purchase a ready-made hairband. You will also need a green piece of fabric, which must be cut into long narrow strips.
A headband with springs would also be a good option. We cover it with fabric, just as in the first case, and attach sewn decorations to the springs. For example, made snowflakes or Christmas trees look quite nice on springs.
Finished hat with decoration
For this option, you will need any house hat, which should be covered generously with green or golden rain.
Beach hat with decor
If we take the usual summer hat, wrap it in tinsel, and stick toys or beads for the Christmas tree on the sparkle, you get a chic headdress that perfectly complements the image of the Christmas tree.
Cape for an outfit - a luxurious accessory
Of course, it is not at all necessary to make a cape for the costume. However, if you do make it, it will turn out very elegant and stylish.
It is very easy to make - you need to take a piece of satin measuring 145 centimeters in length and exactly the same in width.
We cut out a circle from the prepared piece, having previously folded the fabric in half for convenience.
In the center of the resulting circle, cut out a hole through which the child will put on the product.
Cut the cape at the front and sew it on big button and a loop. We decorate as desired.
Don't forget to decorate your shoes
No matter how beautiful the outfit is, the wrong shoes can ruin everything. Therefore, you should also pay attention to clothing for your legs.
The first way is to take ordinary slippers or Czech shoes and cover them with satin material in the color of the dress, cape or headdress. You can decorate with feathers, beads, snowflakes.
The second option is to sew snow-white shoe covers from dense fabric. To do this, you need to make a pattern according to the size of the child’s foot, transfer it to fabric and sew it with matching threads.
To prevent the shoe covers from slipping on the leg, causing discomfort, it is necessary to sew an elastic band around the edges. Decorate the finished shoes with tinsel, fur or beads.
Subtleties of making a Christmas tree festive costume
To avoid unexpected difficulties when sewing, let's learn some tricks.
- If the suit turns out to be too bright and colorful, white will correct the situation. Using ordinary cotton wool, we apply horizontal patterns to the dress, placing the pattern between the main decor. Old beads or just a thick thread that is passed through Christmas tree decorations or beads on an outfit also look good.
- To ensure that the dress keeps its shape from below, we carefully sew small loops on the inside using a thick thread. We pass a wire pre-wrapped with fabric or tape through the loops so that the child does not accidentally get hurt by sharp edges.
- If you don’t have time to make shoes, you can use regular light-colored socks worn over white tights. In this case, decorate the tights with gold or green rhinestones.
- To brighten the image on the baby’s face, we will draw patterns in the form of snowflakes or New Year's balls on the cheeks. You can do this using your mother's cosmetics.
As it turned out, there is nothing complicated in designing a costume. If you start making it in advance, without the New Year's rush and after thinking through the details, at the matinee the baby will surprise those present with her beautiful stylish outfit.

Several video instructions.

And more.
And on this site you will find instructions on how to make a simple costume.
For this you will need at least green material, paper and candy wrappers.
The easiest way to sew a Herringbone suit- take this ready-made pattern or just by cut child dress and use it to sew a dress. We sew the dress from green fabric. It could be satin, crepe-satin, or maybe something knitted. You can choose demi-season fabric.
The pattern can also be taken from a magazine. For example, like this:
We transfer all the contours to the fabric, add allowances and cut out carefully. Now we take organza of the same green color (but you can take a tone darker or lighter), cut out the strips and fold them in half. We machine sew each strip along the top and gather it a little, moving the fabric along the thread. We sew these stripes to the dress in rows. If it’s difficult for you, then you can use a ruler to mark out the place for the stitching and use tailor’s needles. We sew on the stripes, process the armholes, neckline, bottom of the product and you can try it on. If it’s hard for you to work with organza, then you can simply singe each strip along the bottom over a candle. Just do it carefully so as not to spoil the fabric.
This is one of the options. As you can see, there is nothing complicated. But you will need patience, of course). And believe me, the outfit is worth it).
I think the child will really like this outfit.
You can sew a Christmas tree costume for the New Year different ways, it all depends on your sewing skills and creativity.
For beginners, we can offer the simplest option: sew straight dress, and sew flounces on top: we simply cut off wide strips of fabric and sew them to the dress, making gathering. A pattern for a dress can be made based on a ready-made dress or T-shirt. Or, for example, use this:
Here is an example of the dress you should end up with:
You can sew Christmas tree decorations onto the dress - just cut out multi-colored balls or other toys from fabric.
Another option, no less beautiful, could be a tutu skirt or a dress made according to this type. This option is suitable for those who do not have a sewing machine. From tulle we cut strips 20-30 cm wide and a length equal to the length of the skirt, multiplied by two. Then we tie these strips onto a wide elastic band along its entire length (we cut the elastic according to the measurement of the girl’s chest). More details on how to make such a tutu skirt are shown in the video:
Image Christmas tree We complement it with a headdress. It could be a green cap, trimmed with tulle and with a star at the very top, it could be a green veil, it could be a headband, or even just a headband trimmed with green fabric and decorated with a red star.
The simplest option is to glue a sundress and a cap from green corrugated paper, and decorate the suit with rain.
A more complicated option
Make a sundress pattern
and sew garlands
This is the most difficult option
To sew such a Christmas tree costume for a girl, you need to have 1.2 green satin and 70 centimeters of tulle (tulle should be 3 meters wide). Everything else is needed for decoration, for example, sequins, golden braid, you can use rain. Of course, we still need thread and glue.
We make patterns for the front, back and fourth part of the shuttlecock.
We sew the parts and process the seams
Now we cut out the shuttlecock
and 4 more details
Sew according to the pattern.
You can make a Christmas tree costume for a girl in at least two versions:
The simplest option is a trapezoidal Christmas tree costume. Be sure to choose green fabric. As a last resort, you can paint a piece of gauze with brilliant green). Let's find a dress or T-shirt in the girl's wardrobe, apply it to the fabric and trace it so that our dress diverges into a trapezoid towards the bottom.
We cut out such a blank and sew it along the shoulders and sides. The neck can be made any way - boat or V-shaped. You can leave the dress sleeveless by sewing on tinsel, and you can sew on sleeves from hypora or the same fabric.
The bottom of the dress can also be left unchanged and tinsel can be sewn onto it. Or you can make cloves. You can pass a thin wire - then the skirt will stand like a bell. And all that remains is to decorate the dress with rain and tinsel. It is better to put a crown on your head or build a decoration based on a hairband.
Getting Started with a Solution this issue, you should be guided by the following considerations: the outfit should please the child and not restrict his movements, production should not take much time and be as simple as possible even for those who do not know how to sew well, the material should be budget-friendly. Of course, if you then do not expect to pass it on to subsequent generations for many years (just kidding).
The general concept is as follows: a multi-tiered dress made of green material, preferably larger, decorated with small toys or appliqués reminiscent of them and tinsel. Headgear: a pointed cap or something similar.
All girls love to dress up as princesses or brides, so why not give them this opportunity, even if only in a dress suit.
A cape collar made of double-folded material with a loose elastic band. And the second part: a multi-tiered sundress with straps.
And in this outfit you only have to sew the skirt. By and large, it is made, not sewn.
There are many options for a Christmas tree costume:
You can take the costume as a basis regular dresses, skirts, blouses, T-shirts in white or green.
You can sew green tinsel onto white clothes.
Make the appropriate hairstyle on the girl’s head:
We begin the work by creating the branches of our spruce.
Another cute version of the Herringbone outfit.
A green dress is also taken as a basis, and an organza dress enlarged three times is sewn onto it. By gathering the dress into folds and tiers, we get a lush Christmas tree. Let's complement the outfit with bows, beads, and rhinestones.
You can make this simple sundress. We will need satin ribbons and green fabric, of course.
Take a pattern (in sizes for three years)
enlarge it if necessary, transfer it to the fabric, cut it out, sew all the necessary seams, and process the neckline.
Next, we take the ribbons and collect them on a thread so that it looks like a ruffle, then, starting from the bottom, we sew these frills, circle by circle, to the sundress. You can add ribbons of other colors to make it look like a Christmas tree decoration, or then decorate the dress with rain or tinsel. You can put a regular headband wrapped in tinsel on your head and attach a star to it.
For a little girl 3 - 5 years old, a Christmas tree costume made on the basis of a dress is suitable. Cut-out dress along the bodice line with short sleeve and the bottom of the dress is made of two large flounces. There is a cape on the shoulders, which is sewn almost the same way as flounces for a skirt. Trim with tinsel or fur. You can put a red crown on your head.
For pomp and originality, you can sew a cape and flounces from tulle like a tutu. How to sew a tutu, look at the video below, and the Christmas tree costume will turn out like this
