But they always need help parents, including in number and in preparation suits. Last year our pupils acted as Christmas trees and how I sewed for them costumes I'll tell you now.

First we'll make the hat. We need a glue stick, a paper cone blank (you can use ready-made caps that are sold in birthday kits), double-sided tape and tinsel.

We connect the straight sides of the cone and stick double-sided tape on it, then remove the protective film and wrap tinsel in a circle.

Now let's make a pompom.

Having connected 2 circle blanks, we wind red threads on them

Along the outside of the circle, cut the threads with scissors, separate the circles, and pull the threads into a pompom.

Attach the pompom to the cone. The hat is ready. To keep it on the child’s head, you need to make 2 small holes at the base of the cone and tie a hat elastic.

Now I’ll tell you how the skirts were sewn. To make them I bought gabardine fabric, satin crepe (for belt) and bias tape. First, I cut out the skirts and sewed bias tape to the bottom.

Then I cut strips for the belts.

I stitched it to the top of the skirt and inserted an elastic band.

This is how the skirt turned out.

For upper and lower tier Christmas trees I sewed the same skirts.

Trying on) And the mothers helped us trim our skirts with tinsel)

These are so beautiful Christmas trees performed at the New Year's party!

We offer you several tailoring options beautiful outfit DIY Christmas trees.

How to sew an outfit if you have a base - a dress

The easiest way to make a costume is to make an outfit based on beautiful dress in the shape of a trapezoid, preferably green. It is enough to decorate it with bright elements: beads, rain, tulle, circles and foil stars. To attach the decor, it is recommended to use a needle and thread or glue, so that during dancing and games all the beauty does not end up on the floor. You cannot attach the decor to the dress with pins, as they are unsafe and can injure the child.

Christmas tree outfit: top and tutu skirt made of organza or tulle

You can create a bright and solemn image of a New Year tree by using a fluffy green tutu skirt in your suit. The top of the suit can be a white or red T-shirt or blouse. You don't need a sewing machine to sew an airy skirt. We cut tulle or organza into strips of 20-30 cm, the length of the strips depends on how long the skirt you want, multiplied by two. We tie the strips to a wide elastic band, trying not to overtighten them, tightly to each other. The more stripes, the more magnificent the skirt will be. Sew a satin ribbon onto the elastic band.

Christmas tree costume made of satin ribbons or tiers of organza

The task of creating a Christmas tree costume is multi-tiered. Helps achieve this effect a large number of gathered ribbons that are sewn onto the trapezoidal dress. The tighter you sew the satin ribbons in a circle, the more magnificent the crown of the Christmas tree will be. Ribbons for a suit can be used in green, and can also be alternated with satin or organza in white, red, blue color. If satin is used to trim the dress, the ribbons must be folded in half and machine stitched so that the fabric looks neat. Organza sections are not processed. You need to sew the ribbons onto the base in a circle, maintaining an equal distance between the rows. The upper tier should cover the lower one by a third.

After creating a lush crown, you can start decorating the costume with tinsel, bright balls, a string of beads, orgnase or satin bows. The outfit will be complemented by a crown, hat or headband with decorative elements that were used to decorate the costume.

How to sew a dress from fabric

For those who know how to sew, good idea sewing a dress of a forest beauty from green fabric (satin) according to a simple pattern. Highlight unusual outfit– a luminous garland with LED bulbs embroidered on the dress in a zigzag pattern.

• Make a dress pattern; you can use a baby’s T-shirt as a template to measure the neckline and armhole.
• Transfer the pattern to the fabric, leaving a few centimeters for finishing the seams. Since the costume will use garlands attached to the wrong side, you need to sew two dresses.

• When starting to sew the second dress, you only need to sew the side seam. The upper part of the dress needs to be turned inside out and diagonal lines drawn at equal distances, starting from the shoulder seam.
• The places where the light bulbs will be located need to be marked, pierce the fabric with the base of the light bulb and bend the “antennae” and connect them with wire, securing with glue.

• Both dresses are sewn at the neckline and armhole. To the bottom of the dress, from the wrong side, you need to sew a wire rolled into a circle so that the bottom of the dress has the shape of a cone. You can decorate an original outfit with tinsel, beads, Christmas balls and other New Year's decor elements.

Accessories for a Christmas tree outfit

To make the look complete, you need to complement the suit with a beautiful headdress. This could be a headband with a Christmas tree made using the kanzashi technique, a cardboard crown decorated with sequins, a hat with organza decor, satin ribbons glasses, sparkle.
