Loved cartoon characters became real friends for children. Therefore, many at carnival evenings want to dress in a fixed costume. But how to make it? There is already a need for rich imagination. If fixatives really existed, then, of course, they would suggest how to do this. And since they are not there, you will have to be content with advice from books, the Internet, or your own inventions.
Preparation before starting to make a fixative suit
Depending on what kind of fixation the child wants to be dressed in, material of the necessary color is taken. For example, Simka - fixik orange, Zero - blue, dad - green, mom - pink, grandfather - brown, Simka's classmates - red, purple, yellow, green fixiki. The color of the hairstyles matches the color of the clothes.
Necessarily the presence of the necessary materials: the fabric of the right color, scissors, needles, threads, a centimeter tape, foam rubber, glue and others (as necessary).
The process of creating a Nolik costume
Top of clothes: you can buy a blue turtleneck in the store, or you can sew it yourself. For this, a blue fabric is taken. Fleece is great. Patterns of sleeves, front and back are made. The most important thing is to correctly calculate the dimensions. First, the front and back parts are stitched together. Next, the sleeves and the collar are sewn. Be sure to leave one centimeter at the seams. Otherwise, the size will come out smaller than necessary. One part of the costume is ready.
The lower part: patterns of trousers are made from the same material, which are sewn together. For ease of donning, a wide elastic band fits into the belt.
The bulk of the work is done. Now you need to make a voluminous wig on your head. It is made of foam rubber. First, several blocks of rectangular shape are cut. They overlap each other with the help of glue "Moment" on the prepared base of the cap. The finished wig hat can be dyed in the desired blue color. It is important to correctly calculate the diameter of the base of the wig, otherwise it may be larger or smaller than the desired size.
Instead of foam, you can use cardboard paper or other materials. For example, for Simka’s wig, you can use tow ropes.
The fixative suit is almost ready. It remains to choose the right shoes (blue sneakers) and additional accessories.
Essential accessories for full compliance
Without which fix is not fix? Of course, without a help. This is a mandatory attribute in order for the fixative costume to be fully complemented.
Helper is a small backpack in which all the fixative tools are located. The button for the help can be made of synthetic winterizer. Then it will turn out more voluminous and realistic. It can be sewn to the costume itself or attached to the straps.
Helper straps and a belt for a suit can be made of patent blue faux leather. The same skin can be sewn to trousers. The varnished material will allow the costume to look elegant and original.
The fixative suit must be supplemented with special semi-gloves - blue mittens. On this, the creation of the Nolik costume is over.
