A wonderful fairy tale about Peter Pan J. Matthew Barry and her mischievous heroes are equally liked by both boys and girls. Therefore, your daughter will probably be delighted with the proposal to put on a Tin-Ding fairy costume for the New Year's party. It is quite simple to make it with your own hands, especially if you have a great desire to please your child.
What is required for this
To sew the costume of the Ding Ding Fairy , in addition to the sewing machine, you need to have on hand:
- a closed children's swimsuit or any T-shirt and panties of a daughter that fit her (will be used instead of a pattern);
- paper and pencil;
- crayon;
- scissors;
- a sufficient number of different pins, including English.
Also needed:
- well-stretched fabric, best stretch velvet of any shade of green;
- threads in tone;
- decorative elastic (white possible);
- a rigid grid of white or pale green for sewing a fluffy skirt;
- ordinary wide elastic.
If you do not want to buy ready-made “wings” of butterflies, which are sold in toy stores, then for their manufacture you need to acquire:
- sufficiently rigid, but easily bent wire;
- cardboard;
- white nylon stockings or golfs;
- glue.
Costume do-it-yourself fairy fairies: master class (option 1)
Sewing the outfit of the little cheerful fairy-girlfriend Peter Pan is done in the following order:
- A children's swimsuit (or panties and a T-shirt) is folded in half and laid on a large sheet of paper. Outline and get a pattern for the back and front.
- Both parts are cut out of the main fabric, taking into account the allowances for the seams (approximately 1.5 cm).
- They are connected with pins (can be swept away) and sewn into the groin and sides.
- Handle holes for the legs. This is best done by simply bending the edges inward and stitching with a zigzag machine seam.
- In the same way, the armhole and upper section are treated, which should be straight for both the front and the back.
- An oval (a slightly flattened circle) 40 cm long is cut out for the wing sleeves. 5 cm are cut from each edge. The part is divided in half. Bend from a cut of 1 cm and sew on a typewriter. An elastic band about 15 cm long is inserted into the resulting drawstring and the sleeve is seized. A semicircular edge is treated with an overlock or zigzag.
- Attach the sleeves to the base with pins and sew.
New Year's Fairy Tinker Bell costume: sew a skirt
This important element of the outfit is made as follows:
- measure the waist circumference, multiply by 2 and cut out a strip of fabric of such width and desired length;
- cut out triangles from this strip without violating its integrity;
- sew a single side seam;
- collect the skirt in uniform folds;
- fix them by hemming an elastic band (preferably decorative) to the upper edge of the skirt.
Wings
When the skirt and the swimsuit base are ready, it remains to make this main part, which will turn just a beautiful outfit into a fabulous New Year's costume of the Tinker Bell Fairy.
To make wings, like a butterfly, you need:
- take two pieces of wire;
- bend the base from them (separately for each wing);
- pull on a white golfiki or stocking;
- fasten the capron with several stitches or by wrapping it with a thread and tying a knot;
- cut off excess;
- fasten the wings with pieces of cardboard and glue so that a jumper is formed between them;
- stick a pair of rubber bands for her hands;
- to cover with flaps of the main fabric.
Accessories
The costume of the Ding Ding Fairy will become even more beautiful if complemented with a fluffy lower skirt. It can be sewn very easily. To do this, you just need to pick up a rigid mesh fabric (the length is the same or slightly longer than the main skirt).
As for shoes, any green shoes that need to be decorated with fluffy pompoms are suitable. They can also be made independently. It is enough to take a bright green yarn, cut a “bagel” from cardboard with a small hole inside and wrap tightly in a circle. Then the edges of the outer circle are cut off, and in the center, the pieces of yarn are collected in a tight knot. By the way, pompons can be completely replaced with green feathers, if they are quite lush.
At the last stage of the work, you can connect to the creation of a carnival outfit for your daughter and dad, who will surely do fine with making a magic wand with ribbons.
Option 2
When choosing a carnival outfit for a daughter for the New Year's party, pay attention to the costume of the Tinker Bell Fairy, the photo of which is presented below. Sewing it is not particularly difficult, especially if you have a green tank top with a large neckline at the front. In this case, you do not have to spend a lot of time sewing a swimsuit-base. So let's get started.
We sew the top
To do this, cut out from green fabric (for example, satin) small leaves, truncated where the stalk was supposed to be. Sew together in two and turn out, iron. The neckline of the t-shirts in front is draped in pleats. Sew the leaves over the folds, tucking their blunt ends.
If the shirt is too spacious, you can make new side seams, stepping back from the old ones to the side from the center on both sides, the desired number of centimeters.
Skirt
Like the previous Ding Ding fairy costume, this outfit is also multi-layered. You will need to first sew the petticoat from the net, and then cut 12 leaves truncated from the cuttings from the fabric. The width of each such part in the upper part is calculated as follows:
- measure the waist circumference of the child;
- add 20 cm;
- divided by three.
All parts are sewn in two and turned upside down. Connect and fix the ends of every three, getting two skirts from leaflets. Put them on top of each other so that all the leaves are visible. Sew together on top. Make a drawstring and put on an elastic band. From below put on a magnificent petticoat from a white grid. If there is a desire, complement the outfit with a belt and wings, which are made as described above.
Now you know how to make a beautiful Ding Ding fairy costume for a girl with your own hands. Regardless of which option you choose, your daughter will look in him like a real little sorceress.
Of course, you will have to spend time and effort on its manufacture, but the baby will forever remember how you together cut the petals from the fabric or made fabulous wings.
