Do-it-yourself New Year's costume: we make deer antlers. The cutest new year deer costume for kids and adults two person deer costume

Sew rompers on your own for a beginner seamstress - very difficult. Therefore, it is best to find a ready-made option. But overalls must meet certain parameters. He must be Brown. It is better if there are no prints and drawings on it. As for the fabric, something warm will do: plush, wool, fur. First, it will imitate a deer skin. Secondly, in large halls where matinees are held, it is often quite cool. And, most importantly, the overalls should have a hood that fits well to the head.

It remains only to attach the ears to the jumpsuit. For this fit 2 small white gloves. They need to be tightly stuffed with cotton wool and sewn to the hood. The costume is ready!

Attention! It is not so easy to take off such a suit if the baby wants to go to the toilet. Therefore, it is better to put a diaper on the baby in advance. Or warn the child to ask to use the toilet as soon as he wants. In extreme cases, you need to take a spare set of clothes with you.

Shorts and vest - outfit for a boy

Such suits can be sewn both for the image of a bunny, a bear, and for a deer. For the latter, you will need faux fur in light brown color. In extreme cases, corduroy or plush will do. The following tips will be useful to those who do not know how or do not like to cut for a long time.

Pattern and sewing vests:

  1. Take a children's T-shirt that you don't mind ruining.
  2. Break it down into individual parts. Put the sleeves aside. On the chest, cut a section in the middle, 3 cm wide.
  3. Attach fragments of a T-shirt to faux fur, circle them with chalk or a bar of soap, leaving a 1 cm allowance.
  4. Cut out the pieces and sew them together.

By the same principle, sew shorts, for this, open up old children's shorts or panties. At the back, you can sew on a small ponytail, also made of fur. So that the child does not freeze, you need to put on white tights and a turtleneck of the same color.

For horns, you need to take a children's wide hoop. Using a stiff wire, twist the deer horns. Wrap them with cotton wool and thin twine. So the horns will be light and very neat.

Advice! This costume can be adapted for a girl by replacing the shorts with a simple flared skirt. It can be cut from a single piece of fabric by measuring the child's waist circumference and the length of the future product.

Universal cape

This option is for those who do not have a sewing machine or time for cutting and sewing. To make a cape, you need to measure the circumference of the child's head and the length from the neck to the knee. Can be made a little shorter. A long cape will interfere with walking. A child can even fall in it and get hurt.

On a large piece of dark brown plush, cut out a cape, in the same way that a sun skirt is cut out. Hem the product at both ends so that it looks neat. You can sew a golden “snowball” to the bottom, then the costume will be bright and festive. Make holes for the hands on the sides, sheathe them with a “snowball” too.

Cut out an oval from a beige plush, and sew it to the cape, in the abdomen. Horns can be made in the same way as for a suit with shorts and a vest.

Makeup for a little deer

To apply makeup, you will need the following set of tools:

  • face painting (water-based paints);
  • brushes with natural pile of different widths;
  • sponge;
  • black cosmetic pencil;
  • water or baby wipes.

Apply white paint around the eyes, 1 cm wide, repeating the shape of the eye. Outline it with black pencil. Cover the part from the base of the forehead to the middle of the face with brown paint, leaving the tip of the nose. On the cheeks under the eyes, put large white dots resembling freckles. Paint the tip of the nose with black, add a little white on top.

Attention! To apply makeup, you need to use special paints for working with children. They have a mark at what age they can be used. Most often it is 4-5 years. Cheap decorative cosmetics should not be used. The child may be allergic to it.

And finally, one more piece of advice. Before the matinee, the child can be shown the famous Disney cartoon "Bambi". The kid will not only enjoy a wonderful fairy tale, but will also know that his image on the matinee is the best.

Hello friends! With today's post, I decided to replenish the piggy bank of ideas about what New Year's costumes 2020 can be! An interesting and outstanding option for boys and girls of younger and middle age is a deer costume for the New Year.

Deer costume for the New Year: variations for everyone

The simple instructions below will help you make a cool outfit in 1 day without special skills and talents.

Ideas for the little ones

Tiny pot-bellied deer, who have barely mastered walking, look touching and cute. Costumes for kids are simple and comfortable, and most importantly - safe, not restricting movements. I propose to choose the option with a one-piece jumpsuit or bodysuit. If there is no ready-made outfit, for example, homemade cinnamon fleece pajamas, you will need to try to sew it. Any soft brown fabric will do. It can be faux fur, wool, fleece, felt, velvet and others. You can combine several options for materials, the main thing is that in the end the costume should look like a natural deer skin.

Considering that it is cool in the halls at matinees in winter, you should think about a hood. First, it's warm. Secondly, it is easier to sew ears and horns to the hood. The simplest version of the horns for a toddler costume is gloves tightly stuffed with cotton wool or padding polyester. On the feet of the baby, it is worth putting on soft slippers with a sewn-in toe of the “hoof” type.

Separate outfit for schoolchildren

The jumpsuit or bodysuit option is not quite suitable for older guys. In such a suit, they will be embarrassed and uncomfortable. Therefore, I propose to replace the piecework outfit with a more acceptable one of shorts and vests, sweaters or T-shirts. Again, the main thing here is the material. The fabric should be brown, soft enough, imitating the skin of an animal. If almost every kid has shorts in the house, then it is easy to sew a vest made of fur or velvet according to the plan:

  1. For a sample, take a T-shirt that you don’t mind cutting.
  2. Break it down into details. Sleeves are not needed. On the front, remove the core up to 3 cm wide.
  3. Attach the cut particles to the prepared fabric and circle with a piece of soap or chalk with a small margin of up to a centimeter.
  4. Cut and sew the pieces.

The vest is ready! It remains only to choose a turtleneck to match (yellow, gray or white is suitable), tights or leggings, soft slippers, converted to hooves according to the principle described above. A tiny fur tail can be sewn to the shorts for persuasiveness. The main attribute of the outfit is horns. If gloves filled with rags are enough for a baby, then it is better for older children to make full-fledged horns on a hoop made of felt and wire. Such horns are naturalistic, light and comfortable.

If a little princess decided to dress up as a deer under the impression of a cartoon about the brave Bambi, just replace the shorts or panties with a fluffy plush skirt or sundress. Girls can wear warm fur boots on their feet.

A great addition to a deer costume in men's and female version- cape. Sewing it is easy. Measure the circumference of the child's head and the length from the back of the head to the knee. Choose a suitable brown fabric and make a pattern similar to the one that is being prepared for the sun skirt. To make the cape neat and not crumble, process the edges on a typewriter or manually. For a festive look, add a little rain or sequins to match the color around the edges, make holes for the hands. To make the deer costume look as realistic as possible, glue or sew an oval of white fabric in the front part in the center. This will be the breast of the animal.

Do you need makeup

Makeup on the face of a baby dressed as a deer looks funny and festive. Most importantly, if you decide to paint the face of the crumbs, choose safe face painting paints. Traditionally, the deer is painted in the area of ​​​​the eyes - they are circled with a white strip up to a centimeter wide with a black outline. The forehead can be painted over with brown, the tip of the nose with black. Under the eyes of the deer are large white spots.

Lite version for adults

Adults can try on a deer costume in a simplified version. Overalls and vests with trousers for girls can be replaced with plush mini-dresses and skirts, or leggings and turtlenecks current color. For guys, it can be trousers and turtlenecks. In an adult outfit, the main thing is ears and horns. They will be enough to become recognizable.

Doing both of them is not difficult with your own hands. Start with the horns:

  1. Build a frame from a plastic hoop and pipe cleaners. Try to twist the latter, intertwining with each other so that you get horns.
  2. Cut the paper bag into thin strips. In a container, dilute the glue with water in a percentage ratio of 50/50.
  3. Dip the paper strips in the adhesive solution and trim the prepared frame.
  4. Dry the finished product with a hairdryer and paint it brown.

Ears are even easier to make:

  1. From faux fur or felt, cut out two ears, use contrasting fabrics for the inside and outside.
  2. Prepare a wire frame.
  3. Glue the ears to the frame.
  4. Fasten ready product on the hoop.

Finish the image cool makeup, similar to the one described above for the guys and a great New Year's mood.

Friends, that's all. As you can see, a deer costume for both children and adults is not difficult to make. If you don’t even want to mess around with horns and ears, but your soul asks for a holiday, dress up in a traditional winter thick sweater with Scandinavian patterns, buy ready-made glowing horns and enjoy the effect! I end here, I will be grateful for the repost.

Recently, deer antlers have become a popular accessory for photo shoots and boho weddings. This stylish detail is used with pleasure on postcards and illustrations, in costumes and in the interior. If you urgently need horns, but the deer that will drop them for you is not around, I will show you how to make horns with your own hands.

In many cultures, the deer is identified with light and creation. The ability of this animal to shed and grow new antlers has always seemed like a miracle, so deer have become a symbol of renewal and a new beginning.

The historical entry of horns into interiors as accessories decorating the walls was noted at the beginning of the 19th century and exclusively in the homes of aristocrats. And this detail was massively used in the so-called Alpine style.

How to make deer antlers - materials and tools

It will take us about an hour to make deer antlers with our own hands. They are made in 2 stages. It takes about 30 minutes to complete the blank and glue it with paper. After the glue dries, it takes another 20 minutes to paint the finished product. Length: 32 cm.

  • Aluminum wire - 1 m
  • Pliers
  • Sintepon or other filler - cut approximately 25 x 10 cm
  • 3 cm masking tape or foil
  • PVA glue
  • paper or newspaper
  • tassel
  • Acrylic paints in different colors.

How to make horns with your own hands - the progress of work

I will show you how to make papier mache antlers. If you plan to paint them in more dark colors, you can use a newspaper, and if the horns are light, it is better to take thin white paper. Usually thinner than White paper, which is sold for writing, not for the printer. But if there is none, a tighter one will also do. It just needs to be kneaded longer to make it more pliable.

1. Take aluminum wire and shape it into deer antlers with pliers. To form horns, you can find a picture of real ones on the Internet, enlarge it and simply repeat the outlines.

2. So far, it doesn't really look like antlers. To add volume, tear off small strips of synthetic winterizer, wrap them around the wire and fix with masking tape. If masking tape is not available, foil can be used. At the base of the synthetic winterizer should be more. The closer to the tip, the less filler is needed.

3. Now we take the paper, knead it well and tear it into small strips.

4. We spread PVA on each strip and gradually glue the workpiece. It is better to glue the horns in 2-3 layers to make them strong enough.

5. After the glue dries, you can start painting. Traditionally, the tips and middle are dyed a brighter color. You can separate the areas to be painted with masking tape or draw the borders with a pencil if the surface is not completely flat.

To be able to paint all the details at once, the horns can be hung on a ribbon.

Let the paint dry and enjoy the result.

I made some more horns bigger size and gave them a worn effect.
