How to Design a Homemade Flowery Fairy Costume For Your Toddler

Expert Author Daniela Davis

You could dress up your 12 to 24 month old with a cute dress for this Halloween. A toddler fairy costume is not difficult to design, if you have a few accessories, and one main piece of clothing.

First, you should pick out a dress that will become the centerpiece of the entire flowery outfit. You will create a flowery costume for your little daughter, one that will remind everybody of a beautiful rose. This is why you will need a cute red or pink dress. The dress should be very plain and comfortable, so that your little darling can move around freely.

Next, you will create that flowery pattern for the dress. You will need a sheet of dark green velvet. This will be attached at the neckline, in such a manner that it resembles a green leaf collar. Just cut out a collar shape, and cut it into a zigzag pattern.

Onto the dress, you will attach a few layers of sheer nylon, just to emphasize the sparkle of the beautiful rose. Let your imagination work, and create the most wonderful rosy toddler fairy costume for your little darling.

You can attach one rose applique on the dress. This should be a cute faux flower, of smaller sizes, and you may attach it right at the chest. Take a handful of red sparkling sequin beads, and decorate around the flower. You will immediately notice that the cute plain dress has received a special sparkle, and that your toddler fairy costume is almost ready.

You will also create a very nice headpiece, which will match the cute dress. Given the fact, small children will not especially appreciate a heavy headwear you will create a light decorated headband. Just take a thicker piece of satin, on which you can attach one daisy applique at the side.

Now your toddler fairy costume is almost ready. Match the little dress with a pair of pink tights, and a pair of nice booties for children. You can also attach one or two flowery hairpins to your daughter's hair, if you want to.

The main concept of this little flowery costume is that your darling should truly look vibrant, in a nice pink, red, or purple color, with many flowery ornaments. Use your imagination, and make use of as many accessories as you can, such as beads, sequins, satin ribbons, lace, or sheer nylon layers for dress decoration.
