Do It Yourself Catboy Costume

If you have a little one who is a fan of the popular animated television series, PJ Masks, then you might want to consider this DIY costume idea for Halloween or just for fun dress-up days. The show features three young kids who transform into superheroes at night to fight off villains. Catboy is one of the main characters and with a few simple materials, you can make your own Catboy costume at home.

Materials Needed:

  • Blue bodysuit or blue long-sleeve shirt and blue leggings
  • Light blue fabric paint or dye
  • White felt fabric
  • Black felt fabric
  • Gray felt fabric
  • Headband
  • Blue fleece fabric
  • Sewing machine or needle and thread
  • Scissors
  • Glue gun and glue sticks

Instructions:

Step 1: Dye or Paint the Blue Clothing

If you do not own a blue bodysuit, you can use a blue long-sleeve shirt and blue leggings. We recommend using a light blue fabric paint or dye to make the color brighter and bolder. Follow the instructions on the paint or dye packaging to properly dye or paint the clothing.

Step 2: Create the Cat Mask

To make the signature cat mask that Catboy wears, use the white felt fabric to cut out two cat ears and the black felt fabric to cut out the shape of the mask. Glue the white cat ears onto the top of the black mask. Then, cut out the eyes and mouth of the mask. Using the gray felt fabric, cut out two small circles and two smaller circles to create the iris and pupils of the Catboy mask. Glue these onto the black mask.

Step 3: Make the Catboy Tail

Using blue fleece fabric, cut out a long strip that is about 8 inches wide and 24 inches long. Fold the strip in half and sew up the long side, leaving the ends open. Turn the tail right-side-out and stuff it with fiberfill or stuffing. Sew the open end closed and attach it to the back of the blue bodysuit or shirt using a needle and thread or a glue gun.

Step 4: Complete the Costume with Accessories

Finally, use a blue headband to wrap around the head and attach the Catboy mask using glue from the glue gun. You can also accessorize the costume with a blue cape made of blue fleece, or even a pair of blue gloves to complete the look.
