Do-It-Yourself Sushi Kids Costume

Looking for a fun and creative costume for your child to wear this Halloween? Why not go for a sushi-themed costume? Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to create a do-it-yourself sushi costume for your little one.

What You’ll Need:

• White t-shirt
• Orange or red t-shirt
• Black fabric paint
• White fabric paint
• Black headband
• Green felt
• Fluff stuffing materials
• Hot glue gun and glue sticks
• Scissors

Step 1: Create The Rice Layer

Start by using a white t-shirt and cutting off the sleeves. Then, cover the t-shirt with fluff stuffing materials to make it look like a rice layer. Cut the materials to the size of the t-shirt and hot glue it into place. Once you have the rice layer, use a paintbrush and white fabric paint to add some details to make it look more realistic. Let dry.

Step 2: Create The Sushi Layer

For the sushi layer, use an orange or red t-shirt and cut off the sleeves. Take black fabric paint and create the seaweed layer around the edge, allowing some space for the filling. Next, cut a long strip of green felt and lay it down on top of the seaweed layer to mimic the vegetables in the roll. You can cut a piece of white felt to represent the crab or fish filling in the center.

Step 3: Add Some Accessories

To complete the look, use a black headband and attach a small piece of green felt to it to make it look like wasabi. You can also create chopsticks by painting wooden chopsticks in black or use a pair of plastic chopsticks from a Japanese restaurant.
