Homemade Spider Costume for Babies

The proximity of the Carnival makes us start the imagination in search of an original costume for our baby. I propose you a spider costume, which we can also make at home, it is very easy to make and is economical.

We only need three pairs of men's black socks, tights and a baby t-shirt of the same color. To fix the costume to the baby we need a velcro strip, also black.

The first thing is to fill the socks so that the heel angles are marked. We can do it with pieces of foam, cotton or newspaper.

Then, you have to cut a piece of cardboard in an oval shape and paint it black or glue black paper so that the impression of being the body of a hairy spider. There is also a spider that is black and yellow, so if you feel like it you can paint the body with black and yellow stripes.

Once we have the body of the spider we hit the six legs, three on each side, with a strong glue. The bar that is applied with a hot gun is ideal for doing so.

We also have to glue the velcro tape, which we can divide in two so that the spider's body is well attached to the baby's body.

Finally, we have to dress the baby with a black t-shirt and leggings, or pants and socks of the same color. Finally, place the spider's body as a harness.

He spider costume It is soft and light, so I don't think the baby feels too uncomfortable dressed as a black widow.

I hope you like the idea and if you put it into practice we would love to see a photo of the baby-spider in our Flickr group.
