Along with the horns, ears should be sewn on the headband. They are sewn using fur pieces of brown shades. 4 squares are cut out, sharp corners are cut off at the top, forming ears. The elements are sewn in pairs, in the center of each segment of a lighter shade. A thin wire is inserted inside each ear, with which you can give the details any shape. The distance between the horns and ears on the headband is about 3-4 cm.

If the role went to a boy, it would not be appropriate to use a bezel. A thick wire trimmed with fur and brown material is perfect for this. It will be hardly noticeable on the head, horns and ears will be in place.

The deer costume is especially relevant for the New Year. After all, the reindeer is right hand Santa Claus.

The costume can be the simplest - in beige, brown-gray tones. For a child, you can pick up gray sweatpants, a brown sweater or tunic, and a red scarf.

The main thing is the horns. And they will have to work hard.















The main element in the deer costume is the antlers. They can be made from gloves, sewn from fabric and filled with padding polyester, cut from thick paper, felt and even made from tinsel. You can attach the horns to the headband (option for a girl), to a hat or hood. The costume itself can be sewn from brown pile fabric or you can choose the right one in the wardrobe. If there is a fleece suit, it can be turned inside out.







If you don’t know how to sew, then the easiest way out is to take the child’s existing things - pants, shirt or sweater, but preferably brown or black. a piece of white fabric can be sewn onto the breast to make a white reindeer breast. And the horns can be copied from a book or taken from the Internet and, cut out of paper, make a rim with horns.

But if you can sew, it is better to buy faux fur with short pile, plush, velvet. Sew a jumpsuit according to this pattern.



From below, the legs can be made with an elastic band or simply tucked up. By the way, the costume can be sewn a little bigger size to use next year).

The cap can be sewn separately, or as a hood to a jumpsuit.



Horns can be made according to this fabric pattern. But you can just use brown paper on the rim, as I wrote above.



Here is something similar you should get.

The deer costume is very good in terms of manufacturing. He made horns on his head and immediately everyone knew who it was.

As the basis of the costume, I will propose to make a cape-cloak.

It is made according to the principle of the sun-klsh. Under such a cape, it is enough to wear elegant clothes.

In addition to the cape around the neck, you can make a frill shirt-front. With her, the costume will look more elegant.





On the head, you can make such a deer mask from fur, felt or paper as in the photo below.

If the costume is made, then it will not turn out as realistic as we would like.

Therefore, I would sew the base in the form of a jumpsuit according to the simplest pattern. You don’t even have to build it, because existing things will be used. It can be a set - a T-shirt / shorts, a jacket / pajama pants. The pattern will be like this:



I would sew from brown velor, and the abdomen would be made from white velor or a white T-shirt, which is no longer needed.

If, nevertheless, there is nothing to sew from, then you can take brown things. Let it be even sweatpants, but only from brown fleece, knitwear and so on.

Longsleeve or turtleneck should also be brown.

You can give any shape to the horns.

Sew the ears from pieces of fabric - just cut out ovals, slightly elongated towards the top. Between them, you can lay a thin layer of synthetic winterizer or wire.

And, of course, do not forget that you can make a drawing on the face. Aquagrim will help you.

By the way, they can only make a spout, as in the photo above.

You can pick up brown sandals / ballet flats / sneakers on your child’s feet. For an adult, it is better to choose ugg boots or sew fabric hooves).

Overalls as the main component deer costume suitable for both adults and children.

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 will do soft tissues brown tint. 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.

An excellent addition to the deer costume in the male and female version is a 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 festive look add a little rain or sparkles 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 in the actual 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.

The image will be finished with a cool make-up, 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.

New Year's Eve for real magical holiday. This day of the year is especially long-awaited for kids: sweets, gifts, fun. They are looking forward to the onset of a fairy tale, because you can turn into a super-hero, an astronaut, a princess or a charming deer. How to make a deer costume with your own hands, learn from the article.

Jumpsuit for the little ones

New Year's masquerade is always very exciting. Creating an image, searching for clothes, finishing touches in the form of accessories and makeup - preparing for a festive event brings a lot of fun, especially for moms, because it is they who first of all ask themselves how to make a costume on their own? So, if you want to new year's eve your baby appeared in the form of a deer, read the instructions for creating a costume

jumpsuit suit

In general, a deer costume can be created from a ready-made jumpsuit. The main thing is that it has a brownish tint, the fabric is plain and soft (plush, woolen, fur) - in general, it should resemble a deer skin as much as possible. You should also pay attention that the overalls have a hood that will fit snugly to the head.

Tip: Dress your baby in a diaper to prevent embarrassing situations.

We sew a suit of shorts and vests

This technique does not require serious skills in sewing. Just take old t-shirt baby, gently tear off the sleeves from her, and cut a three-centimeter strip in the chest area, in the middle.

After attaching the details to the fabric from which you plan to make the costume, circle them with a piece of chalk or soap. Cut out the pieces, leaving an allowance of a few centimeters. Now just sew the pieces.

Actually, the algorithm for sewing shorts is absolutely similar. By the way, as a "basis" for shorts, you can use the child's old panties. That's all - the deer costume is ready! This costume can also be transformed into a girl, replacing the shorts with a flared skirt.

deer in coat

A deer costume can be made from a universal cape - this option is suitable for those who either do not have sufficient sewing experience, or simply do not have too much time. First, measure the circumference of the baby's head and the distance from the neck to the knee or below (the main thing is to find a measure, otherwise the cape will show all its inconvenience while walking).

Take a large piece of fabric and cut out the product, just as you usually cut out a sun skirt. Do not forget that the bottom of the product should be stitched - so it will look neater. By the way, the hem can be decorated with a “snowball” of golden color.

In order to make the deer costume look as realistic as possible, you can cut an oval out of beige fabric and place it on the abdomen.

Homemade accessories

What is a deer costume without good old antlers?

Do not forget to warm the baby by wearing white tights and a turtleneck underneath. You can add a finishing touch to the image by attaching horns made from two white cotton-filled gloves to the hood. The fur tail will be a charming addition to the costume.

Horns can also be made from a wide head hoop. On them, using a hard wire, twist and then wrap them with a material such as cotton wool or twine.

The deer costume will be complemented by competent makeup. You can find video tutorials on how to create an image of a deer on various video hosting sites or experiment on your own with this task. The main thing is to use a special face painting for drawing, that is, water-based paints, since the use of the wrong “resources” can adversely affect the health of the baby. That's it! Properly combining these elements, you can get a costume that everyone around will envy.
