Making a butterfly costume can be a great idea if you’re looking for a fun and cute costume for any party or event. The great thing about making your own butterfly costume is that it’s easy to do and can be adjusted to fit any budget. Here are some easy steps you can follow to make your own butterfly costume.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

For your butterfly costume, you will need some basic supplies including:

– A plain t-shirt and leggings in the color base for your butterfly wings
– Colored tulle or netting in bright butterfly wing colors
– Elastic waistband
– Scissors
– A stapler or glue gun
– Pipe cleaners
– Black felt for butterfly body and details
– Headband

Step 2: Create Butterfly Wings

To create butterfly wings, use the tulle or netting in layered shades of butterfly colors, such as pink, blue, purple, and green. Take a large piece of the tulle and measure it to fit from your neck to the ground. Cut the fabric to length, so it is the exact size needed. Repeat this process on another piece of tulle but make it shorter to place over the top layer of tulle.

Take each of the ends of the tulle and wrap them around a piece of elastic, stapling or gluing them in place. When your elastic fits snugly around your chest, you should have the shape of butterfly wings. You can add more layers of tulle, if needed.

Step 3: Add Butterflies and Body

Cut out a body and details from the black felt. Cut the head and body of a butterfly shape out of the felt. Attach them to the center of your wings by gluing or stapling them. You can never choose how you want your butterfly to look.

Step 4: Add Antennae

Use pipe cleaners for the antennae to complete your butterfly look. Bend one end of each pipe cleaner into a loop to form an “antenna ball”. Attach the pipe cleaners to your headband by twisting their base around the headband. You can also add some sparkly embellishments or glitter to your costume to make it extra special.

Step 5: Wear with Leggings and T-Shirt

Pair your butterfly wings with plain leggings and t-shirt for a simple, but cute look. Make sure your shirt and leggings match the color of your wings, so that your outfit is well coordinated. You can also wear some flats or sneakers to complete your outfit. If you want to make the costume a little more glamorous, add a tutu for an added flare.

Conclusion:

Making a butterfly costume doesn’t take a lot of time or money, and the results can be absolutely stunning. Follow these simple steps to create a costume that will surely get you noticed at any party or event. The trick is to have fun while you’re making it, and the process will be much easier than you think.
