Making a chicken costume is a great way to celebrate Halloween or any costume party. A chicken costume is one of the easiest costumes to make, and it is perfect for any age group. It can be paired with other costumes or worn on its own. Here is how to make a chicken costume:

Materials Required

– White or yellow t-shirt
– Long-sleeved white t-shirt
– White or yellow leggings
– Red felt
– Orange felt
– White felt
– Scissors
– Glue gun
– Elastic or ribbon
– Feather Boa
– Red and yellow feathers
– Thick white ribbon

Steps to Make the Costume

Step 1: Begin with the Chicken Head

– Cut pieces of orange felt to shape the beak and two red felt pieces for the comb.
– Shape the comb by cutting two tapered triangles to a height of about 6cm each.
– Attach the comb onto the head by gluing them on top of each other at an angle.
– Next, cut a semi-circlular shape from the orange felt to shape the beak and glue that to the bottom of the comb.
– Cut two small triangles of white felt and attach them to the base of the comb on top of the red felt landing.
– Finally, attach the feathers to the top of the head, extending backward to simulate your chicken’s plumage. Use plenty of glue to ensure that they stay attached.

Step 2: The Chicken Body

– Cut four white felt feathers from your white felt using one of the large feather patterns as a guideline.
– Glue the feathers onto the front of the shirt from the neckline down to form a bib.
– Cut two pieces of feather boa and glue them onto the sleeve cuffs to simulate wings.
– To create the tail, use feathers with a red and yellow colour scheme. Cut a length of about 10-15cm portion of the feathers, then glue them together in a fan shape.
– Pin the tail to your costume to have it in place.
– Finish off by tying a thick white ribbon around your waist and gluing a colorful bead or decoration to the center.

Step 3: Chicken Feet

To make chick feet, you need a pair of orange socks.

– Stuff them with cotton balls or anything bunched up like a ball or newspaper. Make sure you don’t overstuff them and they should easily lie flat on the ground.
– To make the claws, cut a strip of orange felt and wrap it around the toe area of the sock. Glue it in place.
– Shape the felt by cutting it into a skinny diamond shape, then bend it over and glue it on the front of the sock, make sure it stays in place.
– Wrap a small ribbon or elastic around your ankle, then glue the chicken feet you have made onto it.

Step 4: The Final Look

Putting on the chicken costume is easy, just match the body and head, then put the feet on each of your shoes, and you are ready to show off your masterpiece!.
