Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Pot
Start by choosing a green pot or basket that is big enough to fit around your waist comfortably. You can find these at your local craft store or repurpose an old basket. Ensure it is sturdy and will hold the weight of the costume.
Step 2: Create the Daisy Flowers
Take the fake flowers, preferably daisies, and carefully detach them from the stems. You will need enough to cover the top of the pot. Using the hot glue gun, attach the flowers to the rim of the pot, creating a blooming effect.
Step 3: Make the Stem
Using the brown fabric or clothing, create a long strip that will serve as the stem of the daisy. Attach it to the back of the pot using the hot glue gun. Ensure it is secure and won’t come loose while wearing the costume.
Step 4: Prepare the Leaves
Cut out leaf shapes from the green fabric or felt. Attach them to the stem of the daisy costume using the hot glue gun. This will add a realistic touch to the costume and complete the look.
Step 5: Wear the Costume
Put on brown clothing to blend in with the stem of the costume. Secure the pot around your waist using a belt or straps. You can also paint your face green to match the theme of the costume. Don’t forget to wear a headband with additional daisy flowers for a finishing touch!
