Product Information

Add velcro to the ends of the capelet for a closure. Cut 1-inch pieces of pipe cleaner in alternating colors and glue them to the capelet with fabric glue. Cut a piece of brown felt into a 5-inch circle and make the edges wavy like sauce. Add a piece of brown pleated trim around the edge, securing with fabric glue. Get creative with cardboard. There's almost nothing you can't make with some cardboard, scissors, and a good idea.

Forgotten about the World Book Day costume? Here are 10 simple outfits you can make at home to avoid the last-minute supermarket sweep.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar – Eric Carle

For the pig nose, lay the bottle cap on a piece of newspaper and paint it pink. Set it aside to dry overnight. This one is another great last minute book week costume idea. You can make it in about 10 minutes with things you’ve already got at home! For the drummer's hat, wrap the paper around the container to fit to size. (You want to completely cover the oatmeal container.) Trim any excess paper off the top or bottom. Secure paper to the container with two or three glue dots.

To make the feathers, flatten and cut gold and turquoise cupcake liners into teardrop shapes. Glue turquoise to the center bottom of the gold liner. Glue a longer piece of ribbon to the top of the paper (along the uncut portion) and leave it long enough to tie behind like an apron.

This is probably the only time it will be totally acceptible to send your daughter to school in a paper bag… For the cape, apply liners in the same fashion, starting at the bottom edge of the cape and layering them length-wise as you make your way around the cape.
