DIY Fanta Costume

1st November 2019

Sort of last minute my daughter got asked to be soda themed costumes with a group in her school’s Halloween parade. Guess what my child chose? Grape Fanta. Guess what I couldn’t find on Amazon to be shipped to my house in enough time for Halloween? Yep, a grape Fanta shirt. Therefore, off to Hobby Lobby I went to get supplies to make her a Fanta shirt.

I TRULY believe that almost anything can be made from felt and hot glue. I have made almost all of my kid’s costumes from these two crafting materials. It’s all so cheap that it chokes me up with joy.

It took me about an hour total to make this shirt. I made my own stencil from copying it from the computer screen and cutting it out letter by letter. Here she is!

For the grapes, I used a Styrofoam snowman ornament kit that I got 50 percent off for just a a little over a dollar! I painted them, hot glued them together, added felt leaves, and the hot glued the whole thing on to a hair clip I took an old bow off of. Super easy. I ALMOST added a straw coming out of the grapes by painting a toilet paper roll, but I changed my mind. Does anyone drink from soda cans with a straw? I don’t know.

Pin, share, enjoy!
