What kind of outfit to choose for a children's matinee? If all ideas seem banal to you and do not come up with anything new, ask for help from well-known fairy tales from childhood. Everyone knows the story of the wooden boy Buratino - "Golden Key". One of the characters in this tale is the poodle Artemon, the suit of this hero is perfect for any boy!
How to make a fancy dress yourself?
Carnival dresses of factory production are sometimes quite expensive. Why spend so much money on a "one-off" suit, if you can make it yourself? You do not even need to be a professional seamstress. The character of Artemon's costume is quite simple. In a fairy tale he is described as a large black poodle. Choose basic clothes of dark tones. Very good, if you have a black fur vest. From scraps of fur or pieces you can sew small cuffs, put on wrists and ankles. Do not forget to make the same tail, long enough with a pompon on the tip, like a real poodle. If you make a suit of Artemon with your own hands out of clothes that you plan to wear later, all the masquerade details should be made removable. For example, the tail will hold well on a knitted belt or elastic band.
Important details of the image
Any poodle can boast of lush curly ears. Not an exception to this rule is the fabulous Artemon. The suit can be completed with a cap with ears. They are easiest to make of fur or fluffy threads for knitting. Such ears are sewn to any finished black hat or rim. If you do not have such materials, try making a head carnival hat from paper. Cut two ears of a suitable size, glue their outer sides with paper strips cut into fringe from a sheet of black. Separately from thick paper, cut out a strip and glue it from the ring around the head circumference. Attach the ears to the resulting blank. A blue or red satin bow on the neck is an accessory that was constantly worn in the fairy tale Artemon. Suit for the masquerade of this character will be appropriate to complement such decoration. From the same tape you can make small bows and attach them to fur cuffs.
