How to Make a Toddler Halloween Costume for Your Little Darling: Tips for a Savvy Designer

Making costumes for toddlers can sometimes be difficult – small accessories should be used, not harmful materials like wire or cardboard etc. You can make a wonderful toddler Halloween costume for your little girl very simply, with just a few harmless accessories.

First, you need to decide what character you want your baby to become. It can be a cartoon character, a sweet ladybug or even the cutest little bee. If you choose to dress your toddler in a bee costume, your task will be a breeze. Apart from the fact that it is easy to design such an outfit, the result will simply excite everyone.

To begin with, you will need a sharp plain yellow dress. This will become the staple for designing the toddler Halloween costume. Choose a dress that is made from a non-irritating fabric, such as cotton, satin, or velvet.

These are all fabrics that allow your baby’s skin to breathe properly, and will not irritate it in any way. On the neckline of the dress, you will sew some gold sequin beads. Your baby should not only be beautiful, but also bright. In the upper part of the dress, you will need to create some stripes, which mimic the body of the little bee.

Take a piece of shiny black satin, cut out some stripes, which are the same size. You will sew them on the dress, starting from the chest and up to the waist. Now your toddler Halloween costume starts to take on a nice shape.

Along with each stripe you have sewn, you can also glue or sew on some black sequin beads to add sparkle. It takes some time until you are completely done with the costume, but you will simply be rewarded when you see your baby dressed in this special outfit.

You also need some fabric flower appliques. You can choose from tiny roses, sunflowers, or daisies. These are all extremely cheerful and lively little flowers, and if you put some of them in the costume, your little daughter will look very precious.

A toddler Halloween costume that is half a bee and half a bouquet of flowers is the cutest combination you can create. Pair this costume with a pair of black baby tights, a pair of little black shoes, and a pair of sponge bumblebee wings. These wings are very easy to make, just cut out the shape you want and cover them with a shiny fabric.
