I also sewed two strips of brown felt to the front of the saddle piece in a V-shape to make the harness, and attached one strip of faux leather from the point of the V back to the Velcro straps on the saddle blanket so it all went on just like a regular dog hardness would. ![]() I also sewed a little ribbon loop at the top of the vest where the pipe cleaner from the mane met the saddle, so I could hook the pipe cleaner to the saddle and hold it all together. I sewed straps to the bottom of the red blanket piece to hold it to him, and secured them with Velcro. I tied pieces of white yarn to the pipecleaner to create the mane.įor his saddle/harness, I sewed a piece of black felt onto red felt to look like the saddle on top of a blanket. Then, I wrapped a pipe cleaner around the hat piece and let it extend down the back of his neck. I sewed an elastic strap to the bottom to hold it on his head, and I attached a long, loose strip of faux leather to the top of the elastic pieces to serve as the reins. For his mane, I cut a piece of felt to go across the top of his head like a hat, and cut two ear holes in it. So, let's put together a Tangled family Halloween costume!Īchilles' costume was the only one I made completely off the cuff. I will, however, direct you to my inspiration and any tutorials I followed! There are a couple of exceptions to that statement (most notably, Eric's Flynn Rider vest, which was my largest sewing project to date), but for most of those things, excellent tutorials are already floating around out there on the Internet so I see no reason to reinvent the wheel. Ha! But also, most costumes were just embellished by me, and not made entirely from scratch. I'm not going to do any full tutorials this year, largely because, well, I don't feel like it. Always one to go fully into character, in her daily play she has assigned the rest of us roles in the Tangled cast, so it was an easy fit to assign parts for our family Halloween costume. Ellie has been a hardcore Tangled fan for months now, and she loves playing the part of Rapunzel (of course). ![]() I wanted to do a little in-depth recap of our Halloween costumes, because we had such a great time putting this ensemble together. ![]()
