DIY PROJECT // NUTCRACKER COSTUME




Using my existing military blazer, I recreated a nutcracker outfit using duck tapes, Glitter tapes and some Christmas decor strings.

I used felt fabric (to cover the cardboards) and tassels- for my shoulder pads.

For the boots, im wearing a normal boots, but I exaggerated the height of it by covering it with scrap faux leather, I just punched some holes and used the same christmas string that i used on the blazer.

For the Hat, I shaped art board and covered it with tinsels

So there you have it! Instant Nutcracker Costume!

GET THE LOOK // THE NUTCRACKER


Hey Guys, Hope you all enjoyed your Holidays and your New Year's Day Celebrations. 

A prosperous New Year to all of you!

This look was a costume I DIY-ed  for our Christmas Party last December. Using my existing military Jacket as base, I had to come up with ways to liven it up, since it's too plain- Dark Blue. I had to make it more Festive or Christmassy for that matter. Since I used Duct/ Duck Tapes last Halloween for my Manolo (Book of Life) Costume, I thought why not use the same thing as well. I didn't manage to find bright red and blue duct tapes but luckily, since its Christmas time, Dollar stores sells a lot of Christmas craft materials and decors. They were selling sticker tapes in Glittery red and blue- Just what I needed... so that's what I used to create the details of the blazers. It was so fun and easy to do! I really enjoyed It! The best part, I won 1st Prize (BEST IN COSTUME) Wohooo!!!
