DIY Olaf Halloween outfit | #COLLABOWEEN



Hey Cuties! This post is apart of AGingerBlondie's Halloween collaboration series called #COLLABOWEEN. So we decided that we would do a Halloween outfit idea blog post for you guys. AGingerBlondie is doing a dress up like Sandy from Greece and I am doing a dress up like Olaf from Frozen! Make sure you check out AGingerBlondie's blog, I love it: www.agingerblondie.blogspot.co.uk


For this costume you will need:
  • A pair of white shorts - H&M
  • A pair of white leggings/tights - Newlook
  • A white long sleeve top - Newlook
  • A white beanie 
  • A pair of white shoes/trainers - ASDA
  • Black card - Paperchase
  • Orange card - Paperchase
  • Glue (I recommend PVA glue) - Paperchase
  • A pair of scissors
  • String
  • Double sided tape - Paperchase
  • Brown pipe cleaner 
If you already have these items then you won't have to spend a penny! However, don't panic if you don't have all of these items because I have linked most of the items to websites where I found them for a reasonable price.

Step 1:
So let's start of with the buttons for Olaf. So first cut out 3 medium size circles from your black card. Then stick them on the middle of the white long sleeve top (make sure the buttons have a bit of a gap in between them and that they are stuck in a vertical line). 

Step 2:
Now let's make the nose. So Olaf has a carrot for a nose but obviously it may be uncomfortable if we was to wear an actual carrot for a nose so we have to make one from card instead. First get an A4 piece of orange card and roll it up into a cone then stick the sides together. Then hole punch 2 ends at the opposite end of the nose. Then put the string through and tie a knot (make sure the string length is adjusted to fit your head). 

Step 3:
Now for Olaf's hair. Get about 4 prices of brown pipe cleaners and poke them through a white beanie. Then bend them to make them look more like twigs. 

Step 4: 
Finally, wear a pair of white shorts and leggings/ tights with a pair of white shoes/trainers.
