How to Make a Pink Poodle Costume for Adults

Save money!
Make a costume out of footies and you get to use the footies all year long.

Making your pink poodle costume for adults:

Start with a pair of pink footed pajamas

Make a Poodle Headpiece

from pink Mesh (available 6 foot wide for about $2 a yard from fabric stores), ribbon, ears, and a headband (see photo below).

Make 6 Frou-Frou bunched-up mesh thingys from ribbon and pink mesh.

Tie one to a headband (available at grocery and drug stores) with ears made from craft foam or posterboard.

See photo at the bottom of the page for how to push a ribbon through Mesh with a paper clip (in case you don't own a needle).

Make a Poodle Tail

Use 1 Frou-Frou bunched-up mesh thingy to tie to a poodle tail made from craft foam or posterboard.

Pin it to your butt.

Put the rest on your wrists and ankles.

Make a Poodle Collar

from craft foam or ribbon

Cut a little pink heart, bend a paper clip to hold it to the collar, use a marker to make "belt holes", tape it around your neck.

Photo below shows how to get a ribbon through mesh by using a paper clip (tape the paper clip shut - the mesh will tear a little when you pull the ribbon through, but it's just a costume!):
