Product Information

Additionally, I created ridges along the body of the costume by either folding and sewing the fabric or using fabric markers to draw lines. Each project begins with a passion for true quality–embroidered patches, faux fur cut with care, and hand-selected fabrics that are as durable as they are comfortable.

Alternatively, you can repurpose an orange dress or jumpsuit and modify it to resemble a carrot shape 1 .These accessories will tie the whole look together and make your carrot costume stand out even more. No matter how much time it takes, our goal has always remained the same–to create products that inspire your life's best moments–the big, the small, the funny, the spooky, and the sweet. Before wearing the costume, it’s important to check for any loose threads or hazards that could cause discomfort or accidents. For a fun and playful touch, you can also consider adding a green headpiece or wig to resemble the carrot’s green leaves.

In addition to the fabric, you will also need some basic tools and supplies such as scissors, a sewing machine or needle and thread, pins, and a measuring tape.

After completing the main construction of the costume, it’s important to try it on and make any necessary alterations for a perfect fit. Using either fabric chalk or a fabric marker, I carefully traced the pattern onto the fabric, making sure to transfer all the details such as the leaves and ridges. Choosing appropriate shoes or footwear that complements the orange color of the costume is important. Our costumes are designed and manufactured with love to provide fun and happiness to people of all ages.

Once the basic body pattern is complete, it’s time to add the details that will make the carrot costume come to life. Using fabric paint or markers, I added some orange lines and dots to resemble the texture of a carrot. I carefully measured and marked the desired locations for the arm and leg openings, and then used sharp scissors to carefully cut them out. Sewing zippers or velcro along the edges of the openings made it easy to put on and take off the costume without any hassle. Finally, I added any final embellishments such as bows or ribbon that I felt would enhance the look of the carrot costume.Using a sewing machine or needle and thread, I sewed along the pinned edges, removing the pins as I went along. These small details may seem insignificant, but they can make a big difference in the overall appearance of the costume.

Tie a knot on each end of a piece of string and place on end against the side of the inner hoop and the other end on the opposite side. Push the outer circle of the hoop over the felt, string and inner circle and turn the screw on the top of the outer circle to tighten.
