Say Yes To Sprinkles
As we head into the last few days before halloween, I wanted to share one last super easy DIY costume.
If you follow me on instagram, you may notice the hashtag I created #sayyestosprinkles – it’s a fun-tastic feed full of sweet treats! I used my hashtag as the inspiration for two sprinkle DIY costumes!
#SayYesToSprinkles (for the non-crafter)
The first look is super easy – and requires very little crafting.
You’ll Need:
– A headband
– Sprinkles (I got two sizes, traditional & circle)
– Sprinkle colored clothes
– Colored hair pins (I got mine on Amazon, but find them any hair store or something like a Claire’s)
– Mini Popsicle sticks (ordered mine on Amazon, but get them at a craft store)
– Spray mount or hot glue
– Sticky Velcro
-Eyelash Glue
– Nail Glue
The How-to:
This costume is seriously so easy! Use the hair pins to attach to your outfit and shoes, depending on the bag you use, you can do the same. I added sticky Velcro to the back of my popsicle sticks (they came pre-painted) and stuck them on my bag, I used the extra and attached them together to create a ring. To create a headband, I used spray mount and sprinkles – but hot glue would work too.
For both looks I glued sprinkles on my face with eyelash glue for easy removal, and used real sprinkles on my nails with nail glue! They’re cute but not super functional so I would only recommend wearing them for your costume.
#SayYesToSprinkles … Again!
This one has a little bit more “crafting” involved but is still crazy easy.
You’ll Need:
– Shift dress (mine is Studio DIY)
– Colored popsicle sticks
– Sticky Velcro
– Eyelash & nail glue
– Sprinkles
– An old clutch
– Old Snekers
– Party Hat
– Spray mount or hot glue
-Sticky Felt
The How To:
This look takes maybe 30 min more work than the first, but is still a quick and easy DIY. Start by adding sticky Velcro to the back of the popsicle sticks and add them to the dress. Then you can create your sprinkle accessories – I rolled a party hat in brown sticky felt, then layered stripes of white felt over the top before dipping the tip in spray mount and covering it in sprinkles.
Use spray mount and painters tape to cover the old clutch, shoes & ring in sprinkle – just make sure you tape off the seconds you don’t want sprinkled before you dip your accessories.
And Viola! There you have sprinkled DIY costume-ness thats both easy and fun!
