No-Sew DIY Lion Costume

The Lion:

What you need:  

2 Yellow T-shirts  

1 Orange T-shirt

Headband

Small Cardboard Pieces 
Glue 

1. On the first yellow shirt trace and cut a large half circle from the collar to mid-chest on both sides (it should resemble a dickey.)  

2. Next, cut ½” to 1” vertical pieces up to the collar on the front and back.  

3. Repeat with orange t-shirt. Reserve the last yellow t-shirt at the base.  

For The Ears:  

1. Cut two small half circle pieces (about 2”) pieces of cardboard to create the ear base.  

2. Next from the yellow and orange scrap pieces cut 2 ½ - 3” pieces to cover the cardboard.  

3. Glue the yellow on first and then the orange over it.  

4. Now glue the ears to the headband. Optional: Add a couple fringe pieces to the top of the headband.  

You can wear the mane two ways: either layered around the next or on the head with the headband. Both are adorable!
