in Hive Diy6 months ago

Good day hivers!!!!
What's up everyone?I hope you are all doing great today.

Last week ,the school where my son is studying announced the English Month Culmination in the last day of November and the students are required to wear a character costume.

Last year I got a problem for my son's costume when the items I ordered from online shop did'nt come and it said that my phone number can't be reached ,so after their third attempt on contacting me ,the parcel was return to the seller.

My son that time was so sad as their school activity will be happen on the next day.Luckily,I able to borrowed from my neighborhood ,a king costume I only had to buy a crown for it.

So now since we are facing financial crisis ,I told my son that were not going to buy or rent a costume .We will going to create his own costume and glad that he agreed on me.

My co-parent was asking me if what costume character my son will be wearing for this school activity and I answered I did'nt decide yet.She showed me some affordable costume from online shop but I am thinking to make a diy costume so that we can't spend money.

She told me about her daughter's costume which she ordered from online shop,it is Elsa costume and there I got an idea what to make for my son's DIY costume.

I am thinking to make an OLAF costume since he had a white shirt and white jagger.

Paste the 3 circles infront of the white shirts or long sleeves.

Using the black colored paper make two circles and cut a small circle for the eye center.

Anyway ,I did this DIY costume yesterday's night(Wednesday)when my kids was already sleeping so no one will disturb me.

Sadly my son got a fever last Tuesday but still I am making a costume for him Incase he wants to attend the school activity .Even if he can't attend I still making a costume for him as I promised to make it.

So this morning ,he does'nt feel better and I will not allow him to go to school for their school activity but I showed him the costume I made.
He was amazed but he said the cap which is Olaf's face did'nt look like Olaf hahaha.

He told me what to do ,he was asking me to make a smaller eyes and paste it nearly to the other eye.
And he told me to put a small branch of the head hahaha .
