Including ELEVEN costume ideas, from inspiration for Book Day (with wonderful book wings and a pages tutu), to ideas for Halloween (with a creepy cape and a spider headdress).

Be creative and use this art box and your imagination to express yourself through wild and wonderful outfits!
There are so many occasions throughout the year when costumes are virtually essential! Halloween, World Book Day, Easter (bonnets), festivals, Carnival and birthday parties to name but a few. Though, to be honest, some of us don’t need an excuse to dress up and shine! We love the idea of creating our own costumes… especially from simple and easy materials from around the home.
This box includes ideas for Book Day (with wonderful book wings and a pages tutu), as well as ideas for Halloween (with a creepy cape and a spider headdress). It includes ideas for Easter (with a wild bonnet hairband and flower power pin) as well as ideas for festivals, parties and carnivals including a creative crown, an Egyptian-inspired collar necklace, a magnificent mask, a paint-palette handbag and a recycled paper doll!
We hope that this box will be a year-long creative journey for you in crazy costume-making. We have recommended certain dressing-up ideas for specific celebrations, Halloween, Easter – however, these are just suggestions and you can mix and match as you wish! We also recommend add-ons to the main costumes, accessories that you could put together from materials you have at home. Be creative and use your imagination to express yourself through wild and wonderful outfits!
