A fun homemade tree trunk disguise to make the children's parties. It is a craft to make a costume for Carnival, Halloween or a birthday party. A very cheap and original costume.

With a cardboard box, paint and desire to have a good time, children can make their own costume. In addition, as it is made with recycling material, it is a good opportunity to educate the little ones in respect to nature and the importance of reusing materials.

How to make, step by step, a tree costume for children

Step 1. Use a large packing box and open it completely with care so that it does not break. You have to get a big square of cardboard.

Step 2. Fold the cardboard every five or ten centimeters to be able to then shape the trunk.

Step 3. Cut a large circle on the top of the cardboard and two smaller ones below and on both sides. The head of the child will come out of the big one and the hands of the other two will come out.

Step 4. Paint all the dark brown cardboard and over it give some lighter brown strokes.

Step 5. To be able to dress the child with the cardboard, you have to make two holes in the ends of the cardboard and pass a string that you knot later.
