Need a Snoopy Costume? Who wouldn't love dressing up like a cute, adorable dog for Halloween? First of all, women love dogs. Secondly, if you can't think of a dog costume all on your own, there are plenty of awesome, super-star dogs already out there to be inspired by. In fact, I will give you an example. How about Snoopy?
You remember him don't you? Everyone knows Snoopy - he's that great dog from the Charlie Brown cartoons that we grew up with. Plus, and this is important, you're in luck because it's actually pretty easy to make a Snoopy costume in the first place. So let's get started right away.
First of all, you will need two white sheets. Don't try to short cut it short using pillow cases either. It just won't work. These sheets need to be at least twin size - maybe bigger depending on your size. First, line the two sheets up with one right next to the other. You should do this on the floor so that you can easily spread them out full length and flatten out all of the wrinkles. Also, be sure to situate them so that you can easily fold one over the other.
And now you'll want to take your hot-glue gun and make a hot-glue oval on the top one third of the flat sheet. Then, quickly fold it over onto the other sheet and press it down so that the glue bonds the two sheets together. This is going to be Snoopy's face. Cut this part out and lay it to the side as it cools.
Next, you'll need to make two boxing-glove sized circles on the rest of the sheet. Use the hot-glue to outline them the same way that you outlined Snoopy's face. Then fold the sheet over each circle and press it down. These will be Snoopy's paws - an intricate part of any Halloween Snoopy costume. Now this is very important - remember to make them large enough so that you can put your hands inside them later. Cut these out and set them off to the side.
Next, take your two cut circles and your large oval head and cut smaller half circle into the sides of each. The circle should cut into the hot-glue portion. These holes will be where you put the stuffing through to fluff up the pieces. They will also be where you put your hands through. Keep in mind that you will be wearing Snoopy's head like a hat, so don't make that hole so big that your head falls through it.
And now it's time to take your 2 cut circles and your large oval head and cut smaller half circle into the sides of each. The circle should be cut inside the hot-glued portion. These holes will be where you put the filling through to fluff up the pieces for your Snoopy costume. They will also be where you put your hands through. You will be wearing Snoopy's head like a hat when it's complete, so don't make that hole so big that your head goes through it.
Add some white tight or sweats to cover the rest of your body and a pair of white tennis shoes and socks and you're done. On Snoopy's face, cut two slits near the hole for you head and find ribbon, string, or shoe laces to tie it down to your head.
Now it's time for some fun - So go grab Linus, Charlie Brown, Woodstock and the rest of the Peanuts gang and let's all go find the Great Pumpkin together. You are ready to rock the town in your awesome Snoopy costume this Halloween.
