Synopsis

This is a gorgeous book of inspiration for children and parents, full of lovely costumes that are easy to make yourself. The book for example include, the Eiffle Tower, Macaron, Witch, Sushi, Butterfly and Detective. There are 16 costume ideas in total, most of them made out of cardboard, old newspapers, tape and second-hand clothes. Each costume is accompanied by info about estimated creation time, price level and difficulty level.

Personal note from the author

It does not have to be difficult or time-consuming to make costumes. And it is furthermore a rather nice way to spend time with your children. I don't feel like playing Minecraft and I always fall asleep when I watch Lord of the Rings, but I think it is great fun, helping my son make hobbit feet from a pair of old slippers. An old jacket from the second-hand shop can be the key to a new identity as Madonna, a wolf or an electrician. And if your child, or a child you know, is dreaming of becoming a snow leopard or a gangster, then you should give it a go, making some funny costumes. Everything is doable in the Costume Workshop - also with very little!
