How to Make a Homemade Ariel Costume
Ariel is the princess in Disney’s “Little Mermaid.” Girls from all over the world simply adore her. In fact, she is one of the princesses that they most want to be. Fortunately, it is easy to make this costume yourself.
Things That You Will Need
- A shiny red wig
- A sequined bikini top
- Seashells
- A finlike skirt
- Flesh-colored shoes
- A tiara
- A hot glue gun
- Put on a shiny, red wig. Make sure that it is long and flowing since Ariel lives in the sea where her hair blows in the wind. You can purchase one of these from Disney. They are available in both children and adult sizes.
- Choose a sequined bikini top. Keep it modest but glamorous. So, make sure that you can move around in this top without exposing yourself to others as children really look up to her and you don’t want to diminish her reputation at all.
- Glue some seashells to your top but don’t make it too heavy as you don’t want it to pull the top down any.
- Choose a fin-like skirt. Make sure that you try it on. While it may be a bit limiting whenever you move around in it, the skirt should also be comfortable. It should also match your top.
- Wear a pair of flesh-colored shoes. Since Ariel only and doesn't walk around on land she doesn’t need shoes. However, you need them to protect your feet, which is why flesh-colored shoes are the best option.
- Put on an Ariel tiara.
