Yield: 1 costume

Materials

  • 1 beige dress
  • 1/4 yard brown felt
  • 1/4 yard yellow felt
  • 1/4 yard red felt
  • temporary hem tape or a needle and thread
  • hot glue
  • scissors

Instructions

  • Cut out a rectangle, about 7-10 inches wide and the length of your dress (from neckline to hemline) from the brown felt. Trip the top and bottom of the rectangle into a curved shape.
  • Cut a wavy line, about one inch thick, from both the red and yellow felt.
  • Hot glue the yellow to the center of the brown "hot dog" piece. Then hot glue the red right next to it, overlapping slightly.
  • Attach hem tape along the entire edge of the hot dog. Peel off the backing and adhere to the dress, pressing firmly to secure.
  • Use a needle and thread to tack the top and bottom of the hot dog to the dress for extra security, if desired.
