We sew slippers and ballet flats
To sew ballet shoes for the Tinker Bell costume, I used this pattern.
The size was adjusted in the Photoshop editor. To do this, I measured my daughter’s foot and then adjusted the drawing to this size. The reference points were the notches on the toe and heel of the sole pattern. Don't forget seam allowances. If you can’t use Photoshop, trace the outline of the foot on paper, and make the top of the slipper yourself, focusing on the proposed drawing. It is necessary that the length of the lower side of the side surface of the pattern is equal to the length of the semicircle of the foot.
Materials for sewing Tinker Bell ballet shoes
- Remains of lycra from a top
- Cotton fabric for the inside in any color

Top for Tinker Bell costume
There is nothing complicated here, we take a piece of lycra, fold it face to face, take a suitable T-shirt for the child and trace it directly over the fabric. We immediately model it - make a one-shoulder top. We process it on an overlocker, while grinding it down. The shirt is almost ready.
We cut out facings for the neckline and armhole. Fold in half and iron.
Next is another one of my problems. I decided to put an Epaulet on the shoulder of the top. I took the remains of the gabardine crepe, cut out a rectangle, and extracted the shape of the leaves from it.
By the way, here in the photo below you can see how best to process the transition between the leaves; do not lay the line at an acute angle, but so that it runs as if perpendicular to the cut. The skirt is the same. After notches along the perimeter, with this stitching, the part will fit better after turning it inside out.
We take double-sided interlining and cut it to the size of the part or a little smaller by a few millimeters. We turn the part inside out and put it inside. Iron it. It turns out like this. Small creases between the leaves need to be straightened immediately after turning the part inside out. And also make notches as close to the stitch as possible.
Next, we make leaf veins on the epaulette in the same way as on the skirt, and sew them to the Tinker Bell top. From the remnants of the satin ribbon I made droplet-shaped petals, carefully processed the edges over the candle, not until they were black), they bent a little and took on a concave shape. Then I sewed them with monofilament to the top. It turned out so airy and unusual.

Instructions for creating a costume
When all the materials are prepared, you can begin making the main elements of the costume.
Tulle skirt . It is better to choose a wide elastic band that matches the color of the future skirt. We measure the length of the elastic according to the girl’s waist and sew it together. We pull the finished belt over the back of the chair. Next you will need tulle of one, two or three colors. The number of shades depends on the author’s idea. Tulle must be cut into ribbons about 15 cm wide and about 50 cm long. The length can also vary.
Advice. It is better to make the ends of the tulle segments beveled. Then the skirt will look fuller.
Now let's assemble the skirt. To do this, we fix each piece of fabric with a knot on an elastic band, alternating shades. The skirt is ready!
Wings . First, let's make a pattern. We draw the chosen shape of the wings on cardboard. Now bend the wire or cord along the contour. We wrap the junction of the ends of the wire with tape.
If there is a transition of the wings from large to small, then you can fix the fold using thread, nylon or silicone. We stretch the fabric over the finished structure. To do this, cut off the “legs” and socks from tights or stockings and tie one end with a knot. Now we stretch this blank onto the frame of one wing. We tie the edges of the stocking into a knot using thread. We place the resulting knot on one side - closer to the back, so that it is not visible. We do the same with the second wing.
The wings can be attached directly to the suit or additionally attached with elastic bands to be worn on the shoulders. To make elastic bands, take a wide satin ribbon in the color of the wings, fold it in half and sew it together. We pull the elastic band inside. She should pull the tape a little.
To fix the elastic, sew a piece of felt and sew elastic bands to it. Now we sew this blank directly to the wings themselves. On the outside, the place where the wings are fastened can also be decorated with a felt overlay decorated with flowers or beads.
Now let's start with the design. Here you can give free rein to your imagination. Rhinestones, sequins, beads, sparkles, beads, and a volumetric outline will be used. All small parts are glued with glue.
Advice. Use a cardboard pattern of wings as a rough draft. Draw your designed design on cardboard, place a wing on top and start decorating along the outline.
Magic wand . To create a magic wand you need to make a star-shaped blank from felt. To add volume, you can stuff the star with cotton wool or synthetic padding. Now we place the resulting blank on a wooden stick.
The pattern on the star is embroidered with beads and sequins, and New Year's rain or flowing ribbons of various colors can be attached to the base.
Headdress . There are many options for fairy headdresses. For example, you can decorate an ordinary children's hairband with ribbons, flowers or tinsel. According to the diagram, you can make a small crown from wire and decorate it with beads and beads. In children's stores, closer to the New Year holidays, small tiaras with fastenings in the form of a headband or scallop begin to be sold.
The most touching image for a girl for the New Year is a sorceress or fairy. A carefully thought out fairy costume, made by yourself, can become a real masterpiece.
