During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

Speaking of Halloween, dressing up in costumes is a classic! Some people put on elaborate outfits or cosplay as popular characters, and the event seems to get more exciting every year.

While there are store-bought costumes, many people consider making their own because they can’t find what they want or the prices are too high.

In this article, we’ll introduce Halloween costumes that are easy to make! None of the outfits take much effort, and they’re all super cute.

Try making them for yourself and for your kids, too!

Triangle hat headband

Here’s an idea for a headband with a felt cone hat.

Cut two circles and one fan-shaped piece from felt.

Roll the fan-shaped piece into a cone and glue it, then snip slits around the bottom edge.

This will be the pointy hat section.

Punch a hole in one of the circles, insert the cone through it, and glue the slit tabs to the circle.

Stuff the cone with cotton, then cap it with the remaining circle.

Decorate with tassels made from embroidery thread or a tulle bow, and glue it onto a headband base to finish! By changing the decorations and colors, you can adapt this lovely idea for a variety of events.
