WHERE CAN YOU FIND THE MATERIALS TO MAKE THIS DIY MISS FROOT LOOPS COSTUME?

My favourite thing about this froot loops costume is that the materials are super basic that you probably have these items in your house already and if not, the dollar store most likely has everything! If the dollar store isn’t an option, you can source these materials from many different stores but I like to find my items at craft stores like Michaels, Jo-Ann’s or, online from Amazon or Shein, and I buy my heels from Torrid!

WHAT ARE THE MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THIS DIY FROOT LOOPS COSTUME?

To start your DIY Froot Loops costume, gather the essential materials. You’ll need a plain white big t-shirt or dress as the base of your costume. This will serve the milk to your cereal pieces! Additionally, you’ll need colored felt sheets or felt in a variety of bright colors to represent the different Froot Loops. These can be found at craft stores, dollar stores or online retailers.

Other materials include fabric tape, scissors, and a hot glue gun for attaching the Froot Loops to your costume. To complete the look, consider adding a headband with a spoon, which you can easily make with a plain black headband and a kitchen spoon!

WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

This DIY Froot Loops costume is so great because it barely needs any equipment! All you’ll really need for this DIY costume is scissors, fabric tape, hot glue gun/tape!

Aside from this, you really just need to put everything together!

CAN I SUBSTITUTE ANY MATERIALS OUT?

Of course you can! I love making DIY costumes and 100% encourage to use up what you have or can afford. That is my favorite part of making these costumes! I love the ability to reuse or recreate costumes as much as I want and need. All the materials can be easily found at the dollar store or craft store.

I could not find colours for the froot loops that were EXACTLY like the cereal but in my opinion, it is nice to have a bit of a different look! It just reminds me more that this is homemade and DIY and makes me even prouder to wear it! If you can find exact colours then that is great! If you can’t, it’s totally fine to use the closest you can find!

On Pinterest, I’ve seen lots of people use different materials like pool noodles to create the cereal pieces! I personally like the felt sheets as it’s less bulky and if you’re wearing the costume all day, you have to be careful with pieces that would stick out.

You can use a spoon from home that you already have and hot glue or tape the spoon to a headband to wear but you can also try and create your own spoon with aluminum foil!

DOES THE COSTUME LAST TO USE FOR THE FOLLOWING YEARS?

Yes! If you use the fabric tape for your cereal pieces on your white top/dress, it lasts for a really long time! I have previous costumes like my DIY Pumpkin Jack-O-Lantern Costume that I use fabric tape to pieces onto the dress and to this day, it’s in great condition!

Also really great if you want to take the pieces off and save them but still use the white dress regularly! The fabric tape does not damage the fabric at all!

This DIY froot loops costume is super easy to put together so if you ever want to reuse your costumes for the future, you can easily put this back together!

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PUT TOGETHER?

Okay, so I’ll be honest, cutting circles is not my strong suit so it does take me longer than usual! I put this together while I was filming and it took me about 30 minutes to cut and stick all the pieces! I would say that if you like cutting things, you could probably get away with finishing this within 20 minutes instead!

This costume would be great to put together while you are watching TV in the evening or want to unwind and just do a little bit of crafting in the evening!

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS COSTUME?

While I was trying to decide what costumes I wanted to recreate this year, I saw on Pinterest a few variations of this costume and wanted to recreate it myself! I didn’t like the cereal pieces sticking out and thought it might be annoying to have to watch out for them all night so I thought of trying it out with felt sheets instead for a sleeker look!

I absolutely loved the way this DIY froot loops costume turned out and how easy it was to put together!

STEPS TO PUT TOGETHER THIS DIY FROOT LOOPS COSTUME:

Step 1: Get your 5-7 colours of your felt sheets and cut out 4″ x 4″ circle pieces and then cut out another circle in the middle to resemble a froot loops cereal piece.

Step 2: Next, use your fabric tape to place the froot loops pieces on your dress or white top! You can either place them neatly and in a pattern or scattered! I did mine scattered a little bit to look a bit more realistic for what a bowl of froot loops cereal and milk looks like!

Step 3: Get your spoon and either hot glue or tape it to your black headband. If you’re wanting to reuse the spoon, then taping it is fine! If you don’t need the spoon after this costume, hot glue is a lot more secure!

Step 4: Put on your cereal top/dress, spoon headband, and shoes and have fun in your costume!
