I've always made Sofia's costumes, so I was very happy this year when she said she wanted to be a peacock. I was happy to craft this costume!
We used an already existing gymnastics leotard, picked up some leggings from Walmart and purchased tulle to make her tutu from Walmart as well.
I ordered feathers from Amazon. Have you ever tried to buy peacock feathers at Joanne's, etc? They are $3+ per feather. Crazy!! I used a little cardboard to attach the feathers to and then disguised the card board with craft feathers and used ribbon to attach it to her back.
The mask came from Amazon as well. I must say, it was actually rather easy to put this one together!
She was super excited for the costume contest and I'm happy to report that she won!!! She walked away with a $10 gift card and a bunch of candy.
