HOW TO MAKE A PIRATE
COSTUME FOR BOYS:
Step one: Make the sword.
The first thing you need to do to
create this DIY pirate costume
is make the sword. Begin with
tracing out a sword shape from
your cardboard. Cut it out and
then wrap the blade part with
silver tin foil. Now, paint the
sword handle with gold spray
paint.
Step two: Create an eye patch.
Some iconic pirate-themed
costumes need an eye patch to
make the whole aesthetic like a
typical pirate. The next step
would be to create an eye patch
using your black felt paper.
Draw a semi-circle that is the
right size and shape to cover
the person’s eye.
Next, get the black string and
wrap it around the person’s head
to measure the length needed to
secure the eye patch — tie it later
on. Lastly, attach your eye patch
to the black string using a hot
glue gun.
Step three: Assemble the top.
Now, we can start assembling
the top. To do this, cut the
sleeves of the black t-shirt and
slice a straight line on the
middle of the tee.
After creating the vest, you can
start sewing the edges to create
a professional seam. Prep the
long-sleeved button-down shirt
and pair it with the vest to
complete the look. Set aside the
top and move on to the pants.
Step four: Cut the sweat pants.
This time you will have to cut
the sweat pants’ bottoms in a
zigzag design until they fall
around your mid-calf.
Step five: Dress up.
Our last but not the least step is
for you to dress yourself up in
the DIY pirate costume you
created. Put on the whole outfit
from the shirt, vest, pants,
boots, and eye patch. Add some
mustache on your face using
the black face paint and voila –
you now have a little pirate
ready to party.

HOW TO MAKE A PIRATE
COSTUME FOR GIRLS:
Step one: Make a hat.
For this DIY pirate costume, you
will have to start with creating
the hat. To do this, measure
your head first using a tape
measure so that you will get the
accurate size for your pirate
hat.
Afterward, draw on two huge
pieces of black paper the shape
of the pirate’s hat. One will be
the front part, while the other
will be the back part. Take note
that if you are not confident
with drawing, you can print out
a template from the internet
and use this as your guide.
Now, attach the edges of the
two parts using glue and let
them dry. Draw a skull design
on the front part of the hat and
use white paint to color it.
Lastly, cut a band of elastic that
perfectly fits your head and
attach it to the head hole with
tape or glue.
Step two: Accessorize the outfit.
To complete this girl’s pirate
costume, grab a bandana and
wear it around your neck. You
can also wear the red bandana
around your waist or wherever
you are comfortable.
Step three: Wear your DIY pirate
costume.
You can now wear your DIY
pirate costume by matching
your black and white striped
tee with a black skirt. Wrap the
bandana around your neck or
waist, then add our DIY pirate
hat for the finale.

DIY pirate costume ideas you
