DIY Girl Pirate Costume HOW-TO

Step 8TIE UP YE PUFFY SHIRT

TIE UP YE PUFFY SHIRT
Take another piece of long ribbon (I used the same ribbon as in the corset, but you don't have to) and attach a safety pin to the end of it.

Thread the ribbon, using the safety pin, from the front hole on one shoulder, through the casing, to the front hole on the other shoulder. Then thread another ribbon through the back two holes.

Place the shirt back on the body form and tie the ribbons on each shoulder into pretty bows.

Next sew the sleeves up on the inside, to make it a short-sleeved shirt by first pinning up the sleeves and then using your sewing machine. Don't worry about making it perfect, you want to make it bunchy.

Finish off your perfect pirate costume with a pair of knee-high leather boots, a pair of fish-net tights, a black slip or skirt, some random and flashy pirate jewelry, and of course a bandana.

This is a great costume that you can make for way less money than you would buy in a costume store. It's completely unique! I would love to see your interpretations of this project! Have fun! Argggg!
