Step 4Secure flaps
iImage Information

We started by securing the flaps inside the box with tape to help stabilize the box and to keep the flaps out of the way when walking around or when putting the costume on or taking it off. In the end this didn't work very well as the duct tape peeled away from the cardboard over time. Once the costume was finished we ended up having to remove the tape and we secured the flaps using hot glue, which worked great. So from the start we recommend you secure the flaps with hot glue. Packing tape could possibly work better than the duct tape did but we didn't test that out.
