Storm Cloud Costume

This is my daughter Imari. She loved this costume. I used a fabric umbrella to allow gluing straight on it.

Materials: Umbrella hat, white string lights with remote(Amazon), wire individual mini lights, hot glue, stuffing from old stuff animals, string curtain(Amazon), beads(Amazon), fishing line, iPod with rain storm sounds.

I started by gluing piles of stuffing and then adding string lights and attaching individual lights to fishing line and inserting in various spaces. I then added the string cut in different sizes to edge of umbrella. I also beaded the fishing line different lengths to look like rain and attached to umbrella. Next I glued box from string lights under umbrella. I put the setting on 5 which appeared to look like a lightning storm and added the music, perfect rain/Storm cloud.
