Purple Minion Costume for Kids

Product Information

After going over the pros and cons of each method – we decided the project foam option would be the best suited one. I did 3 different trial runs with different products to use to style the hair and the one I liked the most was using the strong hold hairspray.

I cut the bib part out separately and honestly I think it would have looked better as a solid piece on the purple minion costume. I wouldn’t recommend brushing the yarn out because it’ll all start coming out and you’ll be left with an evil minion who looks like he’s loosing his hair, lol.To see their sweet smile and the excited look on their face to wear it around and be that character? Many of the current costume tutorials require a lot of crafting to get the costume done; this tutorial requires no sewing and minimal crafting. This year my son decided he wanted an evil purple minion costume for Halloween and I’m going to walk you through the steps to make your own, so you can enjoy the smiles and laugher of your little one being an evil purple minion can bring! We finished it off with my son wearing a black shirt (because you can see through the mouth), black pants, and black boots.

Hopefully, this tutorial will significantly shorten the time you have to dedicate to your child’s costume! I used glue adhesive spray and glued the inside of the hair to the dome shaped head so it would cover the very top of the head (looking down into the costume). The color wasn’t exactly the purple I was hoping for, but we couldn’t find another purple that would work better.
