It would seem, what a problem - to make Pinocchio! But not everything is so simple. On the eve of children's matinees, school masquerades and student themed parties, parents and adolescents rush to the shops bustlingly in search of a Buratino costume or at least improvised materials from which you can independently make a Buratino mask or wardrobe details.

Instructions
Step 1
The most important detail of a costume that will make a wonderful Pinocchio out of any child or even an adult is the nose. The nose must be long and sharp, and you can make it the old fashioned way from cardboard, or using modern materials - from latex. You should not glue your nose to your face, the glue may be too strong.
In addition to a nose, a cap is needed to make a Pinocchio costume. No flowers or polka dots, just a red and white stripe. If it is not possible to sew a cap, it can be tied. For this purpose, it is better to use cotton threads and two rings, with which you will need to build a white tassel on the cap. Cotton threads "Iris" in red and white are perfect for knitting a cap. And the knitted cap will look even more organic than the one sewn from strips of fabric.
Step 2
If there is no time for knitting, the cap can be made of colored paper and decorated with a sultan made of white paper ribbons. The golden curls sticking out from under the cap, memorable from the film and illustrations from children's books, will not be superfluous. You can use an old blonde wig, doll hair, or purchased overhead strands of a light shade on the curls. They only need to be pre-curled with hot tongs and the resulting curls should be fixed with hairspray.
Step 3
Short pants are considered another mandatory attribute of Pinocchio. Pinocchio in trousers or jeans is nonsense. Therefore, do not be lazy: we take out summer shorts or breeches, fasten suspenders to them, combine shorts with a contrasting shirt and, Pinocchio is ready.
And most importantly, making Pinocchio's costume, cap and nose is not difficult. It is much more difficult and more important for Buratino to have a real Buratino's wonderful open smile, an enchantingly optimistic mood and eyes burning with enthusiasm. Then Buratino will be the most real.
