Do you make your own ears?
 
It’s something I am thinking of having a go at. I’ve seen some cheap basic ears I thought I could use and just recover.
Anyone have any tips!

Yes, I’ve done both the recover and start from scratch options. Recovering is nice and quick! Just trace to make a template and then cut that shape (plus a little bigger for the seam allowance). Sew the round part on the machine, flip inside out and cover the ears, then handstitch or hot glue to close.

It takes so little fabric that I find it quite a joy to buy the smallest cut of something I’d never justify as a clothing project!

I love the parks one but they are so expensive! As I type this Mum & I are currently in the middle of making a pair using Disney fat quarter material Aldi keep bringing out! I'll post a picture later on once they are finished :)

We bought a glue gun which in total with the sticks cost us about £8 from The Range. Mum has got a sewing machine so we have stitched some things :)

I made all the ears in these pics for our trip last year. The orange pair are a recovered pair the rest I followed a no sew ears tutorial I found on Ebay. It was fun to do and we got so many comments on them xx

I’m finding these very inspiring!

These are my homemade efforts for this years trip.
Still got a few left to make.

They look great. Especially love the second pair with the lightning!

Where are people getting headbands from? I struggle to find decent adult sized ones.
