Did you make the bags as well? It's been years since I have sewn with plastic - what a great idea to put all three together!

Nope I bought a see through bag and have just made interchangeable rectangle pieces of material to slip in the front pocket x x

That's a really clever idea for the bum bag. Saves space as well with just changing the material.

I'd second WDWcouple on you tube. Taylor gives a really handy tutorial for no sew ears. I managed to follow it and I am in no way a craft person. I made loads last year, some for my mum, me and my daughter.





It was fun, but I did find making the bows quite fiddly. I'm not supposed to be making any this year, but some of the designs I've seen in this thread are really good so I might have to make some more.

I just bought the hair bands from Amazon, around £1-£2. The glue gun was just a basic one that was less than £10. The smallest bag of stuffing was £5 and it looks like it's barely been touched. My daughter had some old sequin skirts she was getting rid of and so I made doubles of the rose gold and silver ears for us all. I've still got loads of supplies left over.

For the person who asked how to transport them. I use packing cubes and just pop them all in one cube together. They travel really well.

I hope you enjoy making them it was fun to do.

Well we’ve made a few. The beads on the ears are cut up necklaces that we got from the Princess and Pirates party at WDW years ago😀

They look great. I've just started making a few pairs of my own this week.







I've got a few more pairs to make yet. I've found once you've made a couple of pairs it gets easier as you know what you're doing. The most difficult bit is getting it neat when you initially glue the material around the curved edge of the cardboard. The chip and dale ears were really hard for that because the glitter fabric was very stiff.
