How to Make a Dopey Costume

Looking for an easy dwarf costume to make? Learn how to make a Dopey Costume in less than 30 minutes!

My friend Tina made her son the cutest Dopey the Dwarf costume from the movie Snow White. As soon as I saw pictures of it I knew I had to share it with you guys. It’s a very easy costume to make all you need is an oversized  shirt and a hat. The rest are just embellishments she added on. And even better you can make it for under $15 and it takes just 30 minutes to put together.

This is what my friend Tina had to say “I was ecstatic when I found the perfect color sweater in just the right (big) size at Once Upon A Child for $5! The cap was also on sale at baby gap for $4. Just had to dye it the perfect shade of purple. I feel like I’m a real mom now after I’ve made him a costume lol!!”

 

She found an oversized green fleece in the exact same color as Dopey’s costume. She cut out a square felt patch and hand stitched the patch on the elbow.

She found a black cloth belt and used that as Dopey’s belt. If you don’t find one you can always use a piece of black cloth and felt to make the belt. 

She sewed on two wood buttons on the front of the fleece.

 

She used a pair of brown pants she already had and dyed a hat she found purple! 

Here is Colton… I mean Dopey!
