Pinocchio is a kind and beloved hero of children's fairy tales, beloved by all boys. Often kids want to play his role at carnivals and New Year's parties. Of course, you can buy a ready-made costume, but it’s better to bring the fairy tale to life with your own hands. You don't need the skills of a professional seamstress for this. Sew carnival costume for little Pinocchio with your own hands.
What to make a Pinocchio costume from?
An outfit for a boy made of satin or velvet fabric will look very beautiful. The costume of a fairy-tale hero consists of shorts or trousers and a sweater. Outerwear Can be made with long sleeves or short. Take the pattern of a simple children's T-shirt as a basis or outline your son's favorite T-shirt. If desired, you can complement the Pinocchio costume with a vest to match the shorts. It is better to cut it from the same fabric. In addition to the costume, you need to sew a cap from striped or plain fabric, make the hero’s nose and golden key, and buy white knee socks.
Master class on sewing a cap for Pinocchio
It’s easier to start sewing a costume for a boy “Pinocchio” with your own hands with small details, gradually the sewing process becomes more and more fascinating.
For Pinocchio's cap you will need:
White and red fabric (you can take any available fabric);
Scissors;
One pompom tassel.
Step No. 1 Constructing a pattern
First, let's take the necessary measurements. To do this, measure the circumference of the baby's head. Add 2 cm to the resulting measurement. We begin making the pattern on paper.
We draw a straight line equal to our measurement + 2 cm. Divide it in half and draw a perpendicular equal to the height of the cap, shifting it down by 5-7 cm. We draw lines from the edges of the straight line to the top of the resulting perpendicular. It turns out to be a kind of triangle. Cut out the paper blank.
Step No. 2 Cut out the details of the cap
We transfer the pattern to the fabric, outline it with chalk, and make seam allowances. Cut out the piece from the fabric.
You can make a red cap with white stripes. To do this, the paper pattern is cut into several horizontal strips. Lay them out on a piece of white and red fabric, alternating in size and not forgetting about seam allowances. Cut out the details of the cap.
Step No. 3 Sewing a cap
We sew the fabric piece along the back seam, folding the piece facing inward.
When sewing a striped cap, first overlay all the stripes. Then we sew them together, alternating red with white. Finally, we sew the cap piece along the back seam.
We decorate the finished cap with a tassel made of wool threads. If desired, you can complement Buratino's cap with curls of hair. To do this, cut a strip of colored paper the right size. They cut it into small vertical strips, which are twisted into curls. The hair blank is glued to the inside of the cap.
How to make a golden key Pinocchio

After the glue has completely dried, paint the key with spray paint. Let the workpiece dry, thread the lace through the hole in the key.
Advice! To add shine to the key, wrap the cardboard blank with yellow foil.
Preparation of the nose for the Pinocchio costume
In addition to the suit, Pinocchio must have a long nose. How to make it from scrap materials?
Work progress
1. Draw a blank for the future nose on beige cardboard. To do this, draw a small circle, the diameter of which will be equal to the length of the nose. Cut out the workpiece.
2. Roll the cardboard into a cone shape and glue it vertically.
3. We make holes for the elastic band and thread an elastic thin ribbon. It will securely hold Pinocchio's nose during the performance.
DIY New Year's costume "Pinocchio" for a boy
After making all the small details, we proceed to sewing the suit itself. It will be a T-shirt and shorts. A T-shirt for a hero should be loose.
Sewing a T-shirt for Pinocchio
For work you will need basic materials:
Fabric in red, blue or green;
Threads to match;
Pattern;
Scissors.
Step No. 1 Constructing a pattern and cutting out a T-shirt
You can use any pattern of a suitable size as a basis. We transfer it to paper and cut it out along the contour of the part. The pattern will consist of a back, front and sleeves. We place the blanks on the fabric and cut out the details of the future costume.
Step #2 Assembling the T-shirt
We combine the front and back of the workpiece with the right side inward, sew the shoulder and side seams. We sew in the sleeves and edge the neckline with bias tape, leaving room for the fastener. We bend the bottom of the product and sleeves, lay a line. The T-shirt for the suit is ready, don’t forget to sew a large white button on the front.
Sewing a collar
To prevent the fairy-tale hero's T-shirt from looking too boring, it is complemented with a white elegant collar with ties.
Materials:
White fabric;
Braid for ties;
Pattern.
First, make a paper pattern for the collar. To do this, draw a circle on cardboard, and draw a smaller circle inside it, having previously measured the circumference of the child’s neck. Cut the circles radially to the center.
Transfer the pattern piece onto white fabric, cut out and machine-process all the sections. Braid for ties is sewn to the smaller part of the collar. A do-it-yourself elegant collar for a boy’s Pinocchio costume is ready.
How to sew shorts for a suit
To make shorts, you can take fabric of black, brown, blue or green. Satin or corduroy fabric will look good.
We prepare a paper pattern-base and transfer it to the fabric. We sew the shorts along the side and crotch seams.
The upper edge of the product is folded 2.5 cm and stitched, leaving a little unstitched space. Measure the circumference of the child’s abdomen and cut the elastic to the desired length. Insert the elastic into the shorts and stitch the hem.
Fold the bottom edge of the trouser legs 2 cm and stitch. We turn the product inside out, cut off all the threads and you can try on a hand-sewn Pinocchio suit for a boy.
By using your imagination, you can use any materials. For example, a cap for a hero can not only be sewn, but also knitted from cotton yarn or cut out of cardboard. The finished product is decorated with tinsel or rain. Remains of light yarn or an old wig are suitable for making Pinocchio curls. It will help to give the image a harmonious look holiday makeup. There must be a blush on Pinocchio's cheeks. Think through the details of the costume and don't be afraid to experiment.

Methodological development “Children and Parents Club “Golden Key” Theatrical activities are one of the types of activities that can add variety to a child’s life and give him joy. Theater.
Now I will tell you how you can create a golden key with your own golden hands :)
How not to be afraid to create large objects and not be constrained by the remaining space on the shelves...
About how not to be afraid of experiments and use anything in your works!
I will go through the works already created a little, describing the process of their creation.
And also, you will see how you can transform old “big” keys.
Option 1 - creating a key inside and out, of any size.
The first thing you need to do is sketch out your idea. Reflect the shape and thickness on the sheet.
It is advisable to make an image at a scale of 1:100 or 1:50, this will make it easier to recreate the object.
Analyze your drawing in detail, indicate overall dimensions, dimensions of parts,
diameter of the rod (tube) and be sure to consider the thickness of the key.
(I created my keys from 25 to 45 cm long)
If you find an old key and want to transform it (Option 2),
then you need to start from the finished form.
Put it on a piece of paper and trace it, so you can do a lot
different options and find the right one.
Both options will require manufacturing individual elements according to your sketches.
Here you need to apply all your skills :)
It can be paper, foam board, polystyrene foam, construction foam, household waste,
office, base made of fabric with synthetic padding, etc.
As usual, I use foam board*
(*you can read what it is and what it is eaten with in the previous topic).
In the 2nd version we attach the finished elements to our base with hot glue. Difficulties may arise due to the fact that the glue will cool quickly on the metal.
If you are making a key using the 1st option, then the next step is creating a rod (tube).
It could be a piece of plastic tube, a felt-tip pen, a branch...
I rolled tubes from a regular A4 sheet for printing, using the entire format.
This gives strength and you can adjust the desired diameter.
To be on the safe side, you can stuff something inside.
This same tube will be the basis for our entire key.
We will attach the “head” and “beard” (top and bottom parts) to it.
A beard can be created in different ways:
The first example is made from paper/cardboard. Remember how to glue a paper cube? Great, it's not much more complicated :)
- The second example is made from foam board.
There can be many more of your ideas :)
Remember that in the end you will cover your part with paint and you can make a relief there,
Therefore, when creating a goatee, the main thing is to think about the shape.
The top part of the key is perhaps the most difficult to create.
The first example is from laces (process). Not a very good choice :)
It is very difficult to fix the laces, but as grooves on the stem this is what you need!
- The second example is made of paper with hot glue decoration. It's also not easy...
- The third option is made of foam board.
None of the results satisfied the perfectionist in me :)
I believe that you can find a more suitable option than these, I'm waiting for suggestions :)
Hot glue can be used not only for fastening, but also for decoration.
They can create volumes, hide imperfections and draw patterns.
You can decorate your key as you wish. These can be rings along the diameter, grooves, patterns, rhinestones and even inscriptions!
There are three main types of metallic paints. Gold, silver and copper. You will need two paints - main color + black.
First we cover the object with the main color.
Then we mix the main paint with black and paint the recesses with this color.
This is called the "aging effect".
The principle is simple: “what is deeper is darker, what is convex is lighter.”
After this, we once again go over the raised areas with a clean primary color.

Writer Alexei Tolstoy wrote about the adventures of a brave, mischievous boy. This fairy tale was read by people who had already become adults when they were still children. To make today's boys and girls fall in love with it, tell them briefly what the story is about. Sew costumes for them, act out a performance with them based on this work.
Summary of “The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio”
Toddlers have a hard time understanding long stories, so tell them the story in your own words.
It all started in the Mediterranean. The organ grinder Carlo lived here. One day his friend Giuseppe came to him and brought him a log. A friend said that Carlo was all alone, there was no one to help the old man, and from a log he could make himself a son.
The organ grinder got to work, and soon the log took on the shape of a boy. But when Carlo wanted to shorten his long nose, the workpiece screamed, and he had to leave his facial features that way.
When the organ grinder went to buy clothes for the wooden child, he at that time met the cricket, but managed to quarrel with him. The wise inhabitant of the closet told Pinocchio that behind the painted hearth there was a secret door that could be opened with a golden key.
But on the way there, the mischievous man stopped at a puppet theater to watch a performance. During the performance, he stands up for the unjustly offended character and disrupts the performance.
The owner of the puppet theater Karabas Barabas wanted to punish Buratino, burn him like a log. However, the boy admits that it is impossible to burn it, since he once saw a fireplace, but only poked a hole in it with his nose.
Karabas Barabas perked up, it became clear that he knew the secret of the golden key. Having sent Pinocchio home, the owner of the puppet theater even gave him money so that he and his father would not die of hunger. Karabas Barabas told them not to leave the closet.
When everyone left, the owner of the puppet theater called his friend Duremar, told him where the secret door was, and the key was hidden with the turtle Tortilla.
But this does not end the summary of The Golden Key, or the adventures of Pinocchio. As a result, the wise Tortilla gave the key to the good Pinocchio. At the end of the fairy tale, he and his friends from the puppet theater open a secret door.
But on the way to success, the little mischief-maker had to show his ingenuity and courage. This is the only way he was able to escape from the clutches of the cunning fox Alice and the cat Basilio. Pinocchio helped Malvina, Artemon and Pierrot escape from Karabas Barabas and Duremar.
The fairy tale “The Golden Key” ends positively. A new puppet theater was waiting for the friends behind the door, in which they would now perform.
After you have introduced the children to summary fairy tales “The Golden Key or the Adventures of Pinocchio”, you can act out scenes with the participation of these characters. Now the guys will know who has what character, which representative of the fairy-tale puppet theater looks like.
Sew costumes in which the kids can have fun at a matinee or at a home party.
How to sew a Pinocchio costume with your own hands?
Of course, one of the main details of his outfit is the cap. To sew such a hat you will need:
- fabric red and white(you can take a striped canvas);
- scissors;
- threads;
- pompom tassel.
Here, the Pinocchio cap is made for a child whose head volume is 50 cm. As you can see, this cone will need to be attached to the fabric, cut out with seam allowances, and the opposite edges of the triangle connected to form a cap.
It's good if you have white fabric with red stripes. If you don’t have one, then you need to sew red ribbons on a white fabric or white ones on a red one.
Fold the cap under at the bottom, leaving enough space to then insert the elastic. Then the hat will not come off the child’s head. Make a fabric tassel or a white or red pom-pom from yarn and sew it onto the end of the hat.
Our hero's spacious jacket looks like a wide T-shirt. To make the Pinocchio costume further, copy the presented pattern. You can increase or decrease as required.
You can do it easier by taking a child’s T-shirt that is still too big for him and making a pattern based on this item.
If the size of the collar cutout of the jacket is sufficient for the child to put it on over his head without difficulty, then do not make a fastener. In this case, you will need to cut out one whole piece for the front and back. If the neckline of the T-shirt makes it difficult to dress, then you need to cut out two parts of the back, and then make a fastener or tie between them.
Sew the details, sew the sleeves into the armholes. Process the neck and bottom of the product. The pattern will also help you sew shorts.
You need to remake this pattern and cut out 2 parts. Now sew the crotch seams, then the side seams. Hem the bottom of the product, hem it up to insert an elastic band here.
Cut out a collar from white fabric and sew it onto the top of the jacket. Here's how to make a Pinocchio costume with your own hands. White knee socks, shoes or slippers will complete the look.
All that remains is to make a golden key.
For this you will need:
- cardboard;
- glue;
- gold foil or gold paint with a brush;
- scotch;
- scissors.
When the glue dries, you will need to paint the key with gold paint or wrap it in gold foil, securing it with tape.
The hero's clothes are ready, Malvina's costume needs to be made. Any girl will want to play her role. Prepare everything you need and get started.
Malvina's costume from the fairy tale “The Golden Key”
If this pattern works for your daughter, niece or granddaughter, use it. You can increase or decrease the provided template by one size, add or decrease a little in the center or on the sides. Here are the details of this Malvina dress:
- in front of the top of the dress - one piece;
- back - 2 parts;
- sleeves - 2 pieces;
- collar - 4 parts;
- flounces for a skirt.
- First you need to make recesses, pasting them according to the indicated marks on the front and back. Sew the 2 back pieces together, leaving a small space at the top unsewn so you can then sew in a zipper or sew on a button with an eyelet.
- Sew the front and back bodice pieces on the sides. Sew in the sewn sleeves.
- In place of the sleeves, indicated by a dotted line on the pattern, you must first sew in a soft elastic band, stretching it slightly. Then the cuffs will be fluffy.
- Stitch the collar pieces together and sew them onto the neckline.
- Gather your skirt. To do this, you need to cut out several rectangles of different sizes. They are collected on a thread from above. Now place these shuttlecocks one on top of the other so that the largest is at the bottom and the smallest is at the top.
You can do it differently - first sew a flared skirt, and sew flounces of the same width onto it.
Here's how to sew Malvina's costume using a different pattern.
Another detail of this heroine’s clothing is pantaloons. The pattern below will help you create them.
As you can see, you need to baste the pants, make drawstrings, into which elastic bands are then threaded and secured. If you managed to buy a blue wig, when Malvina's costume will be complemented with this item. If this did not work out, then it is enough to tie a large bow or a silk scarf of the same color on the girl’s head, and the image will be complete.
All that remains is to put on the girl beautiful shoes and tights, and Malvina’s costume is ready.
How to sew a Pierrot costume?
This is another fairy tale character.
- You can very quickly make a costume for Pierrot. For this you will need a large white shirt. The cuts on the sleeves need to be continued, and lush cuffs should be sewn at the bottom. The bottom of the pants must be decorated in the same way.
- Attach the cardboard circles to the fabric, cut out the same circles from it, but with a margin to tuck the edges under the cardboard, then sew these buttons onto Pierrot’s robe.
- Make a cap for it from whatman paper, rolling it into a cone. All that remains is to apply black and white makeup to your face to complete the look.
- See how to make flounces to trim this character's costume. To do this, cut a strip of fabric 100–150 cm long and 10–15 cm wide. If it is lace or knitted fabric, whose edges do not “crumble”, then there is no need to trim them. If the fabric is different, in this case it is necessary to hem them.
- Now draw two parallel lines with a long ruler. Sew with a thread and a needle, first along one and then along the other markings. Tighten the thread and tie in knots.
The next Pierrot costume for the fairy tale “The Golden Key, or the Adventures of Pinocchio” is also easy to make. A spacious shirt is sewn from white silky fabric with long sleeves. You need to attach a collar to it.
To do this, cut out two large circles of different sizes from transparent fabric. Place the small one on the large one and gather it onto a thread. Top this element with knitted tape. Sew Pierrot's collar onto the neck of his shirt.
Here is the shirt pattern.
The pants are also roomy. You can take the boy's trousers as a basis, increasing the pattern. Make one pant leg white, the other black. An elastic band is inserted into the belt, black circles are sewn onto the light part of the trousers and onto the shirt.
Sew on pompoms as trim. The following photo tip will help you make them.
As you can see, filler is placed in the center of the fabric circle. Then the fabric along the edge is gathered onto a thread, tightened, and secured.
Here's how to make a Pierrot costume.
Crafts based on the fairy tale Golden Key
Do interesting creativity with your children. If you are knitting a cardigan or sweater for a child, add key-shaped trim to the edges of the product or on the cuffs of the sleeves.
Based on the presented diagram, knit with threads of the same color along the cells that are drawn here in black. To make the keys clearly visible, make them from darker yarn, and the background will be light.
The same pattern will come in handy if you embroider. Then make the keys with gold threads and make the background white.
Crafts based on the fairy tale “The Golden Key” using paper are very interesting.
As you can see, first you need to roll the cut out rectangles of paper into a tube and fix this figure in this position with glue.
After this, the facial features of the characters are drawn with a marker. For Pinocchio you need to make a nose and a key from yellow paper. Hair is also cut out of it, and the cap is made of white and red stripes.
Malvina's dress and hair are made of blue colored paper, and the bow is made of pink. Pierrot's costume here is light and complemented with elements made of colored paper. Appropriate sad makeup will complement the image of a lover.
Here are some other masterpieces paper plastic can make. The images of the dolls turn out to be very realistic.
The trimming technique will also allow you to make a wonderful craft based on the fairy tale “The Adventures of Pinocchio.”
- To do this, you need to glue small paper trims onto a cardboard base, making the leaves of the water lily from green elements, and the flowers of this plant from white and yellow.
- For Pinocchio you will need paper squares of yellow, red, blue, and white.
- This craft looks great on blue cardboard. If your base is white, then you first need to paint it with blue paint or glue paper of that color.
- a box of chocolates, like Rafaella;
- cardboard;
- paint;
- scissors;
- stationery knife.
Don't forget to make the Turtle Tortilla. By the way, if you were asked to make a costume for this character for kindergarten, make a shell from a disposable baking dish. Attach tape and Velcro to it so you can wear it like a backpack.
You can make a shell by taking:
- cardboard;
- scissors;
- remnants of fabric;
- green canvas;
- green wide braid.
You need to sew dark green ribbons onto the green fabric in advance to get the desired pattern on the shell.
Sew 2 wide ribbons so that you can put on the shell like a backpack.
You can make a Tortilla turtle out of sand, like other characters in this fairy tale, and perform the play right on the beach.
