I love Chipotle so this year, I decided to make my own burrito costume. I stayed up until 1:00 a.m. to finish it. I love making my own costume but it's very time consuming. Regardless, I was able to pull it off. Not my favorite creation so far so this will do. I won the "Best Individual Costume" contest at work today!!! Just in case you want to make the same costume next year, I hope you find this tutorial helpful.
For the burrito: This part is very similar to the Starbucks costume we made last year
- 1" project foam: Cut to your desired size and hand-stitch 2 ends together (I used 1 yard)
- Metallic shiny silver fabric (I used 1.5 yard). Wrap the fabric around the tube using heat tape. This kind of tape is really sticky and has strong hold
- Sew 2 shoulder straps to keep the burrito from falling down
For the toppings:
- 2 yards of wool felt fabric in the color natural: Pretend like you're making a body pillow case. Twist the pillow case twice and sew 2 ends together. This doesn't have to be perfect. You can adjust the shape of it once you have it on
- Use green felt fabric sheet for lettuce and red felt for tomatoes
- Use brown yarn for beans
- Use crinkle cut paper for cheese
- Pile everything on top of the wrapper (I used Gorilla super glue)
