Hey guys it's Stephen and Ellie the Chihuahua! We upload new videos every Sunday on
the Relax My Dog YouTube channel and today we're gonna be making Ellie a
witch outfit for Halloween, she's gonna be a little witch! If you'd like to try
this tutorial then you're gonna need the following items some black fabric, black
lace, black elastic, adhesive glittery stickers, some black card, a bowl, scissors,
a pen, a glue gun, and some devil horns! Well actually, uh, they're just for me!
You're going to need the assistance of a little dog, Ellie the Chihuahua is
perfect. The black cloth that I've got is kind of elasticated which is great
because it's gonna give Ellie some room to move and to breathe, I'm gonna put it
around Ellie just so I've got a rough idea of the size I need to cut this
fabric to, I'm going to allow extra room around her neck and I want the fabric to
kind of end where her tail is, okay so I've kind of got a good idea of where I
need to cut it now, thank you! I'm just gonna cut the fabric
down, it doesn't matter if this is a little bit ripped or not 100% straight
because you know it's a witch and I don't think witches are going to be on
the cover of Vogue anytime soon! I've cut my fabric down to size gonna test that
on Ellie to make sure it's about right, ooh and that looks perfect! Now I'm gonna
get those adhesive stickers, stick them on the fabric in areas that are going to
cover her back and her sides
Great we've got a nice even coverage of stickers there,
that's the cape done! The next stage is to make her witches hat and we're going
to use the black card, this is probably the most difficult element of this whole
look, using the small bowl we're just gonna trace the outline of a circle and
cut that circle out. Ah, now we've got our circle you want to bend the card to find
the middle point which is about here, give it a little pinch and from that
point take your scissors and go and cut straight into the middle
pinch, so we've got a little gap there now, from this we're gonna overlap the card
and give it a twist, we made a little cone there got this excess card on the
top I'm just gonna cut that away because we don't need it. We have the beginning
now of our witches hats which is perfect! Here comes the fun part, we're
gonna get our glue gun which is very hot so be very careful and we're just
gonna glue one side of the card, fold it into that cone shape and stick it down
where we've glued, and it's done, that easy! Using that black elastic we've got,
this is just gonna go around her neck so we can hold the cone in place, that size
will be perfect for Ellie! Apply small amount of glue either side of the inside
of the cone, you take that elastic and you're just gonna stick it into the glue,
now we've got the perfect party hat! To decorate this a little bit more, I'm
gonna use that black lace that I've got, gonna apply some of the glue just to the
front of the cone here and then we can attach this small bit of felt to the
cone to give it a bit more detail, and there we have it! A nice little witch's
hat! And we're gonna put this on Ellie - "Ellie!"
- Should we put your cape on? The great thing about having this stretchy fabric
is you can just tie it into a bow at the front, doesn't that look great! I'm just
gonna put a hat on she's not gonna like this
Oh there we go! And that's it, that's the complete
look, Ellie's witches outfit, you look amazing!
it's worth just saying, you want to make sure that you're supervising your dog at
all times if you're going to make this outfit for it, because there's a lot of
pieces that she could rip off and eat, but it is a fantastic little outfit for
her, super personalised and she looks adorable! If you enjoyed this video give
