Fun Homemade Ice Cream Cone Costume with Jimmies!

This is what you will need to make your fun homemade Ice Cream Cone costume with Jimmies:

•  white cotton sheet or fabric (thrift store, Walmart, fabric store)
•  smaller piece of colored fabric (use old colored t-shirts, scrap packs from a fabric store, or small sections from fabric store rolls)
• white thread
• tan skirt (or sew your own, I bought mine online from forever21 for like 7 bucks)
• brown paint
• electrical wire (Homedepot, Lowes)
• stuffing cotton (I used the inside of old pillows)
• ruler
• marker
• brownish craft or acrylic paint

To make the cone top section:

•  Cut strips of white fabric as long as you can lengthwise and around 14 inches wide (depending on how big you want the swirls)
•  Fold your strips of fabric in half
•  Sew (preferably with a sewing machine) along the edge
•  Turn strip inside out once it is sewn and slide electrical cord through the long fabric sleeve you just sewd
•  stuff entire section with stuffing cotton
•  sew ends together and tapper at the ends

Making the jimmies:

•  cut colored fabric into 2.25″ by 8ish” strips
•  roll the sections
•  sew them onto the long white top you just made

Putting it on:

•  wrap the strip all the way around you
•  use a scrap piece of white fabric to side the bottom two swirls together so you don’t unravel
•  as an option you can ask someone to tie it in other sections to make sure it stays together

 Making the waffle cone shirt:

•  take a ruler and mark diagonal lines in one direction with a marker across the shirt
•  switch diagonal and make the same marks
•  paint over lines with brown craft or acrylic paint
