HERE IS HOW TO MAKE AN EASY DIY DESPICABLE ME MINION COSTUME:
WHAT ARE THE MATERIALS NEEDED FOR THIS DIY DESPICABLE ME MINION COSTUME?
All you’ll need to put this minion costume together is:
- Yellow Top
- Jean Overalls
- Black Headband
- Black Gloves
- Black Shoes
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE MATERIALS?
So, for this DIY costume, I pretty much had everything I needed except the gloves which I just picked up from the dollar store. You can find these super basic outfit pieces from most clothing stores, already in your closet or potentially from thrifting. The mason jar lids I had at home already and I printed the minion eyes and logo from my printer as well.
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
Generally, I never use a lot of equipment to complete my DIY projects but some supplies that I always use are scissors, tape and a glue gun.
CAN I SUB ANYTHING OUT?
Oh, you absolutely can substitute what you want from this costume. I make these DIYs to simply get the creativity going however if something is not available to you or you’d like to tailor the costume to use something that you already have, I highly encourage it!
I choose to glue my minion eyes to my headband but you can move this elsewhere or maybe use a different hair accessory or hat to glue them onto.
DOES THIS COSTUME LAST TO USE FOR THE FOLLOWING YEARS?
Oh, this costume can absolutely last you to use it again on another Halloween! This costume is super easy to put together and you can save your minion logo, and mason jar minion eyes! If you do end up messing up your costume by accident the night you wear it, you can always just recreate it again!
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE?
Making this minion costume took me under an hour to put together. The only thing that took me a little bit longer is that I cut the logo very precisely and it had a lot of tight corners so I wanted to be careful. I also curled my hair and put makeup on but honestly, if you’re just putting the costume together, it should take you about 15-20 minutes.
INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS COSTUME?
There really isn’t much I can say about the inspiration behind this costume. The latest minion movie came out over the summer and I thought wait a minute! I have everything to make this minion costume myself at home so I did and it ended up being super cute put together!
You can just dress up by yourself, as a couples costume, a friends group or even a family costume.
ANY OTHER NOTES?
No other notes for this one! Hope that you all look super cute in this.
STEPS TO DO THIS DIY DESPICABLE ME MINION COSTUME:
Step 1: On your computer, print out the Minions/Gru’s Lab Logo and Minion Eyes to cut out.
Step 2: Cut the minions logo to tape on your outfit and cut the circle minion eyes to place in the mason jar lids.
Step 3: Put on your yellow shirt, overalls, black gloves and black shoes then place on your logo either with strong tape on your chest or top of your stomach.
Step 4: Finish it off with your minion eyes headband and have a great night!
