Materials:
• 27 x 30 inch piece of fabric cloth
• Fabric glue
• Scissors
• Self-adhesive velcro dots
• Gross-grain ribbon

Lay the fabric on a flat surface together with the gross-grain ribbon (1 and ½ inch from one of the shorter edges).

Put fabric glue for about half an inch below the gross-grain ribbon, then fold over the upper part of the fabric and seal.

Gather the fabric and put a fabric glue at the openings to secure each end. If the ribbon is too long for your kid, trim it using the scissors.

Attach the velcro dot on the end of each side of the ribbon. Voila! The cape is now ready!

Using a glue, arrange the design the way your kid prefers it.

Using the scissors, carefully create a hole on the right and left edges of the mask that would fit the .25 inch metal eyelet kit.

First, cut a slit all the way down on one side of a toilet paper roll. You can also cut some shapes and designs that you would like to put in your cuffs. (You can also use craft felt, you just need to cut a rectangular shape that would fit with the size of your child’s wrist)

Then, paint your pieces. Make sure that you will use different colors with your shape to make sure that they will pop! (You can also use color papers instead of paint)

When the paint is already dry. You can now glue your desired shapes to your cuffs! Then punch a few holes on the side of your cuff’s openings. Lace them up by putting a yarn.
