You will need:
• A white onesie or t-shirt that fits your dog
• Packing peanuts
• Glue gun and hot glue sticks
• Pieces of dark green or black lycra fabric, vinyl or plastic
• Colored felt in dark pink, pale pink, and green
Step 1
Glue Styrofoam packing peanuts to the onesie to make the rice.
Step 2
On top of your Styrofoam peanut “rice”, glue overlapping layers of colored felt to make the fish and vegetables.
Step 3
Wait for your masterpiece to dry. Once cool, let your dog wear their new costume and wrap a strip of stretchy black fabric around the middle to complete the look.
