Eco costumes for carnival: how to make a piece of Lego
Perhaps it is the most popular costume of the moment. Just make holes, cutting circles with a pair of scissors, at the neck and arms in a large recovered cardboard box, possibly rectangular.
Then put 6 or 4 glasses, depending on the desired size for the costume, to make a smaller or larger piece of lego, gluing them with vinavil or similar glue. Color everything in yellow, green or blue.
Once dry, it can also be pulled open, sealing it with transparent tape on the back. To complete the work the ideal would be to put on the head a hat of the same color chosen for the piece of lego.
