We used some extra foam batting that we had lying around from a previous DIY, but if you don’t have foam you could create the same effect with long rolls of paper. Spray paint the foam green and then cut it into long rectangular strips. Grab an old bed pillow, then cut out a piece of orange fabric that is large enough to wrap around the pillow. (If you have an orange pillow case, that will work too.) Wrap the pillow like a present and secure the fabric with hot glue. Use the yarn to section off the two bottom corners of the pillow to turn them into a fish tail. Use white fabric paint to add some scalloped detailing (scales) to your piece of fish. Fringe some green paper and roll it into a cylindrical shape. Tie the shower loofah onto a headband and then glue the green fringe to the backside. Real wasabi might be way too hot for you, but this wasabi hat is just hot enough. Time to assemble your sushi roll! Dress in all white (you are the rice!). Hold the pillow to your back as a friend helps wrap you in black fabric.

Check out that shrimp tail. Sushi with some sushi — so meta. For the salmon sushi we chose a dark orange fabric for the pillow and left it as a rectangle to mock the salmon slice.

Our Beauty Stylist, Misty, gave Ashley fun mini buns that cascaded into a ponytail at the nape of her neck. Someone’s got to be the nigiri! Grab a salmon-colored dress from the thrift store and add some white lines to represent the salmon fat. Lay on top of a white body pillow, ’cause it’s your rice (duh)! Salmon nigiri and mini salmon nigiri. Sushi without soy sauce is a sin. So of course you need a friend to play this role! Grab some yellow felt and trace and cut out the letters for soy sauce. We didn’t want to ruin this black dress, so we used fashion tape to adhere the letters, but feel free to hot glue them onto the dress if you want.

Top off the outfit with a bright red wig. Gang’s all here — time to plate them up.

(2 ½ yards) ½” thick sheet foam Felt in various colors Hot glue gun & glue sticks 5” pearl mandarin orange balloons Cut 2 circles out of the cardboard that will be wide enough to fit your child’s torso. If you’d like them to be able to sit down, make sure the circle is not longer than their shoulders to their hips. Wrap the cardboard circles with white fabric and hot glue in place.

Trim the width of the foam sheet to 2’. Wrap in the black vinyl fabric and hot glue in place. Hot glue the foam around the edge of the circles. Circles should be about 1” inside the edge of the foam. Cut a hole in the center of the foam large enough for your child’s head. Cut a hole on the opposite side of the foam large enough for their torso. Have them try on the costume, mark where their arms are. Remove the costume and cut out holes for the arms. Place the roll in a large cardboard box or on a plastic dropcloth. Cover the white fabric on one side with spray adhesive. Drop the foam peanuts on top and let set for 5 minutes. Shake off the excess peanuts. Repeat for a second layer of peanuts, then flip the roll over and repeat on that side. Cut slices of remaining foam into jellybean-like shapes. To make the avocado, layer dark green on medium green on light green felt and hot glue together. Wrap around a foam piece, glue in place, and trim excess. To make the fish pieces, draw a series of “U” or “V” shapes on orange felt.
