Toddler needs to dress as a flower....

My little niece has to dress as a flower at nursery in a few weeks, and I have been given the task of sorting the outfit! I'm thinking green tights and a green t shirt, and then something for her head so the petals go round her face. I don't mind buying something and posting it over (they live in Spain), or making something if there's nothing available. I'd rather buy if it's not too expensive. Anyone got any ideas?! Thank you!

  • I have had a quick search on line and can't find anything specifically a flower (unfortunately it comes up with flower fairies, fairy princesses and in the night garden)

    I would suggest carry on as you have with the green clothes, then go to a supermarket and buy an alice band and then pop to Hobby Craft and buy some foam flowers and stick them on the alice band

    "Disfrases" for children are so popular in Spain, kits are commonly available in what are still known as "Hundred Peseta" shops. (But maybe the parents couldn't find the right design which is why you've ended up with the job OP?).

    Why not ask Mooloo? I bet she could make you a 'daisy-face' and give you some ideas on prettying up the rest of your niece's outfit. :)

    Ah, I'll tell my sister that *Robin*, thank you. Yes, C_P, that was my plan, kind of!!!! I searched online and couldn't find anything either.

    Annoyingly they had EXACTLY the right thing in Home Bargains at Easter. I'm going to pop to town in a bit and see what I can find.
    Thanks for your responses!

    Don't know if you can buy them on ebay but what about those daffodil heads that you see people wear at welsh rugby matches?
