Okay, we've covered why the kids love train conductors. But what happens when you're all grown up and you're still dreaming about honking that horn and taking your very own engine around mountains and through amazing landscapes. Dress up as a train engineer anyway! Because everyone knows that this costume is still quite charming on a full-blown adult. In fact, we have a brand new Made by Us engineer costume! The vertical grey and white striped overalls are pretty sharp. The overalls are paired with a denim-colored blue shirt, a red bandana, and the classic flat-topped engineer hat. Just because you're fully-grown, doesn't mean you should have to give up those adventurous train-dreams. Don't forget to complete their ensemble with those all-important fancy dress accessories to put the final touches to their transformation. Add some sparkle with pendants and jewellery along with props to make their fantasies come true. I knew I wanted the DIY Thomas the Train costume to be 3D and I had some boxes sitting around so I figured that was the perfect place to start. I grabbed a few other things from Michaels, got a toy Thomas from the play basket for reference and got to work.
