Monster AG Costume: Make Sulley disguise for men and babies
Sulley, or James P. Sullivan, is a hairy giant with blue fur and purple circular spots. The monster works with his friend Mike in the company “Monster AG”, an important energy supplier in the monster universe. The two friends are busy every day scaring children away and collecting the energy that is released in the process.
The sweet monster is ideal for a carnival costume for men. For this you need felt in azure blue and purple. You can optionally just buy a pair of blue pants and a blue t-shirt and put them on. You can make the horns out of modeling clay and attach them to the hood with a glue gun.
Monster AG costume: Make a Mike T-shirt
Mike, an eyeball on two legs, is Sulley's best friend and business partner. In contrast to him, he is more down-to-earth and pragmatic. When the two monsters accidentally bring a little girl, Boo, into their universe, their adventure begins.
Boys in particular are fascinated by the film character and like to dress up as Mike. We'll explain to you how you can make a Monster AG costume. All you need is a t-shirt or blouse, felt fabric in black, white, blue and fabric glue. First, make the eye by cutting out three circles of different sizes: a large white circle, a medium-sized blue circle, and a small black circle. Also cut out a very small rhombus from the white felt. Glue the three circles together and then attach the white rhombus to the black circle. Place the eye in the middle of the blouse. Draw the monster mouth with sharp teeth on paper and cut out the drawing. Use it as a template and make the mouth out of black and white felt. Attach the mouth diagonally to the bottom of the blouse. The last thing you need to do is add an eyebrow above the eye. Put green leggings and the finished Mike blouse on the child and the carnival can begin!
Monster AG costume for women: Celia, Mike's girlfriend
Celia is a monster woman with one eye who has lots of snakes for hair. She wears a grift green sequin dress and has a purple body. Celia is Mike's girlfriend and he is very much in love with her. As a sign of his love, he books a table for them both in the best restaurant in town. That's exactly where Mike and Sulley meet the little girl Boo for the first time.
For a Celia costume you need the following materials: a purple blouse, matching purple leggings, a bright green, knee-length, sleeveless dress and the matching headdress. You can make the snakes either from socks or old bed linen.

Putting together your Monster AG costume is super easy. So simple that it's perfect as a last minute disguise for adults too.
Monster Uni Costumes: Ms. Squibbles
In the second film “The Monster University”, a prequel to Monster AG, the action takes place approximately 20 years earlier. Mike and Sulley are students and meet at university. The couple also makes other new acquaintances, for example with Scott Squibbles and his mother Mrs. Squibbles.

Monster AG - put together inspired family costumes for carnival
Families with small children have great fun during the carnival. The children are very happy when their parents also dress up appropriately for the carnival. Then the Festival of Fools will be twice as much fun. Our tip: Don't invest in expensive costumes for the whole family. It's just not worth it since the kids won't be able to wear them next year anyway. If you make the costumes yourself instead, you will have to expect a little more effort. But it pays off in the end because the results will definitely delight you. And homemade costumes also have another advantage: you can reuse the fabrics for other craft projects. Or organize a fun role play at home with the little ones. If you are planning a children's birthday party soon, you can choose a monster theme and use the costumes again.
Transform your old office clothes into a cute costume. Although the costumes are only color-matched to the film characters, Mike, Sulley and Boo are actually immediately recognizable. A cool idea for anyone who is invited to a carnival party after work and doesn't have time to change at home.
If you have enough time to change, then it can be a little crazier. Organize a photo shoot with the children and decorate the house accordingly. In the photo gallery you will find numerous inspiring examples of monster costumes for the whole family. Let yourself be inspired and surprise your partner and children with homemade costumes.
