Alvin from the popular cartoon series “Alvin and the Chipmunks” is a fun costume you can make for adults and children alike. If you have two other friends, you can have them go as Theodore and Simon, too. Make an Alvin costume to pay homage to the lead chipmunk.

Things You Will Need
Draw a large block lettered “A” onto your yellow felt sheet with your fabric marker, making the letter wide and tall enough to cover the front of your shirt. Use a ruler to make sure you get the edges straight, then cut out your “A” when done.
Set your iron on medium heat and let it heat up for five minutes. Iron your red shirt and spray a layer of starch over the front, then iron the front one more time so that it is stiff and wrinkle-free.
Apply fabric glue to one side of your felt “A,” hold the “A” glue-side down over the front of your shirt and center it, then press it down on the shirt. Press down on the top part of the “A” with your iron and move it down over your felt “A” for three minutes. Let the fabric glue cool and dry for ten minutes.
Put on your Alvin shirt with your red cap and black pants. Rub black or dark brown face paint all over your nose.
