This is so cute! can you do more DIY Halloween costumes like this. Because a lot of diy costumes aren't the warmest and it tends to get cold where i'm from. And costumes like this will keep me warm. Thanks

[@jadejade9382]

Thank you so much I've been wanting to be totoro for Halloween for and ever but I could never find a costume thanks

[@ToriTenacious]

I was legit struggling with what to be for Halloween at work, and I remembered I saw this video awhile ago and Totoro I shall be! I'm not crafty but thank god I work at a craft store. I have everything in this video (excluding the jacket) right at my disposal lol this should be fun

[@EvaChung]

Oo wow it must be so much fun working at a craft store! I can't even imagine the crazy crafts people must come in to buy materials for!

[@ChasnStar]

OMG! love it! (totoro as well!)

[@kateye9219]

THANK YOU SO SO SOOOO MUCH MY TOTORO COSTUME WAS ORDERED FROM JAPAN BUT THERE WAS A POSTPONE AND IT WONT ARRIVE UNTIL A WEEK AFTER AND I WAS REALLY SAD AND THEN I FOUDN THIS YAYYAYYY

[@EvaChung]

Kate Ye The feeeels, I hate it when things don't come in time. I'm glad this came in handy! :)

[@misaki52008]

So cute

[@lucasyoung9594]

Nice work!! Did the ears always stay up? Or did they start to drop down after awhile. I was thinking to keep it standing up on end, I might need to make some wire-style headband?!

[@EvaChung]

They stay up if i hold the hood up, but if it's loose, it tends to flop. A headband would work!

[@lucasyoung9594]

Awesome! Thank you! AAAAAND actually I went searching around for different solutions at the time that I posted this. I found another youtuber that gave me a great idea as well. Basically, you get some wire (I used a metal hanger and cut it up) and cut it to be as long as the ears and you gut out circular pieces of cardboard. Then you take cardboard and hot glue one end of the wires to that cardboard, so that it's like a pole sticking up, and the cardboard is the base. I actually used two pieces of cardboard for one wire, two glued together, then a hole punctured in the top one for the wire, then hot glued. THEN I stuck the wire in the ear, and hot glued the cardboard to the hoodie. It worked very well!

[@strawberriespls]

aah this is too cute Eva!

[@susivasquez5071]

So cute loved the movie

[@EvaChung]

susi Vasquez LOL Every time Totoro made it's creepy smile

[@sarahahnkim]

[@seckshayundies]

where can we get the template for his fur bellylines and his ears? cute tutorial btw! (:

[@EvaChung]

I actually just blew up an image of Totoro and traced it off my laptop screen for the belly lines, haha! It took a little trial an error to get the right size. As for the ears, I just sketched it out based off a picture. Sorry!

[@bbyrampage]

I love Totoro

[@EvaChung]

same

[@trevorsalgado3918]

I'm not very good at sewing for cosplay,so the way you did it would be way easier!

[@EvaChung]

+Emily Andrea Yeah.. I'm not very good at sewing either. I feel your pain LOL

[@trevorsalgado3918]

it's just that I'm too lazy XD

[@ToriRao]

I liked this costume tutorial :)

[@barbie4416]

I'm going to make it to, Wil it look cute without whispers

[@EvaChung]

+barbie4416 Mm, I feel like whiskers add to it, but it should be fine! it's an easy add anyways if you do change your mind :)

[@jellyswag5013]

Making this for my brother next year this year we’re spirited away he’s no face and I’m chihiro :3

[@fre_wijs]

Hey! What's the kind of fabric you used? Also, how did you find the exact same grey of the sweater?

[@EvaChung]

hi! I used felt as my fabric. The sweater is just a sweater from Walmart. It just happened to be the same gray, haha. I'd say buy the sweater first and bring it into your craft store. I feel like there's more varieties of felt rather than sweaters.

[@richardbuchalski5597]

I think that they have green hoodies @ Walmart. I don't know.

[@xnoontime]

I wuv it! But I can not wear this for Halloween it is wayyy too cute for me girl.. :P

[@EvaChung]

Karin Amano I have some scarier videos planned ;)

[@annayang4950]

[@funmauchan5431]

[@thefashionarchives]

[@sheepstea9583]

[@EvaChung]

+julisaur Ouu! I love home-made costumes! I wanna see!

[@camilleorfao]

Yay, I love it! It's too cuuuute and so easy :D

[@EvaChung]

I thought of you when filming this 😂. I just kept thinking about the Totoro on your wall

[@camilleorfao]

Eva Chung Haha awww! I love Totoro so much. You rocked the sweater so well though. I'm sure I'll see a ton of people doing your DIY for Anime North next year.

[@lucyjiang1354]

I'm going to be a mouse witch thing!! (Its odd i know) 😆

[@rebthekid]

How much felt do you need for each color Eva Chung

[@EvaChung]

Rebekah Tackoor Depends on how big the sweater is :) The ears, I used four 11x8 sheets, but you can probably make do with 2 instead, your ears would just be a tiny tiny bit thinner

[@rebthekid]

Eva Chung​ thank you

[@ninaperry2873]

Where did you get the grey hoodie from?

[@EvaChung]

Nina Perry Walmart :)

[@hlc810]

+Eva Chung what was the name of the sweater/brand?

[@some_gurlsome_where3839]

can you still wash it even with the stuffing in the ears?

[@EvaChung]

nairo teero As long as the stuffing doesn't react weird, I'm sure it's fine. haha. It's like sticking a teddy bear in the wash. if anything it'll take a while longer to try :)

[@some_gurlsome_where3839]

okay thank you

[@MrLexintong]

Nice .... Mexico

[@Sillybeestitches]

there is stuffing in daiso for 1.50 (just more info for u)

[@EvaChung]

Ohh man, I wish I had a Daiso near me ):

[@Sillybeestitches]

you dont have a daiso? :( well try to find one, they have cheap felts and stuff

[@EvaChung]

Noo, I don't think there's one in Canada. At least not that I know of. I wish there was! I always see the coolest hauls from there.

[@hannahmarie4968]

i'm going to be totoro now

[@EvaChung]

Yessss

[@telitaacosta4185]

como cuando estatodo en ingles in no sabes nada 😳😳

[@KimNguyen-zh9nw]

How we gonna wash this???? I'm little bit confuse.

[@EvaChung]

I used double sided tape to make the costume not permanent in case you didn't want to ruin a sweater or wanted to re-use it for another costume. if you want it to be washable and permanent, you can always sew it or use fabric glue instead :)

[@KimNguyen-zh9nw]

Eva Chung oh, thanks for the reply and nice video btw.

[@EvaChung]

Thank you

[@emmasielaff-lewis709]

this reminded me of when I saw someone at school and they had a Totoro backpack and I went up and asked to trade backpacks they said no and I was really sad........

[@EvaChung]

LOL I'd be really sad too. A Totoro backpack would be amazing!

[@richardbuchalski5597]
