Smiffy's Brown & White Striped Shepherd Adult Costume

Product Information

We're aware that the addition of the staff might seem extra, however, we think that it's pretty important. Joseph will most likely be wearing a similar costume to the shepherds. If they are carrying the sheep herding necessity that is the shepherd's crook, their station as one of the shepherds will be obvious at first sight to everyone in the church on Christmas Eve! And while having an extra prop might not be important to an adult, kids are sure to enjoy the way the staff makes them feel like a piece of the biblical past! For men, the costumes might include a simple robe or tunic, often paired with a headscarf to protect against the desert sun, echoing the attire of shepherds in biblical times. This attire is not just a costume; it's a way to connect with a significant historical and spiritual narrative. Never fear! This easy no-sew shepherd costume can be put together in mere minutes. And you probably already have most of what you need lying around the house (if not, thank heaven for overnight deliveries!).

I had known for a while that #JasperBean would take the role of shepherd in his school’s upcoming nativity. But I had put that piece of information aside thinking I had lots of time to prepare for it. Lo and behold, today was costume deadline day! Cue: *Panic*. I seriously needed to get my sh*t together and find/make something or my poor darling would pull one of his sad faces that he would never let me forget. After rummaging through my crafts corner, I’m happy to share with you our speedy 5 minute shepherds costume. Materials:
