How to make your own superhero cape
Here’s how to make your own superhero cape inspired by The Thundermans: Undercover:
- Fold the dark blue fabric in half lengthwise.
- Starting at 5½ inches from the center fold on the top edge, cut diagonally down to the bottom corner of the non-folded side.
- Place a plate upside down over the top of the folded edge, with the plate coming about 5½ inches down from the top and with about 1½ inches from the cut edge. Use this as a guide to cut a rounded section out of the fabric to create the cape’s collar.
- Unfold the cape and use a hot glue gun to attach pieces of Velcro to the collar straps (one piece on top of one strap, and the corresponding piece on the bottom of the other strap so that they would connect and attach to each other when the straps are wrapped around your neck).
- Using the yellow, red, and light blue felt, cut out the layers of the Thundermans T logo, and attach the layers on top of each other using hot glue.
- Hot glue the T logo to the center of the back of the cape.
