Creating a DIY wolf mascot costume is fun, cheap, and showcases creativity. Gather gray faux fur, light gray fabric, foam, cardboard, hot glue, scissors, paints/markers, elastic bands, old clothes, and optionally stiff felt for claws. Shape cardboard into a wolf head, cover with foam, then fabric, and add painted features. Make a body piece from the gray fabric, fitting it over old clothes secured with elastic. Fashion arm paws and feet from oval-cut gray fabric, attaching to sleeves and shoes. Create a tail from a rolled strip of faux fur. Add spots or patterns and consider felt claws for realism. Patience ensures a cohesive look. Enjoy your unique costume!
