DIY Dr. Strange costume accessories part 3 will wrap up our Halloween attire. Accessories make it work, right? Let’s get started!
DIY Dr. Strange Costume Accessories
The Belt-
I made the belt out of faux crocodile vinyl leftovers from these chairs.
Cut 4 inch wide strips. My strips ranged from 24 inches in length down to 16 inches in length. This was a happy accident – I was working with scraps so some pieces were just naturally shorter BUT because of the varying lengths the belt actually wrapped around easier. I made the belt three times the size of my son’s waist.
I reinforced the seams for added strength.
To tie the belt I sewed two ties.
I added a few swipes of bronze paint to highlight the crocodile texture.
The Eye of Agamotto Amulet
So I found a costume jewelry medallion in my stash and painted it gold with a green accent to mimic the amulet. Then the next year when he wanted to be Dr. Strange again, I found a proper interpretation.

The Sling Ring –
My son decided that he wanted to make his own sling ring so he used a cardboard box flap and cut the ring out. He used hot glue to create a design on the top and allowed it to cool then he painted it gold.

Pulling it all the accessories together –
We chose a black shirt and black dress pants. I cut strips from the leftover scrap of the navy blue sheet and crisscrossed tied around the arms and legs.
For shoes – black army boots
And just for comparison – here is a deluxe costume with a whopping $140 to $190!
The homemade version isn’t perfect but man, not bad right?
I hope you have a fun night trick or treating!
