Make your Own Minecraft Steve Head

It's simple and requires just cardstock and glue. Find out how easy it is to make your own Minecraft Steve Head!





Minecraft Steve Head Costume

A few years ago, my son told me that he wanted to be Steve from Minecraft. It was a simple enough costume: turquoise t-shirt with jeans and a huge cardboard head. He already had the t-shirt and the jeans, so all I had to do was purchase the Steve head. I found an Minecraft Steve head online for $50 and thought, "Oh hell no...I'm going to make it cheaper than the price!" So here it is...a very simple guide to making your own Minecraft Steve Head.



Before I get into this I feel compelled to apologize. When I created this for my son I didn't know what I would end up putting on my blog. I didn't even take any photos to use as a tutorial. I didn't even get fantastic photos of me. This is a very simple assembly, even without step-by-step pictures.





Items for Steve Minecraft Head Costume

Before you start, you will require:



T-shirt in turquoise - Jeans - glue - 16x16 cardboard boxes - Cardstock in the following colors white - cream - light tan - tan - light brown - brown - dark brown very dark brown red - reddish brown (I am able to see that I chose red, therefore I could not have been able to find reddish brown at Michaels)



The box was 16x16x16 and since there were eight squares up and down pictured I knew my squares would have to be 2x2. With my paper cutter all set to go, I spent the next half hour cutting up a lot of squares.



I used regular school glue to affix to the box. It seemed to work out just fine.






Cut out the eyes!






The test is...can you trick or treat your baby sister without her head falling off? Yes. Yes you can.






Although this project can be time-consuming, it is very easy and something that you and your children can do together.



Our Steve head was the perfect table decor for his Minecraft party. It certainly did stand the test of time since it survived living in my son's bedroom for six years. It was definitely worth the effort!

My son was so enthralled with Minecraft that he even carved an Minecraft themed pumpkin. My daughter, Gretl from "Sound of Music" was not too sure about it...









Happy Halloween from Steve & Gretl!
