\"\"We\u2019re going to party hard at Karneval! With magnificent fancy dress costumes, creepy masks and funny hats. With flamboyant decorations for procession and Festival Committee floats, colourful accessories for the party that follows, and all sorts of amusing bits and pieces for almost any false nose. And there is only one answer to the question \u201cWho\u2019s going to pay for that – who has that much dough?\u201d: If you have the right tool to hand, it costs next to nothing to do it yourself.<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

In fact, all that\u2019s needed for the best Karneval costume is colourful paper and cardboard, a few scraps of cloth, rhinestone, plumes and glitter, and of course a strong pair of scissors and a good hot glue gun<\/a>, like the one from Trotec\u2019s PGGS series. Decorated with a bit of imagination, an original disguise is made in an instant, topping any expensive costume bought in a shop by a long way. And the same principle applies to the decoration of the procession floats and the party decor: Make it yourself …<\/p>\n

Which costume will it be this year?<\/h3>\n
