I FINALLY figured out how to make a 3 column blog which has made me very happy, and I'm working on other changes to make it more exciting! Do you like the new banner? I think I like it a lot :)
The Craft Sale and Pink Panther are over, and I'm moving into the basement in a few weeks which I am very excited about!
This post is kinda all over the place, but here's a picture from a little photo shoot I took in my yard this week.
This week I've got lots going on, but it should all be very exciting! I will definitely have pictures to share AND hopefully an etsy update!!!
I'm not gonna lie, I love this costume. It was fun to make and even more fun to wear! And I'm also going to brag a little about the construction of this outfit.
Firstly, the wig was 36" inches long, had a middle part and was all kinky and not very straight at all. I cut off half of the hair, glued some on for the bangs, and glued the rest onto the head to fill in bald-ish spots (cheap wigs like these do not come with enough hair). I also straightened it all with my hair straitener.
Secondly, yes, that skirt is made of bubble wrap. I sewed bubble wrap onto a piece of elastic and voila, bubble wrap mini skirt!
Lastly, the bow is made of bubble wrap and the shoulders are also stuffed with bubble wrap!
This outfit won me Most Creative Costume at the party I was at!

Life's about to get a lot more busy in the next few weeks so that may mean that posting is scarce (As it has been this past month as well but hopefully after Nov. 8th I will have more free time because then my play is over as well as the craft sale! I'm excited for both, but I'm also excited for them not to be taking up most of my free time.
