know I have a lot of projects on the go, and a lot of things that I need to complete, but in case you didn't know, Halloween is right around the corner! A month and a half until all the awesome costumes & an excuse to go a little crazy!
DS & I have sat down & discussed costume ideas for this year, and he wants to be scary. A scary monster.
We had written down all of the components that his costume must have, and drawn a little sketch. When he added one more element, I had an "AHA!" moment & showed him some pictures from Google. He loved them! So, costume decision for him is finalized.
Today, he & I sat down to start the first piece - the wings!
A tutorial will follow, but for now, here is a couple cute shots:
There are some things left to do, of course. First, we need to figure out something to stop them from flopping around so much, and changing the colours to something more suiting & authentic.
Oohh... I'd love a tutorial! The munchkin I nanny for absolutely adores dress up time so some fun wings would be awesome. Can't wait to see the rest of his costume. :)
