More Halloween Costume Adventures!

I know I just crafted about some of the fun crafty costumes I saw on Halloween, but I keep seeing blog posts on amazing costumes and I just HAD to share a few with you!

I absolutely loved "Where the Wild Things Are" as a kid. So I was super excited to see these amaaazing costumes from the Craft Magazine blog!
I mean, they are just incredible!


I thought this "low resolution" costume, also from the Craft Magazine blog, was awesome!

I found this "Big Head" costume on Gizmodo. It was my husband's personal fave!
Definitely click on the link so that you can read about how he made this costume. Simply amazing!

All of these awesome costumes are inspiring me to go all out for next year. I've got a year to come up with something totally awesome and craft-tastic!

Halloween Costume Adventures!

Hopefully everyone out there had a fantastic and fun Halloween--I know I sure did! I thought I would blog about some awesome crafty Halloween costumes that I saw and helped with yesterday. The first one was my friend Jessica, from Sweet Athena:

She dressed up as the Bee Girl from the Blind Melon music video for their song "No Rain". Here's the original Bee Girl, in case you don't know what I'm talking about:
Didn't she do a great job crafting her costume??? I loved it!


Next is my other friend Jessica, who went as the Easter Bunny:
She made her ears and belly out of felt, and I made her a cute pom pom tail!

And now here's my costume! I decided to go as a kind of Mash-Up of different Lady Gaga songs. For her song "Just Dance" I wore a tutu dress and sparkly ballet slippers. For "Poker Face" I attached a poker hand to my sunglasses. For "Love Game" I created a 'disco stick' out of a Christmas Ornament. I also wore my camera around my neck for "Paparazzi". It was a fun costume to put together and I really like how it turned out!

Here I am with my wonderful husband, who came as Mrs. Doubtfire!

I can't believe that it's November already! I've got to get back to work making Christmas presents!
