Continuing the pandemic era sewing and craft projects, I upcycled bunny ears into a pair of bat ears. My blogging bestie Miranda from Spooky Little Halloween and I went on a Halloween cruise in 2019 and were given bunny ears in Roatan, Honduras. Weird, right? Me being the craft hoarder that I am, I took them […]

Fantasia Inspired Boho Toadstool Mushroom Costume
The latest covid era travel cancellation is a huge disappointment to my mom. I was supposed to take her on a Bahamas cruise in October, but the health and financial risk isn’t worth keeping those travel plans. As an alternative and something for both of us to look forward to, we talked about a secluded […]

It was a good […]

As a casual costumer, I try to play along with their themed weekends (Oktoberfest, […]
Wedding Things and Stuff for Other People
After doing my own wedding, a dear friend of mine asked me to help her with some minor wedding reception decor and favors. I was much obliged to help her enhance the wine theme that she had begun working on. Enophilia was already a big part of Monica and Bret’s lives together, as they had […]

Costuming Artemisia from 300: Rise of an Empire
About a year ago I joined a fitness group (well…a fitness group with an interest in cosplay) that gets together once a year for DragonCon in Atlanta. When I joined I just wanted to stay on the perimeter and be the introvert that I am. As a newer member of the Spartans (300dc), I thought […]
