Halloween's coming up soon...

[Kanti]

So what's everyone gonna be?? What do you guys plan on doing?

I'm not completely sure what I'm going to be yet, but I'm currently working on
making a pair of wings and I thought some of you guys might be able to make them
too for your own costumes~



I'm going to be putting a tutorial on my blog soon, I'll update you guys further later
on~

[MountainMermaidBrooke]

Sound like fun! I am gonna do hubby up like a Goron, Myself as a Zora((Hehehe)) My daughter up as little Zelda and My little Bitty Boy up as little Link. XD Its gonna be a thrill to see how many people get the reference.

[Joy&RaptorsUnrestrained!]

I am toying with the idea of being an ent/dryad/treant/green man, a Sphinx, a frost giant, or Mimic from the X-men.

[Kanti]

Wow Brooke you're autmatically my favorite, you better take a picture of that xD I love Zelda
I actually wanted to do a Ghirahim costume soon (the main villain from Skyward Sword)

@Joy - I think a dryad would be super awesome x__x If you've played Skyrim I absolutely love
the spriggans. If I ever made a dryad costume I'd have to base it off them~

[Jadestone]

Ohh, I like the wing! I'd like to make a set of "feather" looking wings sometime, I did a set of dragon ones for last halloween...


They expanded when I stood on my toes like so:


Sadly they were just too big for me to bring back this year : / Otherwise I'd maybe do a Cthulhu costume. This year though I might go as Jessie from Team Rocket (Pokemon), mostly because I have a friend who said he'd lend me his baby boa constrictor. If not I can always just, y'know, be a mermaid and use it as an excuse to make people wheel me around in a rolling desk chair at my hall's party ^^

[Mermaid Celissa]

I'm going as...a mermaid! My friend Brittany and I asked me if I wanted to go to a theme park for Halloween, and there's costuming! She's gonna be a zombie rockstar:



Anyway, back to my costume.


It consists of this top:



This skirt:



These shoes:



This, on a necklace:



This blue scary to drape around my shoulders, or as a belt:



And my walking tail, similar to Kae-Leah's. I don't have a picture but I have a video:

[*Celine*]

last year I was the Corpse Bride, Don't know yet what I'll do this year...

[Mermaid Annariea]

i want to go as an elven ranger/druid sort of thing.
but i have no money to buy a costume, or even buy materials to make one.

[Mermaid Celissa]

Well Brianna, my costume is entirely made of things I found around the house. :P

[Kanti]

Well Brianna, the wings I'm making only cost about $10 total if you make them from only one color
If you make them out of 2 they'll probably cost around $12.

They're made from felt (which at Joanns is about $5 a yard, and you only really need one yard) and
glue to stiffen them, also some wire which is about $4 or so.

@Jade - Damn you, you really make a lot of stuff! Those things are huge!!
I love oversized wings so much x___x
I remember being obsessed with them last year and I ended up making a dragon costume xD

[Azurin Luna]

We don't have Halloween here, I made some Halloween cookies last year and hardly any of my colleagues wanted to try them

[sunrise]

I'm going to go as Sen from Spirited Away in her bathhouse robes.

[Ayla of Duluth]

I'm going to be a reindeer. A glimmer of light and hope, a symbol of delicacy and beauty on such a scary night. I'm even going to make bite sized oatmeal cookies with a little fine glitter mixed in that kids can feed me, just like when they used to throw sparkly oatmeal out into the yard for santas reindeer. I gotta find a Halloween buddy to protect me this year because last year I went by a haunted house and a guy with chains came out and wrapped me up and put me on the ground and another guy showed up with a chainsaw without a chain and they said they were gonna teach me about prime cuts. I still remember curling up in fear and yelling "I'm too cute for this!" to try and save myself. xD

[Joy&RaptorsUnrestrained!]

Azurin Luna, it was my understanding that Halloween was gaining increasing popularity, starting in France and spreading across Europe (including the Nederlands). Also, what did your Halloween cookies look like and what where they made of? I find it hard to picture people turning down cookies, even if they aren't for a holiday that is particularly popular in your country.

sunrise, that is a brilliant idea! I loved Spirited Away (hmmm... I recently cut my hair and I think I've outgrown my gui, otherwise going as Haku might've been another idea for me... oh well).

Ayla of Duluth, I love your idea as well! I have a Changeling: The Lost character who is based on the legends of flying reindeer. Also, that experience with walking by the haunted house seems a bit excessive, even for Halloween.

[Kanti]

Man Halloween is so much fun~ I don't know the exact story of origin, or at least
I was told it once but I'm not sure how true it is, but I think it's general enough that
it could apply to everyone?

@ Ayla - did you know who those people were or did strangers tie you up O_O
cause either that's a funny story or a really scary one xD
I'm still not sure what I want to be but I'd love something with bodypaint!

[Mermaid Celissa]

Those dragon costumes are wonderful!

[AniaR]

no idea. lol last year I was catwoman (michelle style), year before lady Gaga, the year before that super woman, and the year before that poison ivy. Hahah

[MermaidAliyah]

I LOVE Halloween. Last year I went to schol with ' vampire bites ' on my neck. LOl. And I was trying out something new and made my neck look like someone had cut it. I think I might wear that to school this year. Or either be a fairy since I have a pair of cheap wings in my closet. Though they tend to shed alot of glitter,but I just call it pixiedust! LOL

[MermaidAliyah]

@Kanti you never cease to amaze me that dragon costume is amazing! Wish I could let you meet my niece and nephew like that!

[Mermaid Annariea]

i actually really love the pattern for your wings, kanti, but im not doing wings.
im hoping ill get this job so i can have money to order all the stuff i need for the costume. but if not, i can just be a vampire again haha. or a mermaid...
