A Break from the Monotony...

Sat Nov 7, 2009, 2:56 PM
For Halloween I was Max from Where the Wild Things Are. I modified a cat/dog costume sewing pattern that my mom had lying around because the Halloween costume patterns in the store were almost $18!

So, the only problem with all of this was ...I can't sew for crap. Well, I can sew, but I'm not good at visualizing the finished garment when it's all in pieces. I had to make a million adjustments after it was already sewn together, which was really hard and discouraging. It was cool I could save the money and use that old pattern of my Mom's, but I think it was meant to be for someone that was twice my size and height! It was good enough to wear to the Halloween party I was invited to but, as stupid as it sounds, I'm still working on it. Maybe I'll wear it next year too, I don't know. I hope to post pictures of it by the middle of next week because things are going to be crazy around that time for me, so I better get it done beforehand.

Anyway, so here's the detached hood an gloves. My dad got me some speaker wires for the whiskers, but I couldn't securely fasten them to the hood in time for the party, so I had to use my fallback pipe cleaners instead. Hope you like what I've done so far:



Things have been getting complicated for me. I've been getting increasingly frustrated and discouraged as the days go on. The last thing I wanted to do was complain here in my journal, though, so I'll stop there. I just wanted to express what awesome timing it was that I got these incredible and supremely amazing images that I bought from *Freakshow6. I had to show them off because I'm way too giddy about them! XD

I got these pictures:


And he threw in a bonus Sheik picture which was way too nice of him! XD Don't they all go so well together?

Click here for a larger picture to enjoy the goodyness more. Heehee.

If I'm not mistaken, :iconfreakshow6: must have sold his last Link copy. But you should still keep an eye out for more pictures at his Esty shop. Follow the link and check it out! I'm very happy with my Link picture; it's so glossy and pretty and perfectly cut. Not to mention; the price is very reasonable! I'm just glad I got mine when I did! :D

Well, that's all for now. I need to hurry and cook dinner before everyone starves and/or yells at me.

Ooh! Lucky, lucky! If my college doesn't have Coke machines on campus ...I might need to switch colleges!! :O

I find myself going to certain eating establishments based solely on the fact that they have Coca-Cola products or not. Heehee! :giggle:
