Inspiration: This is my boyfriend & I! First off. We love Star Wars & are stoked for the upcoming movie. We weren’t planning on dressing up this year but then we got invited to a last minute party so we had to put something together quick, but wanted to keep it unique. I had seen … Read more

Where to start… ok 106 hours, 38 Days and The Millennium Falcon was born. I wanted to take my 15 month old Daughter to our local Comic Convention and thought that her wagon would be the best way to take her, it’s very very busy and she is getting big/heavy and I can not carry … Read more

For this spookiest Orlok costume, we bought the mask and hands from a professional mask company (that was the starting point). We loved the mask but had no idea what to dress him in. This is a Silicone mask and hands made to fit your body. We looked on the net and found a pattern … Read more
