My husband and I love to dress up and strive to be the best costume in town every year. My grandmother taught me how to sew when I was four or five years old and since then have always made my own Halloween costumes.
This year’s Papa Smurf and Smurfette costume was by far my favorite. When I originally planned the costume I had a blue shirt for Jesse to wear but he said that if we were going to do it we had to do it all the way. So he had his entire upper body airbrushed blue. I think the funnest part of the night besides winning 1st place twice at two different parties was leaving our mark everywhere we went through the night. There was blue finger prints on everything.
I actually got the idea from the internet and had to alter several patterns to get the right look.
it looks great! I tried it for this and ended up missing the first party since it took me two hours to paint myself. I was unhappy with the results so I spent the next three hours washing it off. And it ruined my white dress =(
What paint did you use? And how did you apply it?
We were actually airbrushed. I found a local costume shop that did airbrush face painting and them just spray our whole bodies =)
