This took me 4 months to make. The snake was all brown and was spray painted yellow and white. The top was white until I dyed it on my stove top. The tops center “bling” is put together with dental floss and colored sharpies. The britches were the most tedious. Each and every button/stone is … Read more
these headless costumes are always sure to please the crowd, whether it’s a headless Zombie or a headless Celebrity or even as headlessly married. I first designed one of these just the zombie around 2008 I had even made a rolling coffin from a wheel chair to go with, so that could stand inside and … Read more
First I brought a fedora, a sequined glove and sunglasses at a Party City. My outfit consisted of a white button up 3/4 sleeve shirt, a vintage tshirt and some black slacks, and my combat boots. I put my hair up into a ponytail and let some loose strands fall in front of my face. The hardest … Read more
So for two years now I have been telling my friends how badly I wanted to be Beyonce for halloween (or just for every day because I idolize her). I really contemplated on how I would do it and I kept doubting the outcome. I really never want to have a costume where people have … Read more
Keeping with the pop star theme each year for Halloween I had to come up with another idea. What better way than to bring it back to the very beginning, Madonna from her VMA performance “like a virgin”. I went to Ardenes and loaded up on pearls, crosses and all the costume jewelry I wore. … Read more

Easy for Robin Thicke, we used a black suit and put white duct tape on for the pin stripes, and bought black aviators and gold jewelry at the local salvation army. Then we blow dried Tom’s hair to give it the fluffy flow like Robin Thicke’s. For the Miley costume, I used clear rubberbands to … Read more
WRECKING BALL: I used 3 different sized hula hoops from the Dollar Store. I hung them them using string to be sure the ball was the right length. I then cut and taped strips of cardboard vertically over the hula hoops to give it a rounded shape. I taped thin wire under each cardboard strip … Read more
Being the huge Michael Jackson fan that I am I decided to re-create the outfit he wore in the “Remember the Time” video. It was a bit harder than I anticipated but turned out wonderful and got lots of compliments. Starting off with the shirt. Where the heck was I going to find a long … Read more
Was good last year and better this year. Did Remember the Time for all the die hard MJ fans. This years outfit was so much more detailed and hard to find. Took me over a month to get the peices worked out so they looked just like the outfit he had on in the spectacular … Read more
Well it wasn’t too hard coming up with this sexy Miley Cyrus costume, I’m not sure if it counts as home-made since I did not make any of it, but since it isn’t an actual store bought costume I thought I’d give it a shot! My costume was a nude top from American Appareal, nude … Read more
