My Halloween Costume

So here it is ... the costume that consumed my entire week last week.
I miss waking up early and going to bed late, planning and scheming and deciding which way best to continue with the next bit.
In the end it turned out better than expected and I managed to teach myself how to make a jacket from scratch albeit out of paper.



Yip, for the most part the costume was made out of paper and white thread.

There was everything from tissue paper, to crepe paper, doilies, some paper table cloths were used and some white poster paper ...

Then it was all topped off with a bit of face paint 'cest voila'.

Thanks Dave for taking instruction on how to take the photo for me :)

This 18th C character was the ghost of the paper doll called 'Paper Cuts'
