2020 wrap-up
I always looking forward to doing my end of the year costume wrap-ups. This year is sad. I really didn’t think a year could get worse than 2019 and that 2020 would be a great year. Instead we got a dumpster fire. I’m angry, sad, depressed. All I want is to get eat pizza in a restaurant. Anyway. I did…

2017 Year in Review

2015 Year in Review!!
Maybe the morning after Star Wars isn’t the best time to do this. I went to bed hours after I normally do and still had to get up at 6:30 for work today so I am beyond fuzzy. BUT I realized I hadn’t done this yet and got all excited to type up the post, so here we go, fuzzy…

2008 in review
What I accomplished in 2008 (and what I didn’t, LOL) Well it was weird year for me, costume-wise, because the first part of the year was eaten by my wedding, both financially and time-wise. I was still attemping to work on stuff – to make things that were easy, or that I already had material for. I think after the…
