Dyeing is a new thing!

 hey everyone so just a quick update I'm just going to post a bunch of photos from the costumes I've been working on not in any particular order. But I know there are some from Nessa we went to Halloween party there's some of Lagertha and I've been working on the resistance pilot outfit.

The resistance pilot costume has been kind of a challenge. I've been going off the reference photos from a very detailed picture of 4 pilots. And I'm kind of winging it I don't know if this will be a provable from the rebel Legion or what but I think it's coming out pretty cool. I have learned how to dye polyester and I'm getting pretty good at dyeing cotton. I had a jumpsuit that was orange and I didn't want to buy a new one so I reused this one it was just the wrong color of orange. Interstellar Orange apparently is a thing I don't know if that's an actual color but Star Wars has made it one.

Guess who's back, back again.

Hey everyone I haven't posted in a very long time and I apologize for that. September was a busy month with the bakery and was also trying to get some costume stuff done and then my sister had her baby and October. Little Charlie we're very excited the whole family's been super thrilled with this baby and life has just changed a little bit again for us. October is another fun Monday through us because it's Halloween and we get to decorate the house and playing all the spooky stuff for the kids that come trick-or-treating we were also invited to some parties so we want to all those. Hahaha.

It's also an emotional month my dad love Halloween love Halloween. And this is the first year we didn't carve pumpkins together, the first year I didn't get a phone call on Halloween from him. Just weird not having him around I know it's kind of cliché to say but you really do miss the little things.

On a positive note my brother is in Haiti right now helping out with his church. Haven't talked to him in a week which is weird but he doesn't have any service down there. He comes home on Monday and I'm super excited.

One of the parties you want to our friends Chris and his wife are huge Halloween and they do a really big haunt every year. And they've inspired us to try and do one next year maybe not as big as theirs but definitely bigger than what we've done. I'm looking forward to building some of the larger props for next year. Halloween is always been my family's favorite holiday and maybe in honor of my dad will try to do the haunt every year. Maybe work something out with doing the Food donation Bend or something in his memory.

I have been on vacation this week and I've been spending time with my sister and the baby but I've also been working on costumes. Rhode Island Comic Con is right around the corner and I know everyone's prepping for that. I'm not they doing any new costumes so I am bringing Nessa from Arrow we wore our Arrow costumes the other day to a party. It went over pretty well I still need a bow though.

Again I am sorry that I haven't been posting it's very much unlike me I would like to have more posted last year and so forth. So I might go to posting frenzy this month.

Thanks for reading and thanks for watching and I'm sure I'll be updating on the regular now
