No Pictures Please...

I wasn't able to get any pictures of our costumes this weekend. We don't have a camera that works properly and no one at the party was taking pictures. But our costumes turned out great. I bought this fake hair for Tallon so he could make a beard... but on the back of the box it said not to glue it on your face if you have facial hair... and unfortunately Tallon has decided to grow a "real" beard and didn't want to shave it off. So instead we had this foam bored that we were using to make is clock and he cut out a beard from that. It was so funny... we put a elastic band on it so he could put it around his head and it would stay up. I really wish we had a picture of it.

My costume turned out pretty good too. I planned on making a dress, but that is a lot of work... so I made a skirt instead. I bought some elastic and then pinned thick strips of fabric to it and then sewed on fake leaves and flowers. I took a white shirt I had and sewed on some of the same flowers and leaves. I wore my hair really curly and kind of messy and clipped in some more of the flowers... It actually really cute and not too hand made. I was pretty proud of myself for completing it. And now I think I might buy a sewing machine and learn how to sew. I think I could make a lot of cute things. Oh, I also were my makeup kind a cool and used a lot of glitter :)

Too bad we didn't have a camera... maybe I will make Tallon dress up again and we can get a picture of it.
