...But it's HALLOWEEN!
For the party I made a quick costume with what I had and what I could find in a single trip to the local supermarket (while buying groceries).
Many years ago I bought in Venice this gorgeous Half Moon mask,
made of papier maché and covered in gold foil.
Having this mask as a start,
I decided to make "the night" as a costume.
What I already had:
In my mom's stash ... blue tulle (about 3yards) and blue ribbon (about 2 yards)
From a previous costume I had a pair of goldish gloves.
What I bought:
Local supermarket sells these gold and blue glow in the dark stickers with stars and moons (in the toys section).
--> Make a night costume in few steps:
I doubled the tulle and ruffled at the top, and sew on the ruffled edge some blue satin ribbon.
Then I placed the stars all over the outer layer of the tulle, and hand stitch a single stitch on the star, to make it stay.
With some leftover tulle, I wrapped my head and made a bow in the back.
Ring and bracelet are two hair elastic bands with two stars and two moons sticked on both side of the elastic to make it stay.
A blue dress and a blue pair of shoes... these are real clothes.
Done.
Ready to party!
Happy Halloween ☆★☆NIGHT☆★☆ to you!!
