For Halloween this year I am going to be 'Wednesday Adams goes to Catholic School'. I have my skirt cut out and begging to be sewn together. I still need to cut out the shirt, and I think I may have to pick up some interfacing. Money is going to be tight this week, so I am trying to not spend a lot. I am still going to need at the very least, a rosary (which I think I will make. I may have some wooden beads around here somewhere), and a doll whose head has been removed.
I think I am going to hit up a couple of thrift stores, and hope that I can throw together a creepy enough doll dress. Why do I always leave these things until the last minute?? Argh!

I need a bottle of Blavod black vodka for Halloween! Unfortunately, the liquor store in BC doesn't carry it anymore, and the only way they will order it in is if I want to buy a whole case.
So, it looks like I have two options: I can 1) take a trip down to Seattle to see if I can find a liquor store that carries it there. Or, I can 2) find someway to get it shipped to me.
I have already emailed the company in the hopes that I can get them to send me a bottle directly, but I don't have my hopes up really high. I wonder if an American liquor store would ship me a bottle?
I refuse to be thwarted this year! I will have my black vodka! Grrr!

So, I went surfing around looking for some ideas to help me with my Halloween mask. These are the ones I liked best.

I am having a heck of a time figuring out which I would like best. Prolly the golden one. I think I would like to make it in crimson and gold with feathers if I can manage it. Maybe draw the detail on with fabric paint with sequins in key places.

Well, it is clearly going to be entirely too cold for my Catholic School Girl idea, so I have had to come up with some others. What I have so far is a new set of fangs (the kind that are tooth caps) and a mask base.
I want to make some sort of Mardi Gras/Masquerade style of mask on a stick. Mainly because I have always wanted one, and also because it will let me be a little less grandious with my make-up this year (I am half hoping to avoid the fake blood if I can ... just so that it won't stain my clothes.
The fangs are kind of cool (I am wearing them now). They kind of make me lisp, and I think I am going to have to get a tube of that whitening toothpaste. Eep!
We are going to be outside, so I am gonna need to dress warmly. I haven't decided what to wear, and I haven't really decided on what I want my mask to look like yet, but I think I am off to a good start.
I also got out the Halloween decorations at last. I have decided that I am not going to polergist myself with this whole ghost thing. I will figure it out, and do what I need to.
