A Little Bit About Me
Hi! My name is Gigi, and I am so happy you chose my blog for advice on costumes. Like many people, I used to go out every Halloween and spend 60-80$ on costumes every year. I've always had a great selection of costumes at home (thank you mom for garage sale-ing) but never thought how I could put them to work. In 2012 my friends and I wanted to be the Avengers, but didn't want to spend a lot of money on them. I started to work on my costume, then immediately fell in love and offered to do theirs. I only started theirs the night before the party, so I didn't get to work as much on them as I liked. In 2013 we ended up not throwing a party, so the costumes will be for 2014.
Having trouble finding a Tutorial on a costume not shown?
Tweet @diy_costumes and I will get back to you as soon as I can. I'd love to help you brainstorm, or even help you make some of the pieces! Also read my section on Designing Your Own Costume. Please give me at least a one month advance if you want me to make something. The costumes shown on this site are not for sale.
Please let me know what you think about my costumes. tutorial, or the site in general. My twitter is @diy_costumes.
