I haven't been a member of these forums for very long, but it's already become clear to me that everybody here has way more than usual industry and ingenuity than your average Halloween celebrant. They know how to (or get good advice from here on how to) produce the effects they want for their costumes, props, decorations, etc.

That means using whatever it takes to get the job done, even a trip to the costume store. You do it to get your makeup, right? Why not a wig or costume accessory that you can alter to fit your handmade stuff? I have no doubt that you could've made a wig and Freddy glove, but would it really have been worth the trouble? Looking at the photos of your successful costumes, freud, I'd guess not.
