Guess I am going to have to add a halo to my costume - Paul the psychic octopus died on Monday. (They don't live very long, so that was due to happen.) http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/10/27/...l-the-octopus/
Thanks for asking! I'm actually pretty much done with the dresses (did an underdress too). Just have to do some fitting and hem. Figured out that I want to put elastic in the hem of the main dress attached to ribbon on the outside and when I'm ready to attack, I just pull, tie and I'm off. Should be easy to handle. Good luck with yours! Just remember tentacles are always a hit!
Hi Cheebs - How is the costume coming? Did you stick with your Elizabeth Bennett idea? I'm hoping to get a chance to work on mine this weekend - time is getting pretty tight, so I hope I'll at least be able to throw something together!
Thank you for the compliment on my costume idea! Gives me some hope about the creativity. Yours sounds interesting too!
