Pumpkin Roundup

I hate the smell of pumpkin so I was thrilled to see such a long thread on Craftster (and a couple other places) of jack o’ lanterns that I don’t have to look at in person. Here are the geekiest:

Other Mother Costume for Dragon*Con

Craftster member thestamppit made an ingenious Other Mother costume for this year’s Dragon*Con — love the details!

She mentioned on this “Other Mother” costume thread on Craftster that she attached the large buttons with spirit gum and she could see through the button holes… very cool. Her friend has a fantastic Bellatrix LeStrange costume as well — what a great pair of sinister characters from two of my all-time favorites, Coraline and Harry Potter.

Golden Snitch Pasties

Chibi_Muse, on craftster, knows what being a true Harry Potter fan is about. Being a true Harry Potter fan involves spending two days on Golden Snitch Pasties to wear under your Gryffindor costume, in order to flash the attendees of a midnight showing on stage! I love these!  I don’t know exactly how you would work them into a Halloween costume, but hey, you’re creative, right?
