Tetris Border Print Fabric
I am completely in awe of this Tetris Border Print fabric at Spoonflower, designed by Jenny of Chronically Uncool. I’m picturing the raddest dress ever!

Renee’s Top 3 Costumes
When we decided to each pick our top three Halloween costumes from the last two months, I knew I had a tough job ahead of me. We found so much pure gold this year, and it was really hard to choose just three, but I did my best. So without further adieu, my top three:
The Yip Yips by Tracy Lawson, they are sparkly, cute, and nostalgic! What more could you want? And if you’re going to be an adult in a Sesame Street costume, please, please, do not dress up as Elmo!
Two: Baby Elvis Costume! Seriously, at what other time has a kid so small rocked so much (I’m excluding toddlers with mohawks for this one)? CuriousFae did an awesome job on this one! (via craftster).
And last but not least: THE GORE! Halloween is historically about death and ghosts, and GORE, why else did I rent three horror movies to watch tonight? The Dissection Costume wins on the gore factor! To make it even cooler, jessicution didn’t go to the Halloween super store to pick this number up, it is all made from scratch, even the fake blood! Totally awesome! (via craftster).

The Office Dwight T-shirt
Anyone dressing up as Dwight from The Office for Halloween? That would be an easy costume to put together with thrift store finds. Craftster user spotted zebra used a freezer paper stencil to make this t-shirt of Dwight and one of his best lines.
If you don’t feel like making one, you can find lots of pre-made The Office t-shirts.

Brak Costume
If you’re looking for a Halloween costume that is just obscure enough, then discomeat at craftster has got one for you! This is her husband dressed in the Brak Costume she made him for a costume contest. Anybody can pull of a Space Ghost costume, but I think you’ve got to have a certain “I don’t-know-what” to pull of Brak.

Regency Costume
Jane Austen, anyone? Craftster user bekibutton sewed this lovely outfit to attend the Jane Austen Festival Grand Regency Promenade. I also like her “Obligatory cat-gets-involved-with-crafts” pictures too :)

Fleur Delacour Costume
Prendolyn the Weird blogs all Harry Potter crafts, all the time at Wilcox Wizard Wear. Click through to read five posts detailing how she made this wonderful Fleur Delacour costume to wear to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. She did everything from sewing the dress and capelet to painting a pair of shoes to making the wool hat. (Is there a verb for hat making? Besides hat making?) I am in awe and plan on spending some quality time reading her entire blog.
