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.
I’m using the word costume here for lack of a better word, but how gross and awesome is this Dissection Costume? Craftster user jessicution made this last year using “liquid latex, toilet paper, a blow dryer, tom savini paints, and my own fake blood mixture!”
Lisa Ashby of the Modern Homemaker posted a tutorial of this Pee Wee Herman stencil she made with contact paper. Anyone got any Pee Wee Herman costumes?

I *just* emailed my friend Erica tonight about taking a class on stamp carving at Paper-Source in a couple months, so it was super cool to find this on Craftster tonight. chrispykreme carved the apple image from the cover of Twilight as a stamp to use as bookplates. I really want to try this!
Who didn’t love the Iron Man movie? Here are ten of the most awesome Iron Man craft projects that you can do for $20 grand or less…most of them a LOT less!
The Popular Mechanics website featured this “home made” Iron Man suitcrafted by Norweigan costume enthusiast, John Kristiansen and a group of his friends that call themselves TMP. They attempted to create this costume before the May release of the Iron Man film, with nothing but promo pictures of the suit and twenty-thousand dollars.
Yes, you read that correctly! Kristiansen and his pals spent TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS on this realistic costume. It came out so close to perfect that Paramount hired Kristiansen to make appearances around Europe to promote the DVD release, and he plans to use it for charity fundraisers and to talk to children about saftey, saying:
you may not listen to your parents, but if Iron Man tells you to wear a bike helmet, you’re going to do it.
So next time you have an extra twenty thousand sitting around, consider building a costume for a major-blockbuster film!
