Tumnus- Faun Costume

So my sister informed me a week or so ago that we would be dressing up on two nights this Halloween!!! We along with some friends are headed to Las Vegas and going to Heidi Klum's Halloween Party at Tao. We have a table reserved, cause let's face it there's no way I could deal otherwise. The following evening we are going to dinner and then Chandelier.

So on the first night I'll be dressing up as Mystique and on the second night.... A Faun! I've been re-reading The Chronicles of Narnia and thought Tumnus would be a great idea! For those of you who are unfamiliar with fauns they are half man half goat and were woodland spirits that sserved the gods Pan and Bacchus.

Here's the result of my hard work!

I decided to be Mystique for Halloween this year. It has been such a process!!!

If you're curious about making prosthetics out of liquid latex, or just casting molds check out my video on youtube. I'll apologize ahead of time because the sound quality is awful.

Here's a list of items you'll need ( I put a $ symbol next to the items you can find at most chain type dollar stores):
A sharpie marker $
Paper $
Molding Clay Liquid Latex
Baby Powder $ Bamboo Skewers (or the like)
Cotton swabs $
Plaster
Sheet protectors $
A transparent binder
A blush type brush
Prosthetic adhesive/spirit gum
Paint (for what ever colors you want your prosthetic to be)
And a ton of patience!

Good luck!

Welcome!

Hello! Thank you so very much for taking the time to read this. I have been meaning to start a blog for some time now. However, my other projects always seem to get in my way. What other projects? Well I always have something going on. My boyfriend says I'm not happy unless I do, and I think he's correct.

This months projects are catered around my very favorite time of the year.... Halloween!

I have a bunch of other favorite things. Perhaps we have some in common? Please come back and find out.
