More dress progress (Posted 21st October 2011)

Woke up this morning and my mum has sewn on the frondy bits to the top. Really only have the bottom part to cut into shape and add frondy flappy bits to, then i'll trim them up so they don't all look the same or i dunno. bodge it. like i do.

Dress Progress (Posted 20th October 2011)

The top is now sewn to the skirt and my mum help me put in a 'hidden' zip so i can fit the poxy dress over my tatas. Made the tassle-y bit for the top awsell. Yesterday i bought a replacement lipstick for pocahontas as the one i was gonna use broke. ill fix it after expo, i also got some bronzer to fake her cheekbones and a natural brown eyeshadow. I need to find my hair extensions to. As long as my hair is, it's not quite pocahontas length yet.

Necklace Complete (Posted 18th October 2011)

Fiddle-y arsey thing.Made from fimo clay. i couldn't decide if i wanted to make it seperate beads or one whole thing. after failing dismally with my the beads i opted for a making it in one piece with the white doodad hanging by a wire. I used white Fimo and painted it with acrylic paints. It's tied up round the back with a natural coloured string/bootlace kinda thing.

I've set myself a challenge.
To have this costume complete by the friday of expo. that gives me 11-ish days to make it. I'm off to a good start. cut out all the pieces for the dress, gonna go out tomorrow to get some fimo for the necklace, lighter bit of material for the tassle-y bits, and a dark brown something for the waist.
