Video of the full process for my Targ dress, including the method I use to make very sturdy embroidered patches. Theoretically I could take these off and put them on a different dress or jacket if I wanted to!
Here is my latest crochet project!! And thrifting, sewing, crafting... I knew from the second we were going to move to New Zealand, my "Halloween" (they don't really celebrate it here, but I feel like these costumes are going to be pretty versatile) costume for the family would be Lord of the Rings inspired! So here's our little fellowship - an elf, a dwarf, and a hobbit!
I of course was excited to crochet / yarncraft an epic beard - there are many examples online, I just sort of winged it.
For the cloaks and robes, I thrifted mostly duvet covers, bedsheets, and pillowcases. There are a bunch of cloak tutorials on youtube, but again, I mostly took some inspiration, and worked with the limitations of what I had. A lot of the rest of the clothes were thrifted / we already had.
I also made the leaf pins, trying to make them look a little like the silverfern that is so prominent here in New Zealand, the beard-rings and One Ring out of foil (the gold foil was off a Whittaker's chocolate bar!), elf bracers out of a thrifted purse, and elf ears from some felt and wire I had in my craft stash!
This was really fun to do! It's not a high quality cosplay or anything like that, but the cloaks have great swish, and I'm gonna get some use from them, I'm sure!
hello can you please show us details on the demolition lovers costume they fuck severely
I gotchu buddy
Sorry this took me a bit to get to, the dress was not in my possession since it was a gift for my friend, but I borrowed it to make some repairs! (honestly for not making a test patch and then sending thru the durability test that is dancing and jumping around for an MCR cover band I'm surprised the casualties were kept to like, one or two strands)
Also here's a video of it in motion! Since pics don't capture how much the beads sparkle plus how much motion the dangly bits have
I'll take closeups of the suit when I have the time n add em to this post, hopefully tomorrow?
