Hunger, Lolli & Avenger Sneak Peek

And here they are the props for the kids. The lollipop is paper based with tissue paper wound to make the rainbow effect.

I did end up using duct tape for the shield as it has a 16" diameter and needed the strength of the plastic cloth. Not very environmentally friendly but looks super avenger.

The quill is made from an Pringles can and some gun metal cardstock.

Hello Katie, Katriss & Captain

So I have been diligently working on props for Halloween. Ms. Perry needs a lollipop, Katriss a quill and well Captain America a shield.

You may remember my post about my nephew and his funny costume a toilet. Well, he had a change of heart and while I did a lot of research to figure out the toilet costume believe it or not his shield was quite difficult to do.

Well kids I have finished all three and I am pretty happy with the end results.Gluing stuff has been problematic because after 3 months of dry weather the humidity is causing me grief but I am done. Yippee!

Sneak peek tomorrow...
