Day 26: ideas?

As I'm putting the finishing touches on this years halloween costume I realize u haven't done something scary since I was a kid. I did vampire several years in a row and around 12 I started wanting to be less scary more sexy. So barri h pregnancy ( unless I want to up the scare factor on my scarecrow) I'm really trying to come up with something scary. In my search I found this amazing costume from the cover of Pride and Predjudice and Zombies.

Day 19: costume awards

I love Halloween parties but I hate it when no one dresses up. One sure fire way to encourage costumes is to have a costume contest! Granted the party I go to is mostly other theatre people so it doesn't take much encouragement, but I have been to boring no costume parties.

I my quest for trophies I found that most store bought trophies were pretty boring. Then I saw this awesome idea at dollar store crafts:

We don't need as many categories but this is the first year we're doing the contest, so maybe next yer we'll need more. I only did scariest, funniest, and most creative.
