This year I decided to make my own costume which is nothing new, last year I made my own costume although it was very last minute and not too elaborate.
I just made a skirt with an long lace tail and applied an applique on it and made a scarf. Once I put on my mask, I was transformed into a peacock!
This year I am being a green pixie fairy girl inspired by tinkerbell. I am working on the last minute details tonight and am very excited to finish and wear it out. I used the tutorial from ThreadBanger to make the wings, I would recommend it, it is very easy to do!

As for now, I must get back to work but I will post some pictures of the finished costume soon.
Happy Halloween!
