Crafting Con Guest Post

August 19, 2015

I love to do costumes, so I stepped up when Crafting Con was asking for guest posters.  The concept is making clothes that are wearable “costumes”, but not too over the top where it looks like a costume.

Get it?

The theme this month is 80’s movies, so I did a google search to refresh my memories of the pool of movies from my youth. There were lots of options.

I could do a Tom Cruise outfit for the Boy from Top Gun.

I could maybe do a Molly Ringwald inspired costume from one of the movies like Pretty in Pink.

In the end…The Dark Crystal came up as an 80’s movie. So…Kira the Gelfling (elf)!
