Ok I'm back and alive! I had a fantastic time, but man, was I tired. Also it was my birthday yesterday, so I just took a slow, chill day. Cleaning up all the crafting chaos, doing laundry, all of that good stuff.

I didn't take any good photos of my white lily cosplay during the weekend, so here's the bad mirror selfie I took with the fiance - try to ignore my face, apparently I was VERY focussed on the camera 😂

We had a fantastic time, we gave out so many fortune cookies snd as always it was just great to see people get excited about a more niche cosplay.

Improvements I need to make:

- figure out a way to get the hem to keep the shape I want. First I'll remove the aluminium wire and try steel. If that doesn't work maybe some weird janky hoopskirt kind of thing?

- add more beads

- add some boning to the back. I thought I could get away without any but nope, the back keeps drooping down

- add a hook+eye at the back, above the zipper. It feels very big at the top and keeps sliding down, maybe keeping it together with a hook+eye will help

- if that doesn't help and it keeps sliding down, take in the side a bit

- properly style the wig. I couldn't be bothered to rush out more before we left, so I only styled the bangs, braided the rest and called it a day

- finish the headdress, for now it's just a flower hairclip, she still needs the green strings

- make the staff!

So yes, still lots to do, but she's wearable. And I'll probably take a little break on working on her, bc I need to draw a bunch of secret witch art in the next week or two. So probably not a lot of updates bc I can't show anything

Making my Blair Cosplay part 3:

This is just a small update since I haven't posted anything in a bit! But I just finished cutting out all the pattern pieces for the dress!

On another note, updates on this may be a bit slower and/or shorter for the next few weeks. Since school has started back up again, I'm doing my Field Experience on MWF mornings before I go to work and my T/Th are booked from 8-8. So I'll only be able to mentally and physically work on this in small increments for the next 3-4 weeks! 😭😭 I'll keep y'all posted tho when I make a bigger chunk of progress and I'll start reblogging more art and writing throughout the week!

(Ignore the Food Wars playing in the background lol) Miruko’s Bunny Ears progress!!!! I used craft foam as the base for the ears, shaping them to be kind of zig zaggy like hers in canon. Then I took fur trim from a coat (using a blade to cut the stitching carefully) and hot glued it to the foam base I made. The fur is a lot heavier than I thought so I might add wiring to the center to hold it up. So far so good! I just need to trim some of the fur and make it look nicer but yeah this is basically what I’m doing! 🤗🤗🤗
