    Once I made a pair of wings like those, though they suffered my jedi-cousin's wrath and died ;O;

    Yay Frickin Fairy Wings!!! Good lord that was great, the best part of this episode were the 2 of you and the Trick or Treat set up and payoffs at the start and end. LOVED IT...got a great laugh and MAN, those wings looked Sweeeeet...if I wasnt going as a mutated alien Ghostbuster, I might have figured out a way to incorporate wings like that into a different costume. But I think my wife is doing a fairy-thing, so she might totally dig this weeks lesson! Thanks guys...

    I love how the Sound Effect of the Fairy Wand is the same as the "NO AIR" graphic turning on...as if we werent clever enough to notice! (wink). And I like Corinne's technique of the 1st time knocking on one side of the door, then when she returned knocking on the other...clearly I've watched this episode one too many times. But damn...it was great!

    I wish I woulda seen this two days ago.. I was being total lazy, got a victorian witch costum for myself but 40% off at Joann's. Those wings are a great Idea. I'll make my daughter some to wear while she plays...

    now i know what my halloween custom is gonna be!! =D

    Also works well with white or very shear nude nylons, you do need to be careful stretching them. I think the ones that are close to invisible look the neatest. Another thing I learned at the Ren Faire.

  • Amy wrote on October 8, 9:17 pm

    HELP!! My friends and i are going to be the seven dwarfs for halloween, but finding those little dwarf/elf/gnome hats are rather difficult. So i was wondering if there was a simple quick way to make them? I also am in need of the little shoes they wear. If you could help, i would be veryyyy happy!

  • Justinsuperstar wrote on October 9, 2:54 pm

    Suchhh a cool episode guys - you did a great job really making this thing look nimble and magical.

    Hmm my Fairy, Mummy Pirate costume I've always DREAMED OF! haha, just kidding.

  • quilty01 wrote on October 24, 11:13 am

    This is brilliant! My daughter was thinking of being a dark angel so this will be perfect with some black feathers or a feather boa sewn around the edges.... Glad I stumbled across this site as I was cruising the web for costume ideas! Thanks Corinne!
