It should also come as no surprise that in the ‘off season’ I spend a lot of time thinking about which costume I shall wear next and what I need to make it. This year I chose to make a griffin costume… enter mass quantities of fur, feathers and assorted yarn, lots and lots of…
I can’t seem to go without bringing my camera along so I decided to share some highlights. I’m sure more will follow as the weeks progress!
In an earlier post I mentioned a second costume that I wore for this years Renaissance Festival. Here it is! The second image is the mask that was worn with this costume.
