Bright Idea

This is the kid's Halloween costume - quite a production, let me tell you...

And here's the rig:


What you can't see is the metal construct (coat hangers, reshaped) that supports the glow sticks. The faux tungsten filament was sewn on in numerous spots, very messily. And those jeans are actually a shade of gold!

You have to trust me, it was quite something on the trick or treat circuit.

    Oh, wow! My mind is blown by this. Whose bright idea was this? (Sorry. I tried so hard to resist the pun. Please still be my friend.)

    That's original. It gets some serious creative points from me. I think our most surprising was the "keep on shuffling" box complete with the blinking lights. It didn't mean anything to me but my husband got it. So then he had to show me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx0LBLA3ROQ&feature=related so I'd get the costume.

    Thank you everyone! M would like you to know how pleased she is that you approve. And Scott would like you to know that he was the mastermind of the costume - which is true. I was the seamstress helper extraordinaire :-)
