Update: 2014/Health/Cosplay/10,000+ Pageviews!WOW. Geez. Looooooong time, no journal entry!!!!! Where on earth shall I begin... Well, first off, Happy New Year, everyone! I sure hope that everybody has been/is enjoying the holiday season. I sure am, although things have been rather different and interesting, to say the least. I’ve been away from home for the majority of this month, receiving treatment for an illness that I was diagnosed with earlier this year. I am doing somewhat better, but my health concerns are the reason why I haven’t been very active on the internet, and also why I can’t make any promises for 2014 cosplay/convention plans at this time. I need to focus on gaining my life back so that I will be given the approval to cosplay again, among other things that I love and miss! But truuuuust me, I’m already daydreaming of costumes that I’d absolutely love to complete sometime during the new year!
I’d also like to take a moment to say, oh my. What. How even. Over 10,000 page views?!

I love the headband and your excellent at braids and have an excellent costume and Astrid costumes are hard to find.
Can you give us a tutorial on this or can I add you on FB so we can talk more with me being a new cosplayer.

SMMB25 In reply to kaleso [2014-01-05 01:34:05 +0000 UTC]

cool! Was it hard an expensive? Because I want to make my own costumes (probably not Astrid since I don't look good in blond hair, but maybe Katniss.) and I can't spend too much on it.

Nice job on the costumes by the way!

kaleso In reply to SMMB25 [2014-01-05 17:56:22 +0000 UTC]

Haha, yeah, both. ^_^; Unfortunately, most cosplays, when you put a lot of effort into them, are hard and expensive. But if it ends up being something that you find you enjoy, it's not only fun but very worthwhile! Katniss sounds like a great costume to start off with! When I find that I'm tight on money, I always make a trip to Goodwill or other thrift stores to search for pieces that I can use for a cosplay. And when I go shopping for fabric, I never go without coupons. I understand what it's like not to have much money to put into cosplay, so I always try my best to be thrifty!


Thank you so much! If you ever have any cosplay questions at all, don't hesitate to ask! ^_^

Thanks! I love thrift store so I guess I can look around there.... hhmmm... I never thought about coupons thanks haha. 

I probably will because I know nothing about it really hahaha. My costumes have always been just for halloween (Xena, and Rapunzal) but I would like to wear them other places for fun.
