Harry Potter Cosplay: Hermoine Granger!

 Harry Potter Cosplay: Hermoine Granger!   Okay, there's a lot of variety with Ms. Granger. If you have bangs--you might go with the young version...bangs and lots of curls.  Or older with more tame hair!  Here's how we did the Gryffindor Robes: I used my favorite Robe pattern Simplicity 5840...and cut a rounded hood instead of a pointy one. Seriously, this pattern is worth it!  You can pick it up from Amazon too! I cut a red lining for the hood only and sewed it up. It takes about 2 hours of sewing to get it all together. See more details on this post Here's the funny backstory: I was majorly into making robes about 8-9 years ago...I made 100's. I bought every single bolt of black or brown material on the $1 a yard rack at Walmart... and they don't even have that rack anymore! I cut out this pattern so many times...until I wore myself out!

Doctor WHO week! I Heart Heart The Doctor Tie Dye Shirt!

  I Heart Heart The Doctor Tie Dye Shirt! Don't you love Doctor Who week!? I'm always surprised how many great ideas I have!  Haha!  Combine hippie tie dye with your favorite time traveling medical care provider! First you will need to make the heart heart tie dye shirt! You will need a White cotton shirt and Tulip's one-step tie dye kit. Wash the shirt in hot water. While it's still wet, fold in half. Draw a heart on the front with a washable marker. Scrunch up the shirt so the heart line all lines up in one continuous line. Secure it with a rubber band. **You can read here for more tie dying tips ** Place on a baking sheet and covered table. load up the shirt with dye! Let the shirt sit in a plastic bag for 6-8 hours. Then rinse completely until the water runs clear. Then wash in a regular cycle...then dry. Next cut out some vinyl. I got the GREATEST vinyl from SiserNA! They sent me a sample pack in exchange for this review....
