Well isn't she a sassy little thing? Thanks so much for the information. I had not heard of this one at all. I will Google it to get more info and find where to purchase!

We went to the craft store last night… We bought supplies. We'll see how the dry run goes tonight. Hopefully my hubby's "vision" will come to fruition. I think Lexi's going to be a mummy instead of Cleopatra.
Stay tuned... -
Okay, don't judge us yet!! We're fitting Miles into the pattern piece we constructed… lol... It looks awful right now, but it has potential!!
Just wait until we're done!!

OK - won't judge, but what a good sport he is being. Are those things around Miles' legs - Reflectors??? Really cool!
As I reply here, Duke and Daisy are at a "hilt" with an arguement - gotta go!
-
ha! Reflectors?! No, that was just computer paper and magic marker. The first cuff I made looked like a Swedish flag… So I colored a bunch of different kinds. Then I found some hieroglyphics- we're going to spell out his name in glue with hieroglyphics on the cuffs and then spray paint over them so it just looks raised. Hubby made the foam headpiece last night. One of the key elements is making sure the collar piece will hold the upper head piece in place. Even though this is King Tut (and we're making Anubis), here are some pictures we're using for reference:

Okay… more developments... Here's the foam version. I think we are going to elongate the collar. And of course it has to be spray painted with gold stripes. And we have to do the bangles on his legs... but it's coming along.
-
More developments:
Jewels are in place… Still need to add the cobra head (hubby sculpted out of putty) and his wristbands (still drying) but...
-
Miles really is being a good sport! You and you hubby have done a great job, BDawg! Miles looks very regal and handsome!
Stormie is going to be a skunk! lol! I ordered the costume last week - should be here soon! -
Miles is so stoic. I thought for sure he'd tolerate a head piece more than Lexi. And he does. But we built the costume to accommodate him. We made she he could move his head and his ears weren't being pinned down (what we thought would be his biggest complaint ;)) We're working on wrapping Lexi up as a mummy right now. We got this special muslin cloth and tore it into strips. Now we're playing with different ways to wrap her to make sure she can still move and to avoid any "marks" on her costume when she goes to the bathroom. :eek:
-
Stormie the skunk… how cute is that?! I love your big guy!!
-
Here's Lexi…
lol...
-
BDawg (& hubby), I bow in your general direction! They are both adorable!!
-
Oh! Just wait until you see the cobra piece! It totally makes the head dress!! We cut sequins to form the snake's eyes and even put jewels on the cobra's back! It looks awesome! And the wristbands look great too!!
Can't wait for them to finish drying! -
WOW that is AMAZING
-
Here's to my "kids"… the incredibly cute furrybabies who let me do whatever I want to them. What little angels...
(And right in the middle of naptime too! For once, Lexi was more interested in snoozing than being photographed!)
