Costumes for Sale
I am such a sporadic blogger that I don’t know if anyone is even still reading along. However, I am selling off some of the sample pieces I’ve featured here, and I wanted to spread the word to anyone still following. Time to clean out the closets and make room for new projects!
NOTE: Most of these are prototype garments and may be slightly flawed. All garments have been worn 2-5 times. I’m happy to discuss details if you have any questions/concerns. All sales final.
