It took me weeks to finally decide what to dress up as for Halloween... Madeline (sans the red hair. I had a wig, but it was a disaster trying to put that thing on.) I literally came up with this idea yesterday morning and sewed up (and patterned) my costume last night. I'm quite proud of myself. Clearly, I work well under pressure. Madeline was one of my favorite shows to watch as a little girl. Looking back, I wish I had the books. It would be a delight to come across vintage copies of the book series. I tried to convince the hubby to dress up as the little rascal, Pepito, but he refused. Instead he opted for a Geek-chic look.
During Halloween, Maui is known for being the "Mardi Gras of the Pacific". Year's pass, tens of thousands of people would frolic to Lahaina town and join in on the
I hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween. What did you dress up as?
