Haha thanks 8D I was trying! I changed the mouth like 7 times trying to decide which one was scarier.
See, I don't even pay attention to bead sizes. I just buy shiny stuff in the store and work out if I can use it later XD

You nailed it clowns are terrible
You're really bad. Like me and cross stitching, I don't even know how to do it then I see something at the store and I'm like "pretty!" in the shopping cart. It drives my mom nuts.

Ah, I should go and make a more Halloween appropriate avi, too!
jacob, it turned out very lovely :)
What were you planning on wearing with it? A snow queen should be doable with some white or light blue clothes and a bit of cheap winter decoration like fake icicles or something that you drape around you as a low budget option, no?
Twilightmist, welcome to the thread!
demona, holding my thumbs for you that you and your sister can go for the pottery again soon! Also, wow, 5 kids o.O My sister has three and that already feels like a lot to me.
Selling at some market you like to go to anyway does sound like fun :)

The lots of different types of fabric I have sitting going to waste because I have no plan at all for what to do with agree XD
I bought some stuff and it actually arrived already, which was insanely quick considering I went for free standard shipping haha. I have this white and silver flapper-style dress with fringing and sequins, which looks a bit like shiny icy stuff if you squint. Also I got a long white velvet cape, although it STINKS and it's very very thin and cheap (lol cheap imports). I'm hoping it survives the washing machine because I definitely can't wear it if the smell doesn't come out. It smells like... manufacturing? Like chemicals and stuff. Not nice.
Also I have a plastic crown which I also ordered but which hasn't got here yet. It's all icicle-y so that will fit. And I already have pale lilac tights which I will wear for the impression of being very cold.
Finally, I also already practised my makeup: white foundation base, blue/pale blue/light purple accents, with some silver glitter. So I hope it will be Snow Queen-ish enough haha.
Also next year I can be a zombie flapper or something and reuse the dress :'D I already have some flapper accessories like a headband that I got free somewhere. It all works out I guess haha. And if it doesn't look great in the end I might see if I can return it all after Halloween XD

Cool, congrats on getting started mona!
That pattern looks really cool, but also like a lot of work!
Jacob, that sounds pretty good :)
I hope the crown arrived /will arrive in time!
