Costume Con coming home

Here I am in my hotel room, in Canada, trying to get everything I brought stuffed back into my suitcase. Wish me luck.

There are piles of clothes, shoes, wigs, purses and ...

sewing emergency kit, jewelry and in the bathroom ... MAKE UP.


And computer, camera, business cards and all the other stuff one needs while traveling.

Oh and I didn't tell you about my traveling companion here. 


One of the things I did yesterday was give a short fashion show of Simplicity Costumes.  All the models were volunteers.  I will share photos from this later this week. But, I was having trouble finding two kids for the two children's costumes I was bringing, so I decided to make a 3 foot tall stuffed muslin kid and bring him.  So, he was squished in my suitcase along with everything else, and now has to be squished BACK in.  Good thing he's very squish able.


Bye Costume Con ...

I can so relate to this. It got to be so comical at our Costume College convention that we started taking photos of our rooms and sharing them. And when there's 3 or 4 in the room, it's chaos. But so fun!
