SO excited and SO knowing some of the people will be more “horror” than me lol. So here is to learning new things and actually having a blast freaking people out!!!

Here’s the third character in our Wizard Of Oz series. This was by far the most detailed and super fun! The cowardly lion was always my favorite. He was hiLARious!!!! The song he sings is by far one of my family’s favorites. Enjoy and Happy Halloween!!!
I am SO excited to do the Wizard Of Oz this year for Halloween. It is just so perfect that I have two boys, a hubby, then ME ; D lol. I am wanting to do all of the looks this year so here is the second in my series. The Scarecrow. I am super pleased with this look (seeing as I had from start to clean up 45 min to be at my son’s school!). Had I had more time, I would have for SURE done some highlighting with white or cream around the dark lines that I made. I also think that I would have cut smaller squares of burlap and overlapped them to make a diamond shaped pattern on my cheeks. Other than that, I loved it =). Doing the Cowardly Lion as we speak….I mean, the kiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnng Ha!
I aDORE the wizard Of Oz! I am an old soul to begin with so I love the charm and memory that old movies and old movie stars evoke. I watched every musical I could growing up and had a fascination with the stories that were “behind the scenes”. My dad and his brothers are all movie buffs and I would LOVE sitting and listening to them tell stories about the interesting, little known facts about all the movie stars that I dreamed of being and the movies I would have died to be in. I used to get up and tap with Gene, twirl with Ginger, slink around with Cyd and bop with Ann Miller. I just loved them all! I crave the fashions from back then, I want singing and dancing in movies to come back to poularity (no I don’t mean like High School Musical or remakes of classics). I mean all kids are put in dance and voice lessons if they want to get into the business =D. I digress….were any of you TOTALLY and completely freaked out by Margaret Hamilton as the wicked witch????? I was TERRIFIED of her and would hide behind the t.v. every time she came on. LOL even now when me and the boys watch it I get the chills when she came on {shudder}. Not withstanding the Springer family has decided to be all things Oz this year for Halloween and I could NOT be more excited!!!!!!! I can just see it in my mind and I really hope I haven’t built it up too much in my mind. I am literally giddy about being Dorothy. My sweet mama was her years ago and made the costume I get to wear. That alone makes my heart melt a little =). I’ve ordered the boys costumes online this year instead of piecing them together. Older boy will be the tin man and the younger wants to be the scarecrow. That leaves the cowardly lion for the hubs (he’s sooooo enthused about the idea…insert all my sarcasm there!). But he will do it cuz he loves me and doesn’t want to break my heart =D. I am trying to get his costume done but I can’t find ANYthing!!!! He said he would totally wear the lion head piece that Luna Lovegood wore in Harry Potter but how can I find THAT???? I’ve Googled it but I’m not spending that kind of money = /. I would like to do all of the characters form the Wizard Of Oz so here is the first. The Tin Man!!!! I do two separate chins so pick your fave (you could say this tutorial comes with a double chin ha!). I know bad joke, but enjoy and Happy Halloween!!!
The beautiful princess Snow White is known far and wide for her kindess, charm her beautiful snow white skin and ebony black hair. I was asked to dress up as this iconic Disney princess for a little girl’s birthday party last week. I thought I might share how I got ready. I am scheduled to do this again next week and think I might have to reference my own video =). Hope that you enjoy it!
LOL so I totally found this on my memory card about a week ago. I was asked to do the Grinch’s makeup for a Christmas party and had to practice. I figured the best way to see what I liked and what I didn’t would be to film said “practice”. There are quite a few things that I liked and for SURE some things I ended up not doing. No masks were allowed at the party and the guy playing the Grinch thought I was just going to do a few freckles on him. Little did he know….hee hee hee. So here I am in all of my Grinch glory. My camera died on me toward the end so it cuts off before I finish but I put some pictures in there of the final product. Hope you guys enjoy!!! BTW, what are you doing for Valentines Day???
Here’s the guy that played the Grinch. He did an awesome job and never broke character! =)
