Attention!
Hello darlings. As some of you may know, I have been costuming for several years. I have made cosplays and reenactment clothing for people, including Askkayleefrye.
Recently, I decided that I want to open my own custom costume business with my mom (who has been sewing even longer than I). We are very excited about this and hope to make it a reality very soon.
However, starting a business does take quite a bit of money. We are starting small and will be running it out of my mom’s house so we do not have to rent a building space.
Currently, we are trying to raise the money on Indiegogo. We have only a month left in which to reach our goal. If we do reach it, Indiegogo does not get to keep as large of a portion of our money. The goal amount is $2,500. To show where this money would be going, here is the break down of the costs to start out:
- $300 pays for incorpation of the name
- $300 for a new dress form
- $400 for costs for a booth at New York Comic Con
- $400 for marketing costs (advertisements and business cards)
- $500 for a serger machine
- $600 for an embroidery machine
There are perks for each level of donation.
- $10- Custom fandom necklace from the fandom of your choice. It can also be hobbies, or something other than a fandom. No two necklaces will be alike.
- $30- Necklace and a handmade thank you card from the company.
- $50- Necklace and a custom circle skirt. If you are not a skirt wearer, I can discuss other options.
- $100- 25% off coupon for a costume.
- $200- 35% off coupon.
- $500- 50% off coupon, necklace, card, and additional 25% off for another costume or to give to a friend! You will also be the featured client on a poster for our next 3 conventions.
All contributors will get their name listed on our website, which is currently in progress.
Our page on Indiegogo can be found here with more information and photos-

Thank you so much and I apologize profusely for making such a long post. <3
Reblogging to spread the word! Good cosplay can be hard to come by sometimes.
This was a man, dressed as a plant, making pigeon noises at people walking by. I said hello, asked if it was okay to take his picture, and then asked why he was dressed as a plant. He said, “I’m just working through some stuff. Thank you for asking. No ones asked yet.”
I’ve been dealing with stuff the wrong way.
me too

Rule #1 of Tumblr:
you must reblog our creator whenever he comes up on your dash
david karp looks through the notes of this post, puts all the urls he sees onto the safe list, then deletes the rest of the blogs. reblogging this post is like when the jews put the lamb’s blood on their doorposts so the angel of death wouldn’t kill their firstborns.
Must reblog for that comment
That comment, my God..
Am I the only that notices that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is there as well?
Joooooooooooooooooooooeeeeeeeee <3

Madonna is 55 and her boyfriend is 22
Jennifer Lopez is 43 and her boyfriend is 26
Mariah Carey is 44 and her boyfriend is 32
If you’re not dating anyone, don’t worry about it, maybe he wasn’t born yet.

If you don’t get this reference, you’re too young for tumblr.
are you fucking kidding me pixar puts out a movie ever year a baby would get this reference
it’s not pixar it’s a reference to that time in 1994 when lamps became sentient humanoids
many were lost that day
It was a grim day for mankind. My parents took refuge in a cave and thus saved us from certain death; we lived close to a lamp factory at the time and the surrounding region was utterly devastated in the conflict.
My brother fought one off using only an egg whisk and a pogo stick.
Only 90s kids remember the Lampocalypse
My father still has the scars from where one stole his kidney
Ironically, it was a dark time.

psdo:
The innovative Nike Studio Wrap Pack was designed to help you make the most of workouts typically done in bare feet, including Nike Training Club Toned, yoga, dance and barre. Made up of a wrap, a ribbon and a flat, this three-part footwear system combines a barefoot feel with protection, traction, support and style.
Oh my god they’re adorable?!?!
so …. I would wear the shit out of these as street shoes (the little flats that slip over the top!!) and I think that they would actually potentially feel pretty decent on my fucked-up foot.
I’M GONNA INVESTIGATE!!
…these could help me with my fucked up feet, ohhhh do want.
Definitely do want.
this just happened on my dash and i’m dying laughing.
THIS IS JUST TOO PERFECT

Best post
Also, Lily Potter would have never wanted an abortion, because she was a financially well-off woman starting a family in a happy marriage with a secure place at the top of wizarding society.
The question you should be asking is what if Merope Gaunt, an impoverished and uneducated single woman who escaped from a severely abusive family only to become pregnant with the unwanted child of a man who wanted nothing to do with her, had had access to an abortion and not had immense social pressure brainwashing her into carrying to term?
it got better
