Scarlet Witch revamp




This Scarlet was of my own design. I wanted something comfortable. Plus going to SDCC wearing a cape isn't fun. I wish I had done underwear rather than shorts, but it was nice to have pockets.

Cost
Shorts: $10 generic store
Shoes: $30 Ebay
Leather cuffs: $15 event
Top: $7 generic store
Jacket: $30 ebay 
Fabric Paint: $5

total: $97 give or take

Bottoms - Shorts were originally pants made into cut offs
Jacket- Originally a large mens jacket, my friend Michele helped me take it in after I chopped the arms off. And I painted the back with black fabric paint.

Harry Potter Wands!

     So, I saw this epic tutorial HERE and gave it a shot. I made these wands for a Harry Potter gift exchange on reddit :] Supplies: Glue gun, chop sticks (longer the better), beads, brown acrylic paint (more than one shade), and a acrylic pain top coat.
     Top wand's end has a cool texture to it. I used beads in the glue and popped them out after the glue cooled. the beads left little round crevasses that gave a neat texture. The bottom wand has beads still in it. Giving it the bubbly look. Everything else is just hot glue. :]
