oh hey, i follow your bento blog, but never knew you had a livejournal. now curious about how this cosplay costume turned out..

aww, drat. you have noone that you can poke for advice?

[chibibecca]

don't get rid of it, it looks good! i'm sure you can find a way of fixing it in the future. ^^

and if worst comes to the worst, you have good costume materials for your kids for conventions/halloween/dress up as a book character days at school. :p
