We’ve been hemming and hawing about dressing up over here. But around 3:30, I finally decided to go for it, in the most dorky crafty way. I fashioned myself a little gnome costume– easy peasy, just a sewn felt cone (extra points for trim!) and a last minute crocheted beard and eye brows–affixed with scotch tape, for however long that lasts. For the rest, I’m just wearing the colorful gnome-like clothes I already have: red cords and a teal shirt.

Hah, you may think this is a lame last minute costume but wait–

my facial hair glows in the dark!! Via Bernat Glow in the Dark yarn. I bought a skein about a month ago and I just knew I had to do something with it for Halloween. Yay. At least I ought to get a few laughs out of this!

p.s. I also made these peanut butter crispy bars for this night’s festivities and oh. my. god.
