Halloween 2014 preview

This is the first year I made the costumes for my kids, guys! I did everyone's except for the little cowgirl coz she really wanted this from the Disney store...sigh....
Can you guess which characters they are?

Took them to a Halloween bash over the weekend. Didn't stay too long, as everyone was sniffing and hacking (including me)....



For my eldest's costume, we went to a thrift store and bought a plain jacket and pants. I hand-sewed the character badge on the jacket (badge from Etsy), and also hand-sewed the pants's accoutrements (materials from a fabric store).
I knitted the vest and gloves for my middle child's costume, and also knitted this hat for my costume. Can you guess who I'm gonna be? Heehee
Are you excited for Halloween?

I have no idea who your oldest son is suppose to be

it's obvious you got the Sherlock hat, your other son is Ash Ketchum (pokemon), and your daughter is Jessie (Toy Story 2 and 3)

 If you've been reading my blog for the past few months, then you know my love for Alabama Chanin. Here's the newest addition to my wardrobe. :) Alabama Chanin Flora Waffle Sweatshirt, worn with North Face jacket, UNIQLO pants, and Vans sneakers The organic waffle knit fabric is naturally dyed using Sappanwood sawdust, and the foliage design is hand-painted! What I love about Alabama Chanin is that many of their pieces are one-of-a-kind. PS It was my eldest's birthday when these pics were taken:) How was your weekend? Any new purchases lately?

Here are some recent shots taken with my Pentax K1000 film camera. I decided to mail my films and have them developed at Downtown Camera , and oh my gosh, you guys! Such a big difference with how they turned out. So so happy, and will be sending all my 35mm films to them from now on. (All these shots were how they were sent to me...no editing. Used Fujifilm ISO200 films.)
