Kimpie, I bought mine from Fire Mountain Gems and received them in three days after placing my order. I was not able to find ANY place in Ohio or Michigan that sold these pins in store, so I opted for the online route. You can get them at the link below... Stick Pin Findings - Fire Mountain...

The first photo made me LOL when I noticed the girl in the background on the right pulling the spider web off her butt. However, you still look brilliant as always Chad :) That Jack Frost is BEYOND amazing!!! I love the snowy effect he gave the clothes!

I had a bunch of hair leftover from my wig when I thinned it down, so I just cut some small bunches of hair from those strands and fixed the hairs in place with spirit gum. After that I cut and styled and set with hairspray :)

My final photo contribution to the thread... many thanks to EVERYONE who shared valuable information here so I could complete my costume. I'm also thankful for all the AWESOME friends I made along the way :) I managed to get a best costume win and a second place win in at a local Halloween...

Wore my costume out for the first time yesterday to a costume contest at a local corn maze. Happy to say I won most original for the adults, and I also won the over all best costume. Got some cash, a trophy and I was stopped for a TON of photos :) Gonna don the Hatter persona again tomorrow...

found these new Mad Hatter lenses while digging around online last night... Mad Hatter Contact Lenses (as low as $ 29.99) at 1-800-GET-LENS ® I also finished my costume... not screen accurate in the least but I didn't have much money to work with this year so I just altered some items I...

This is what mine looks like... it was 6 bucks They are usually on a tower close to the register that is filled with nothing but make-up. They come in long trays like this one with smaller wells of eyeshadow and larger trays that are round with bigger eye shadow wells.

That's the same palette I'm using too! Seems to be a popular choice, but it does have the EXACT colors in it, so it works well. I'm using Mehron clown white since I have a good amount left from my Joker costume days. It always makes my skin nice and soft after wearing it awhile, so that's an...

This is what I used, but I extended the top length to four inches so I could fold the tops over, trimming later to the desired length :) I frayed the edges up a bit though instead of hemming the gloves, and this is what mine look like :)

I've accidentally got fabric glue all over my coat while gluing on trim and what not and it does give it a nice worn look. However, I want to weather it more without wasting my fabric glue, so would regular school glue do the trick since it dries clear?

Seems Hot Topic is also selling a Mad Hatter jacket to go along with all of the other Mad Hatter items they're selling this Halloween. I might just pick me up one of these for my winter coat! LOL Jackets | Apparel

It doesn't look too bad, but it would have been better if the brown would have been a dark green instead. If I didn't already have a hat, I'd probably grab that one and alter it. LOL ETA - finally finished the FINAL version of my hat (hat to rebuild it after it was crushed) and I also...

Actually, you might have a chance with the vinyl as I've used non-stretchy fabric while hat making with the threadbanger tutorial. The only change I made was using a lampshade re-covering tutorial to get the right shape to the fabric so it will lay right on the foundation. This is the one I...

Thanks for the great how-to Chad :) Already planned on gluing my eyebrows down with the glue-stick but thankful for the explanation on how to make the eyebrows from the wig. I'm glad there is a lot of extra to my wig as well so I can remove a strip of the hair without worry it will be noticeable.

second round of hat making... this one is for Jodo :) brim needs some minor reshaping after it dries... didn't want to mess with it too much while it was still tacky to the touch.
