I have a bit of a problem...

[Chania]

My Spidey suit is all sewn up and pretty much rdy to go. I have 3 events I'm wearing it for, 1 for trick or treating around the block, the next night at my kid's Karate class, and on Saturday for the bar party.

My issue is: I haven't gotten the lenses yet.. Anyone have a brilliant solution that will tide me over till they arrive? Maybe some Walmart mask I can cut up for some temporary lenses? Help!

I did my lens in about 1 hour. Check my thread http://www.therpf.com/f24/spiderman-wip-suit-up-well-almost-155619/.
Hope it helps

Here's a couple quick ideas:
-Find a pair of cheap mirrored sunglasses and either wear them underneath the mask, or pop out the lenses and attach them inside.
-find a cheap mask with eyes and swap them into your mask, or find a full-head/face hood and use the see-through cloth in the eyes
-leave the hood off, and go as Spider-Man: Unmasked! (maybe add some cuts and bruises to your face, as if you got beat up and your mask ripped off)

Best of luck!

Thanks for the ideas! I ended up buying a cheap pair of sunglasses and cutting and shaping them with a grinder. If I have time I'll chop up the grill from an old set of crappy desktop speakers for the honeycomb effect. I hope the real lenses make it in time for Saturday

Wow. I love that idea! I wish I was in this dilemma just so I can pull that off. :lol
