Indiana Jane.

Re: Indiana Janes.

Thank you guys.

Yeah...I'm not going for the screen accurate but try to get as close as possible. Indeed she is Indiana Janes and he is Short Round just for Halloween.

"Short Round" is only 4. So I figured that is the best costume for him to accompany his sister. The inner and outer jackets are modified from another normal clothes that I got from local thrift stores. I can show before and after pics if anybody interested.

Re: Indiana Janes.

Awesome stuff!

I am in awe of your reblocking of the hat.

Can you provide more details on the base hat you started with?

Re: Indiana Janes.

That's very cool. I'm thinking of doing something similar for the Halloween parades at the schools/daycares where my clients attend. I had a Jedi costume ready, but one of my kiddos is going as Obi-Wan and he'd be pretty mad if we ended up dressing alike.

Hector,

If you go to the beginning of this thread, I pretty much documented step by step on how I reblocked the hat with pics. The original hat was just a regular old cowboy hat that I found at a local thrift store. I like the color and it fits perfectly on her.

Long story short....took the liner and old ribbon off, slide it on a bucket and soak it really good. Then let it completely dry.
I trimmed the brim and sand it smooth. Restiched the liner back on and a new ribbon with a cross-grain ribbon. I spray the crown with "Karl hat stiffener" and let it dry over night. Then I use steam and cloth pins to rebash the hat.

Just let me know if have any further questions.
 
OUTSTANDING!!!!!

Beautiful work and with the best intentions at heart.
I tip my cowl to you Sir!

Those are memories they will always remember.

All the best to you and the family,
Chuck...
