As I mentioned last year, I like to wear my skates at work on Hallowe'en and dress in a costume that incorporates them (Rolling Stones, Hell on Wheels, Holy Roller, etc.) (I just re-read that Holy Roller post and I cracked myself up -- I'm lame.)
Bill came up with the idea for this year's costume: Rolling pin. After wrestling with how to make myself look like a sewing pin or a bowling pin, he also thought of the perfect solution: a Personal Identification Number. You know? At the bank machine? You use a PIN?
So I ironed on a PIN to my chest, slapped on my skates and went as a "Rolling pin."
Heh.

There's the numbers. No photo of the full costume -- imagine a black shirt and a black skirt. And skates.
I used Avery Dark T-Shirt Transfers for the numbers. If you've never used them, they're pretty slick and definitely help out with costume makin'.

You two are so clever with the puns! Can't wait to see next year's roller costume.
ReplyDeleteNext year, be "On a Roll" and glue cinnamon rolls to the outside of your skates. Then, if you're hungry, you'll be traveling with a snack!!
