Autumn is my favorite season. I love the changing light, the changing leaves, and the glorious colors of fall. I also love the fact that my business kicks into hyperdrive this time of year.
The pace can get a little (read: incredibly) intense, but I really enjoy it. My customers are amazingly creative people, and I have so much fun helping them to actualize their costuming ideas! Every year, I am blown away by the bizarre, clever, beautiful and amusing ways that people incorporate my masks into their costumes. In doing so, they create new persona (or reveal hidden ones) tell stories and incite mischief. Simply put, they create magic 🙂
This year, I thought it would be fun to share a bit of that magic, so I’m celebrating my incredible customers with a virtual costume contest. The winning contestant will receive a $50 gift certificate to my Etsy shop. You can enter any time from October 1st – 31st, and the winner will be announced on November 15th. Hop on over to my website for entry details — and please consider joining in my little celebration! 🙂
cool idea – it will be fun to see the entries.
I hope it GETS entries … the announcement on FB seemed to go over like a lead balloon 😛 We’ll see — I really hope that lots of people enter. My customers have such great costume ideas, and I’d love to see (and share) more of them!
Ooooh, what a lovely idea! I’m planning to wear your mask after Halloween for FaerieCon, though so I may have to do a test run instead.
Please do! 🙂
