Yup. Most everything looks easy and cheap until you try it yourself...or unless you're satisfied with cheap, shoddy construction. Most things in stores are mass produced, and yep, those will be often be cheaper than something done by a human being.
It's a pain to do it but you'll feel better now as (if you're like me) you would always be seeing that off-center lettering and ignoring all the other beautiful work you've done if you hadn't fixed it.
Really nice job!
My Halloween crafts as they appeared at the Columbia County Fair.
What a great costume! Your son must be very happy with it as that looks just like the original. Handmade costumes are so much better than the store ones. Even when my kids were at the age to wear costumes, the manufactured ones were really flimsy without the price reflecting that. The handmade costumes will last for years and can be passed along unlike the store-bought ones.
I missed this until just now. Very nice job! Makes me wish once again that I had that kind of artistic talent.
Awesome! Thats really cool!Here's my daughter in her Maleficent costume. I made the horns, cape, choker and scepter.

Ahhhhhh .....no fair.......posting pictures of hats when there is a hat addict in the group! Did you overcraft them? Ahem.....like.....any extras laying about? They look really cool!Well... If you're only going to charge $85, I would gladly buy a couple
When hubby was welding, I used to make him welding caps (like baseball caps only fitted without the plastic strap and made of sturdy 100% cotton so they could be thrown in the washing machine often). Sometimes other welders would ask him if they could buy caps from me but the dang things took me an entire day to make and nobody in their right mind is going to spend more than $10 on a welding cap lol.
(Pic of a couple caps I made)

Those were the only two that survived. I had made them for my parents - the ones I made for hubby had gone through the washing machine so often, they were too frayed to keep.
I have a bowtie pattern to try out. I love bowties (thanks Tom and hubby). And there is such great fabric out there, prints and such to make some really awesome ones.Lol! Thanks
Hats and bow ties are cool! I wish hats would come back into style. I guess I'm a bit of a hat addict too - I even crocheted a cowboy hat lol. I was crocheting a potholder one day and kept thinking, "This could be the top of a hat" and before I knew it, my potholder had become a cowboy hat
...only if I get pics.....love a woman in a tie.....
Winner for the most incongruous sentence on the SKMB for 2016!Lol! Thanks

On behalf of all the crafters/SK fans on this thread who love a bit of incongruity, I accept the honor Within the pages of this thread, you will find lovely stained glass replicas of the picture that hangs over Homer Simpson's couch, a cross-stitched work of art depicting the Tardis wibble wobbling through Van Gogh's Starry Night, diapers with a biker motif, haunted doll houses, and many other wonderful items
Here you go no bounce no play. A sort of Best Of...Take photos of your culinary creations! I'd love to see them
