| the robe and the mask |
I will be moving house soon but slowly, and the first things I've been taking to the new flat are my cosplay costumes, as I don'tneed them on a daily basis, and can store them neatly in garment bags on a wheeled rack. While I was checking them to take, I noticed that the Sakura Robe was very dirty around the neck! So, I washed it with my newly bought garment washing nets. I can vouch for those things, they're perfect for more delicate garments and fabrics, as they don't get messy and wrinkly inside the bags. So, I also washed it, because I'll be taking it to IberAnime in two weeks. I also made a face mask from the same fabric, and I really wish I would find the fabric paints until then, to add to the mask and add more sakuras to the robe, as they're really sparse now.
I'm not really in the mood to go to IberAnime, but I should go because of the Doctorate investigation and also because I want to watch the Portuguese ECG competition, so I'm only going on Sunday. Still need to check the schedule too, because it's also my mom's birthday. I hope to have a bit of time to be with her.
Besides, since I went to Porto, my other Yuuko costume and the wig are balled up inside the bag... Need to start combing the wig, and hopefully manage to go to a mall to buy silicone spray, mine is almost out.
The plan is to put the make-up and part of the costume on here, but change to the rest, the wig and the robe, at the new flat. Start by making it cosplay central. Both flats aren't far apart, so, it's completely doable. Mental note, take a small mirror to the new flat, when I take the robe and the wig.
+ The hand painted sakuras didn't chip or fade. I was a bit worried because the fabric is very slippery.
- I'm really not in the mood to comb the wig, which is most likely like a rat's nest now...
THE CUNNING PLAN
Buy a garment bag for this costume (and a few others that currently don't have one), press it, take care of the wig, and take everything, plus a mirror, to the new flat.
