Alright costumers! Halloween is a few short weeks away. This is your thread to ask quick questions and give advice.

Some other resources you may find helpful:

• The good folks over on r/sewing are very knowledgeable about all the ins and out of, well, sewing
• r/cosplay can help if you're looking for help with character costumes
• r/Halloween has cool tips and tricks, as well
• Google is your best friend! Use it to search for people who have made similar costumes to your idea, to find tutorials on making props, and all sorts of other good stuff!
• Your local fabric store. Employees there are often happy to help you find the best materials to make a great look.

Ugh. It's so depressing, this is the second year in a row I haven't had any Halloween plans or any enthusiasm to work on a costume. Covid has destroyed it all.

I want to make a homemade Nic Cage "not the bees!" costume. Any ideas on what to make the head piece out of?
