Reminder: PROTECT YOUR EYES! Today I was disinfecting some contact cases & trashing all older lenses & I thought it was worth restating how important this is!! Never use lenses past their warning dates, always take them out before sleep, & if they hurt TAKE THEM OUT!! Talk to an eye doctor to make sure lenses are safe for your eye shape, don’t try to color or paint them (yes, cosplayers have tried), & stick to FDA approved lenses. Please educate yourself on their use, protect those peepers!! #contactlenses . . #cosplaytips https://www.instagram.com/p/CjeDG7HJB5E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thanks to the Mando Kercs Builders Group on Facebook, I got the tip that Target had these perfect boots for my build …and for only $14! Women’s Universal Thread Elle Boots. The app wouldn’t let me find them, but the desktop site could let you figure out inventory. Hopefully if you’re looking for shoes, these are VERY comfy and don’t have logos to cover up. #starwars #mandalorian #mandaloriancosplay #twilekmando #cosplay #starwarscosplay #cosplaytips #starwarsmandalorian #cosplaywip https://www.instagram.com/p/CalWJJqs1yj/?utm_medium=tumblr

Another cosplay tip: The secret is that most of the studs on my costumes/props are googly eyes 👀 they can be purchased for super cheap and easily spray painted if you place them onto the sticky side of tape so they don’t blow away! #cosplay #cosplaytips #cosplaytutorial #promptoargentum #promptocosplay #cosplayprop https://www.instagram.com/p/B4QHUA1B5Dc/?igshid=19yrzx8bbl8dh

Super simple rolled hem tutorial for you! I'm not the most experienced seamstress, but I'm self-taught and somehow manage! 😂 Wanted to share this for everyone who's asked for more sewing tips.⁣ ⁣ Mine ended up a bit wider than I wanted, closer to 3/16" when I intended 1/8". The fabric I used is a slippery Chiffon, and will be for a sheer tunic-dress- thing for Venusaur. Chiffon is a notoriously finicky and difficult to work with fabric, but sometimes that's what ya need for your cosplay!⁣ ⁣ A rolled hem is possibly the most standard way to hem this material. By using this hem, you encase the raw edges of the fabric entirely to prevent fraying.⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ ⁣ #sewing #sewingtutorial #cosplaytutorial #cosplaysewing #cosplaytips #sewingtips #learntosew #chiffondress #rolledhem #fashionsewing #sewingfun #sewist #easysewing ⁣#handmadewithjoann https://www.instagram.com/p/CAgYuokDO4f/?igshid=13vf7tffnnssy

Ok cosplay friends, here's my secret to cheap and basically no effort chainmail...steel scouring pads! I got these from the dollar store and if unroll them they're basically a chainmail sleeve. You can also get them copper colored for different armor types. #nerdimmersion #cosplay #cosplaytips #chainmail #cosplayarmor #dndlive2019 #dndcosplay #cosplaychainmail #DungeonsAndDragons https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwvh3ZNH_33/?igshid=sr3jccm1jshw
