    Halloween

    So, as you might have noticed… I love Halloween. I love love love Halloween. It may even border on obsession… and my boyfriend will say that we crossed that line ages ago.

    While I’m quite the Zombie fanatic, my favorite costume sets are from (of course) Alice in Wonderland and Nightmare Before Christmas. While both are special to me, Nightmare Before Christmas will always hold a special place in my heart. Every year when I was young, my mom would take my sister, my brother, and I out Trick or Treating, then we would come home to eat candy and popcorn while watching Nightmare Before Christmas.

    And… honestly, Halloween is one of the few times you can literally become anything you dream of… and it is not only socially acceptable but encouraged. I’m in!

    Ive been making my own costumes for years, and people would always ask me how I did it. Now, I can show exactly how it all comes together!

    Hello!

    Hi! I'm Alyce.
    Welcome to my journey towards living a happier and healthier life while living with PTSD and chronic pain... and never letting it keep me from my passion for Halloween, cooking, and way too many DIY projects... all at the same time!

    • One last shot of Sallywise! This was a great test to see what I need to focus on more when timing my looks, and also to realize that a lot of the detail I like to include might not really matter in the harsh dim light of a haunted house. On to the next look! #sallystitches #nightmarebeforechristmas #clowns #pennywise
    • Breaking the Instagram square because this shirt is goals, and one of my all time favorite Halloween finds. It’s from SheIn, and is literally exactly how I would imagine Sally’s dress would be as a shirt. It’s super comfortable, and it even comes in plus sizes! I’m always looking for ways to bring Halloween esthetic to my work wear, and I’m beyond thrilled. Oh, and did I mention it is only $16?!?!!! #nightmarebeforechristmas #halloween #sallycosplay #cosplay
    • When you are feeling Nightmare Before Christmas but need to practice clowns.... you get Sallywise! I challenged myself to get this done as quickly as possible, and originally had my timer set for 20 minutes... this one took about 45 including time to put on the wig, so all in all, not terrible considering I sometimes take a lot longer. The one thing I wish I would have spent more time on is the foundation, which wasn't as opaque as I would have liked, but overall, I really like this one! #Nightmarebeforechristmas #sally #IT #pennywise #clowns
    • Pretty sure I will never quite learn how to stay serious... I seriously love this look so much! #colors #colorful #illgrowupsomday
    • The most beautiful thing about poetry is that the collection of words carries more emotion and meanings than the author may have ever intended. They shape these words into skeletons made of language that we flesh out with our emotions. It’s a living thing, always changing. Make sure to check out the poem that inspired this look on my last post! #poetry #artinspiration #myfavoritepoet #livingart
    • Teal hues And suddenly Your breath Becomes violet Clashing against Rainbow soundwaves And that way crayons Leave broken trails Of color Behind ~ By @andrewcoonswriting #poetry #artinspiration #anxiety #depression #mentalhealth #myfavoritepoet #allthefeels
    • Fun fact: these paints really sting when they get in your eyes. I tried to get it as close to my waterline without actually getting it in my eyes... and I was not successful. Also, not sure I can take myself too seriously in any kind of clown makeup. #clowns #clownmakeup #hauntedhouse #pumpkinmakeup #pumpkins #jackolantern #jackolanternmakeup #mehron
    • I'm going to be doing makeup for a haunted house this year, and when i asked what common requests were, I was informed that clowns are super popular. Until today, I have never yet done a clown... im actually not a huge fan, and I can completely see why clowns are great for terrifying haunt visitors. I've been in more of a pumpkin mood lately, and thought it would be a good way to ease myself into the concept. #clowns #clownmakeup #hauntedhouse #pumpkinmakeup #pumpkins #jackolantern #jackolanternmakeup
    • They said there will be a lot of clowns, but I was feeling pumpkin vibes... and this was the result! I should go to bed, but I’m having too much fun to take this off just yet. 🎃Now for some spooky Netflix and popcorn, and pit bull snuggles on the couch. She’s giving me some side eye right now. #clownmakeup #hauntedhouse #pumpkinmakeup #pumpkins #jackolantern #jackolanternmakeup
