Making of Carl Fredricksen from Up Costume

I made one of these out of pink insulation foam and I have a different blog post and how to about that one. But hes rough and I wanted to make a better one and one that I can easily make copies of for people that want to rent of purchase him. So this is my process on this version. Turned out great! Hit me up if you want to rent or buy one.

Audition Tape for the tv show "Making It"

 I have created and make so many things over the years that I decided to make and send in an audition tape for the NBC tv show "Making It". A show about creators and makers with hosts Nick Offerman and Amy Poehler. I didn't get chosen for call backs but I was happy I spent some time creating this video of some of my projects. Hopefully you're inspired to create something of your own. 




Tetris Glow in the Dark Painting

 I had a couple old movie painting that I wanted to paint over as Tetris and pac man for my game room. I also wanted to use glow in the dark paint so the colors really pop under the black lights. Turned out really great!

Skeleton Plaque - Make It With Mason

 Every year I host a Make It With Mason night where we create and make a halloween related craft or project. This year I made a mold and plaster cast of this plaque for everyone to paint. We learned dry brushing techniques and wet brush with a wipe away. Such a fun night with great friends and safety during covid.

Beauty and the Beast Makeup

 Gina came over and we looked up different makeup ideas on Pinterest and found one for half beauty and half beast. We loved the idea and so we tried it out. We are pretty happy with the results. It was such a fun to do. We even turned on a live Instagram video and a few people watch the process which was cool to do.
