As any cosplayer knows, old cosplays can take up a LOT of space. I have created over 50 different costumes, and if I kept every single one of them, I wouldn’t have room for anything else! Fortunately, there are lots of solutions for what to do with old costumes. In this post, I’ll be covering …
I LOVE cosplay. I love creating amazing things, putting on a new costume for the first time, taking my cosplay out for a photoshoot. But while I really do love it, sometimes I just don’t want to do it. Maybe I lose interest or motivation in a project, and it sits on the shelf gathering …
I’ve been cosplaying a lot from the Dream SMP fandom recently, but most of my cosplays have been largely thrifted. And while I do love doing more casual cosplays like that, I wanted to make one that was more from scratch. So to do that, I decided to make a Foolish cosplay! Most of this …
I’ve been cosplaying since early 2018, and in almost every year since then, I’ve only made a few cosplays. Maybe five max. I would get so many ideas for cosplays, then get distracted, or procrastinate, or do other things, and before I knew it, it was the end of the year. However, for 2021, it …

Recently, I created a bunch of different cosplays from the Dream SMP, which is a role-playing Minecraft server with an immersive storyline, compelling plot, and a ton of great characters to dress up as! One of these characters was Tommyinnit, whom I covered briefly in a different blog post, but decided to go more into …
For a lot of cosplayers, being featured in a cosplay magazine would be a dream come true! But it can sometimes seem unachievable, with so many skilled cosplayers out there – how can you give yourself the best chance of being featured? There’s not one exact method of success, given that there are so many …
Cosplay — especially budget cosplay — is something I have been doing for years, and am very passionate about! I love making my own costumes, and bringing my favorite characters to life. But the problem is that it can be expensive, and I oftentimes don’t want to spend several hundred dollars on a single costume. …
Gravity Falls is an animated Disney show that first aired in 2012, and, despite it coming out almost a decade ago, it still has a ton of active fans. As someone who got into the fandom VERY late (cough, last month, cough), I had plenty of inspiration when I started creating my own Gravity Falls …
