How I did it: With 10,000 songs in my collection, I vowed not to purchase (or borrow) any other music until I had heard it all and organized it - tagged it, rated it, etc. So every day I listened to to a few albums at a time on my iPod. It took me months, but now it's all neat and organized, and i've been able to delete so much, and also discover so much great stuff that I love. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Once I figured out what costume I wanted to do, i basically just went at it - I bought the fabric, got some help from people with the sewing and spent a pile of time painting, gluing and attaching things to other things. It was work, but it was totally worth it. At the convention, I entered the masquerade, wrote a short two sentence script and that was it! It was so so fun. Read how I did it…
