Jen's Costumes

My name is Jen. I started making costumes for halloween in 2005. I would love to make a costume for anybody! If you are interested email me

This is "Chicky-Poo", my first forray into costume building, and before I had discovered expanding foam. Chicky Poo is made of plaster strips, paint, cardboard, and papier mache. I have re-painted it since to match the body.
This is me wearing the Chicky-Poo costume when my friends and I invaded Macy's. You can see my shorts underneath unfortunately, since the costume is short, and I am pretty tall.
"Parsley" is a green monster. His head is made of expanding foam, papier mache, felt and fuzzy fleece. The teeth are foam. A black panel conceals the face unless direct light is shown on it. The head is VERY resistant to damage, and waterproof!. I have dropped it several times with no injury.
This is a cell phone picture of "Parsley" on an electric grocery cart. You can see the body and leggings made from the same material on the head.
This is the "Parsley" head up close and straight on.
This is a chest-bursting alien I created for my boyfriend. It's made of chicken wire, covered in plaster strips, painted, laquered, and "gooified" The wearer is protected from the chicken wire by thin carboard in the back. It straps around the neck, and sticks through any t-shirt
