Aloha From Hell-waii

Hello friends! Once again I'm sorry about the confusion with my blog post about a new blog, the Kitschy Coffin has been deleted and I'm now coffinkitsch.blogspot.com. Going to a blogspot will completely fuck all my links up on my Google images as well as other links on other sites, but oh well. I'm still at Coffin Kitsch!!! Any who, onto playing Halloween catch up!

Derek and I decided on a hellish theme Halloween with our costumes as well as some of our decorations for the bar area of our home. I am on a personal mission to bring back the devil as I believe there are not enough devil's in modern Halloween decor! What's up with that?! Devils are so cute! Hehehe!

So, we came up with an 'Aloha from Hell-waii' theme. Just fun and punny and I got to order myself a wonderful black beehive wig (of my dreams) from Paramount Wigs on etsy and added some red horn hair clips (via ebay) and red hibiscus flowers that I already owned. The dress is from my own closet and Derek painted the red flames with acrylic paint. I added some red satin gloves, red flower lei and some bamboo hoop earrings and Voila! a 60s devil gal! 

I love this wig sooo much!

Derek reused an Elvis costume he bought years ago, painted his face red, added some horns and I sculpted his long hair into a pompadour. Add some plastic floral lei's and white creeper shoes and you've got Hellvis! If you look at the first picture I posted, next to the sign is a Hellvis statue that is one of Derek's creations. He used to make his living sculpting and producing satirical Elvis busts under the name, Suffering from Elvis Disease. He still makes the busts from time to time, yet the one that started it all was the original Hellvis.

And I just can't forget to include a photo of Jodee in her deviled egg costume holding the deviled eggs she brought to the party. She looks so darn cute and I love that she drew on a little mustache! 

PS-Sorry the photos are dark and red, we had a lot of red lights on, because...well, it's Hell. Hahaha!

How was your Halloween? Did you dress up?

Thank you for reading, until next time!!!

Happy Halloween!

As you know we're a little 'batty' for Halloween! Hahaha! These were our costumes yesterday as we were ready to hand out candy to the trick or treats (we had to leave the bowl out, since no kids showed up) and then went to a party.

On Saturday we went to a Samhaim party and we were so wrapped up in our other costumes, we forgot to plan one for the party! I just sorta 'went with it' and did a goth look that turned out to be very Monica Richards-esque.

I am wearing a lace top that was from a clothing swap, Restyle dress that I bought last year which had to be chopped down into a skirt (their size chart was VERY wrong and I was VERY upset about it), sleeves are by Rose Mortem (Derek won them for me at an auction/benefit event), head piece is a necklace, rose crown by Bling Beauty Boutique, wig is something I've had for a few years.

Yeah, I was dressed as a goth, but felt very ethereal and it was nice to dress and have the outfit evolve....and use items I've never worn. Unfortunately I didn't get a better photo of the really nice lace neck ruffle I was wearing. Oh well.

Derek the Undertaker was my date <3

And then for something completely different! Presenting Pizza Princess and her husband King Candy Corn. These are the costumes we wore for a swing dance a few Sunday's ago. We dressed as some of our favorite foods and just created characters from some clothing we had, which served as our base to our imagination.

Derek painted his jacket (thrift store), sculpted the details on his crown, my crown, my necklace and earrings, along with my pizza scepter and his cane. I added felt pizza's (hat I made) to the thrifted dress, along with dingle balls and ribbon. I'm really, REALLY good at making little pizzas. Haha!

Sadly it's Novemver 1st and we're going to try and find some after Halloween deals, but I know it's going to all be Christmas and.......yeah, I'm not ready for that. TOO EARLY!!!

How was your Halloween? Did you get a chance to dress up?
