Beaver Cosplay

I’ve never really identified with people that do cosplay stuff. Like yes, the craft and artistry of those costumes are amazing! But I’m just too GenX to really accept the idea of me, personally, dressing up as something from a movie. Right?

Anyways, lately I’ve been on a low-key mission the last few months to make people watch HUNDREDS OF BEAVERS. This includes: family, friends, and everybody who works at Brand New Box. Haven’t seen it? Imagine a 90-minute Looney Tunes but that looks like this:

That hat is incredible Halloween costume material, right?

SO: The movie has been video-on-demand for a while now, but THIS week it was playing for one night only at my local arthouse theater. I couldn’t resist doing a 1-hr craft project to make my own hat.

Add a crumpled paper bag for a raccoon tail and a lick of paint - and we’re off to the theater.
