This was my first try at a "mascot" costume. It was much more difficult than I first expected, as most costumes are! My boyfriend and I worked on this together, I felt that's the only reason it was finished at all! There is PVC piping on the inside of the box for reinforcement, a small hand, battery operated fan inside, a small pocket for my cell phone or money, and it's actually very comfortable to wear! The only problem is, YEP you guessed it, visibility. It's very hard to see out of and not having complete vision is a very new experience for me! If I bump into you, please don't be mad! I'm sorry! XD
