Hello Everyone I hope that you have enjoyed Mario Day this year and were able to take advantage of the great sales that Nintendo was having. I know I’m a couple of weeks late but I wanted to share with you this Toadette cosplay I made in January of this year. It was so much fun to make and it was a bit out of my comfort zone. For a while, I have really wanted to buy a hat that looked like a mushroom that was really popular last year or two years ago. Like with most things I was way behind the trend and by the time I knew about it, the fad had died down. My cottagecore vibes though could not stop thinking about making a mushroom hat so I decided to give it a try. What I love most about this project is I was able to use leftover packaging and things that were just going to be thrown away and given new life. Here is my Mario Day post featuring this super fun hat.
With this cosplay, I decided to challenge myself to make this as budget-friendly as I could. If you can believe it, I only spent about $20 on this one. The majority of it went into the wig. The pink dress under the vest was one that I already had in my closet and the vest fabric I found at Walmart for $3+ a yard and I reused some gold ribbon I already had. If you would like to see some of the process of making this costume please be sure to check out my Instagram.
