Leaky Con 2013-TARDIS Dress

So my mom surprised me with a TARDIS dress to wear while I'm attending Leaky Con 2013 in Portland, OR.

She made it from a floor length gown and a jacket. Unfortunately there was no in between sewing shots but there will be of the hat that I'm putting together this week to finish the look off.

I've paired it with some space leggings. The signage it all going to be added this week so I'll be posting more pictures with the fully completed outfit soon.

All that is left to do is finish the hat, add the POLICE PUBLIC CALL BOX signage and the ST John's Ambulance sign.

Tomorrow's post will be all about the Sonic Screwdriver drinks!

Cheers!

Happy 20th Tardis Birthday

So I'm turning 20 soon and I've decided that after going out for dinner and drinks we shall head back to my place for cake and drinks. :)

Enter the Doctor Who/ Harry Potter/ British love party.

Upon decided I'd decorate and theme the party around my favourite things I started researching the Doctor Who side of the party. (I already have decorations from a previous Harry Potter night). I found out something interesting.

When you google Harry Potter Party, millions of photos and posts show up... like so many ideas and pictures and everything!

I figured the same would happen for Doctor Who.

I am either wrong and have not put the correct string of words into the search bar or there isn't a lot of evidence of Doctor Who themed parties. Let alone for adults. I found some cute cupcakes, an outlet store across the ocean that sells Doctor who cups and masks, but other then that... zip. Nothing overly inspiring. I've encountered plenty of photos of the cast and crew and Tardis cakes.

So out into the unknown I go party planning.

I've come up with the following;

TARDIS DOOR over my own front door. "Party is bigger on the inside"
Serving sonic screwdriver drinks (I have found a recipe for this!)
TARDIS Cups

For these I just took blue SOLO CUPS and some white peel stick paper and for the signs I printed those off onto the peely stick paper. Police Box signs were hand done with a Sharpie. Overall they're pretty cute.

I'm also baking either sugar cookies or little cupcakes which will be decorated with the British Flag.

I think I'm more excited about decorating for this then anything else. Well... except attending Leaky Con Portland this summer. <3

Cheers!
