Movember (No Shave November)

Have you guys heard of this thing called Movember? It’s basically a fundraising campain where you grow a mustache to “raise funds and awareness for men’s health, specifically prostate cancer” (us.movember.com). I think it’s awesome, but what about those who either, can’t grow a mustache, or aren’t comfortable with their facial hair growing abilities (like myself)? Well have I got a solution for you!

Many of you have seen my previous pattern for a mustache that I put up a while back, well now get ready for the new mustache of the season….

HorseShoe Mustache!

Bam!

Many famous people have sported these bad boys throughout the years, like Hulk Hogan, John Lenon, and Seth Rogen, and now, you too!!

Along with this bad boy comes these sweet sideburns that can be attached to glasses, you may have seen them on the Early November Giveaway I did a while back.

I know it may be a little late, but better then never, here’s the pattern for the Horseshoe Mustache and Sideburns!

Winner for the November Giveaway!

So Sunday was the end of the November Giveaway, and the winner is…….

Casa De La Zombies!

She was the first to guess the one answer that was the only one everyone got, which was #2, The elf hat. But heres the problem, Casa De La Zombies, if youre reading this, I don’t have any way to send you your winnings, or contact you, so if you can, comment on this, or email me at louies.loops@gmail.com so I can send you it! Haha

So here are the answers!

1.

So this is supposed to be a fox tail, the finished product is coming very soon.

2.

Like I said before, this is an elf hat with removable ears, haha. Pretty similar to the wizard hat posted a few weeks ago.

3.

This one is easily the most difficult.
Okay, so this one wasn’t really fair to be honest. :/ sorry. It’s a couple of sideburns, that can be put on glasses. You should see it later this week, along with the pattern. Again, sorry about making it confusing haha.

Thanks again to everyone who guessed, and keep checking back for more giveaways, and the hats and patterns that will be coming soon! And again, Casa De La Zombies, contact me please!

Early November Giveaway Game!

So Novembers almost here, and with it, will be coming some great new crafts and patterns! But the things I’m planning are not exactly finished yet. So, I thought why not give a sneak preview of whats to come, as well as making it into a game! With a prize of course. πŸ™‚

So here are three different items that are not finished yet, but are on their way, and enough done to be able to tell what they are. But it’s not going to be easy. The rules of the game are pretty simple, you have to guess what each of the items are and post your guesses in the comment box below or on Facebook. Whoever comments with the most correct answers fastest will be shipped one of the items! Pretty simple. This game will end on November 15th because that’s when I’m going to start posting the answers! Good Luck!

Here are the items to guess:

This one is easily the most difficult.
