For day 3 of Hamster Halloween Costumes, I eventually landed on Tinkerbell. This idea itself was one I had written down for a while now, but there were 2 or 3 other ideas that were much higher on the list of possibilities for this year. But yesterday, when it came time to make the final costume, I wanted something that I perceived to be the easiest to make and fastest to complete. I figured a plain green cape for the dress and a pair of wings would be perfect. The fabric I used for the wings was actually quite difficult to work with and since I was rushing, they didn't turn out quite as nice as I had hoped. But I really do love the final outcome!
Haleth had a bit of trouble fitting the whole piece of apple in her cheek, but eventually she got it all in. 😅 I did manage to catch her tongue out in two pictures. I think that was just her getting into character as a little fairy that spends her time surrounded by children who don't want to grow up. Haleth did a wonderful job yesterday modeling these last two costumes that I hadn't photographed yet. I knew she had it in her, but she was just so rotten with the first group we did that I was second guessing my decision to be doing costumes with her. I actually think she's noticed that she has a cute boy (aka Glorfindel) living next to her and that's why even though she's getting old now, she's been acting a bit crazy at times. Hahaha!
I do wish that hamsters could stay young forever instead of growing up so fast. 😕 As a quick update, Fili hasn't been waking up as much during the day, but I still typically see him at least once. I realized yesterday that he already has Tarcil's record beat for being my oldest ham. I've been referring to Fili as my immortal ham, which I know isn't true, but for now it kinda seems like it could be. Haha!
