My sister Emily is a creative, artsy type. Many of you know that. Her friend Kelly is a graphic designer, too – they met at a previous job and became fast friends.
Last year they participated in Rock Bottom’s Halloween costume competition and won. They were a clothesline (sorry… I don’t have pictures) it was very creative, each girl was a clothesline pole, they attached string between them and pinned various items of clothing to the strings.
This year they defended their title by constructing a costume at Kelly’s marketing firm after hours using only found items there. Here is their journey in pictures:





Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice! Emily said that even the headphones were made out of cardboard. They also attached Emily’s iPod speakers inside of the boombox, so it actually played music.
Well done! Better be thinking of next year’s ideas, you’re marked women now with two wins in a row – someone will try to take you out! Did you see the grand prize in the last photo? Matching Rock Bottom jackets!


Wow, I am so impressed with stuff like that, not a creative bone in my body, I can’t even draw a straight line, very cool costumes.
