New years party costume

[Jiggerachi]

Friend is throwing a masquarade party for new years, everyone has to wear a mask of some sort. Im not feeling homo enough this year to wear something that Elton John would wear so I cam up with a brilliant(I think anyway) alternative...it came out so good I had to post it somewhere.

I don't know if any of yall are familar with the 1964 painting "The Son of Man,"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Son_of_Man But it's pretty popular and one of my favorites. Anyway, here goes...




I don't know if anyone at the party will know what the hell it is, they're all pretty young, but oh well, it'll still be funny.

Cool! How are you holding the apple?

[Jiggerachi]

It's a $3 plastic hat from Party City with a coathanger wire around the crown of the hat sticking out and down to hold the apple. The leaves are from a dollar store, the apple is from Tom Thumb.

Great idea!

After the Thomas Crown Affair movie, I think people will recognize it better. Very clever. Have fun.

Much better than a fig leaf.

Good idea

That is awesome!

I'd be craving Apfelwein all night.

If that is a real apple, you could get a foam one at Hobby Lobby/Micheals etc.

How are you gonna bend you elbow the wrong way?

Great idea. I recognized it immediately.
