Favorite Costumes From the Make and Craft Crew

Filed under: Halloween — Laura Moncur @ 5:00 pm

H. R. PuffNStuffThe crafters and makers at Make and Craft magazine talk about their favorite Halloween costumes.

I love Brian Jepsen’s trip down memory lane:

As a kid, I was drawn to vivid psychedelic imagery (hey, who wasn’t?). The trippier, the better. I was sucked right into HR Pufnstuf as well as Lidsville, my two favorite kids shows. I was thrilled to be able to dress up as HR Pufnstuf one halloween, and this photo remains one of my favorite pictures in my family’s pile of slides.

I have dressed up more for Halloween than most people do in a lifetime. It seems like I’m continually trying to make up for those years as a child when I couldn’t celebrate. I have ended up turning Halloween into some sort of yearly event that I think about all year long. I don’t have any photos from childhood of me dressed up in a one-dimensional costume, but maybe if I did, I wouldn’t like Halloween as much as I do today.

  1. I don’t know, I dressed up at Halloween when I was growing up and I still love it! (Not quite as much as you though :)
