WW: Feathered Mask for Crow Costume

Crow Costume Photo

"People once believed that, when someone dies, a crow carries their soul to the land of the dead."
- The Crow

By the sixth day of rain last week, I thought it only appropriate to upcycle an old masquerade mask with black feathers and dress as a crow for an early Halloween costume party. It can't rain all the time, right?

    Cool mask! When I was a kid, my parents brought home a mask from New Orleans for me that is super ornate with feathers and ribbons and sequins and I still have it!

    That is one cool mask. We have had a bit too much rain here too and school holidays and the craft/usual box has been rather useful.

    Well, that was a different site to see than the usual Wordless Wednesday. Have to admit, even though it IS a neat mask, it did make me jump a bit.

    Must be crow season. I saw a large murder of crows fly over and perch in the evergreens the other day and one flew to the top of a fence post where the poultry yard is. The chickens did not seem to care for it much as it was bobbing and probably squawking at them.
