I hope the edit doesn't notify everyone. :/ Just added a few more keywords.


Corset, leg pieces, arm straps/ bands, collars, and gauntlet are 100% duct tape. Made by me.

I didn't have time to make the actual scissor-hands, so those are store bought. :iconsadfaceplz:

That skirt is my FAVORITE, but I decided to lend it out because it looks so darn marvelous with the costume. :heart: She wore broken knee-high Converse. MORE TAPE FOR FIXING!!!

I designed this: :thumb179255664: for my lovin's little sister with the intent to make an ultra deluxe costume. With time running out, I was lucky to finish this piece in time for Halloween.

I used about 2 rolls of big fat duct tape, 3 rolls of black duct tape, and 1 roll of chrome duct tape. It took about 2 months to complete (I had to work more at my job than I would have liked :ohnoes:).

The instruction manual was EPIC. I'll upload eventually, along with a higher resolution and quality photograph.

Costume by: ~UnderCoverCottonswab
Model, Hair, and Make-up: Lovin's little sister


Edward Scissorhands belongs to Tim Burton. Yous knows this.

Oh gob. :iconohshitplz: Scary Miku! That could be a fun one to make...
I always love a challenge. It wasn't difficult as much as it was fun to construct. Thank you!!

Thank you!! Anything and everything! :icondawwwwplz:

The scissorhands are either from Halloween Club or a Spirit Store. You can probably find them online, too.

yep! :iconchuuplz:

ah, okay. I looked there but theirs didn't look very good in the picture. I guess they look better in real life than in the picture they use

They're kinda foamy and sad in real life, too. :iconlazycryplz: You may be better off making your own out of cardboard and duct tape. (Crazy, I know.)

aw TT.TT I was thinking of making them, but I haven't found any tutorials for it or anything, so I'd have to figure everything out myself ^^; I've never made props without a tutorial before TT.TT

It could be a fun first project for you! I want to make a pair myself. Maybe when I do, I could make a tutorial of it. Hmm...
