Duct Tape Scissorhandsby *UnderCoverCottonswab

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.

That skirt is my FAVORITE, but I decided to lend it out because it looks so darn marvelous with the costume.

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

).

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

Oh gob.

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!!

holy crap this is amazing. You truly can do anything with duct tape... X3

Thank you!! Anything and everything!

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

yep!

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.

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...
