• Running a Small Masquerade
  A reprint of an article series I did for the International Costumers Guild newsletter.
• Basic Full-Face Makeup Application
  How to put on your face, for street or stage.

These two articles were written before the recent proliferation of cheap light-up gizmos. They still have enough useful information in them to make them worth a look.

• Budget Costume Illumination
  Includes basic instructions on how to solder two wires together, something many costumers have never done.
• budget Costume Electronics
  Includes simple math you can use to make sure you have the batteries right so your LEDs will light up, if you are determined to wire from scratch.
