Why am I such a fucking over achiever??

Will's b-day party with friends is on Sunday. I decided to sew Angry Birds masks.

I went to finish them tonight (last thing I needed to do in preparation for the party). I *totally* fucked one up. I have no felt left to replace it and very little time to go buy some and remake it.

The stupid 8 for $5 paper masks from Party City weren't good enough. Nooooo, I had to go be Betty Fucking Homemaker.

Ugggghhhhhh

When I saw you're original post I thought you were crazy for taking that on. Good luck thought, I'm sure everything will be amazing in the end.

I like nursecramer's idea. Hot glue some foil on there to make a robo-angry bird or something! Or a crown to make King Angrybird, depending on where you need coverage.

So, I'm doing a mix of sewing and hot glue. I've sewed the main mask parts (two layers and the elastic) and glued beaks, snouts, eyebrows, etc.

The one that I ruined, I ruined twice. LOL. Once the initial time, once when I tried to fix it.

I actually just remembered that I have felt left over from Will's super hero cape. It's not the right color, but at this point I don't give a fuck.

I made myself a margarita to make things better. Heh.

Good call.

I'm sure it'll turn out great and much better than you think. He's going to freak and love it, and so will all his birthday party friends!
