It's been not only a long time since I've posted here, but it has been a long time since I shared photos of my place. The last time you guys saw where I lived I was still living at home with my parents. It was back in 2012, so easily 4 years ago you saw my collection. Now you can see not only has my… [more]
So since I've moved into my new apartment I still hadn't set up my photography studio. Seems work has me busier than I thought I would ever be, however I took some time this past weekend to set up my studio so I could take some photos of my latest purchase, Alter's 1/8th Melty from Shining Hearts. Now… [more]
Pre-ordered this figure the moment she was released for pre-order. I needed for for multiple reasons, she's sexy/half naked, plus while she's not Sora she reminds me of Sora from Yosuga no Sora! But she's Yuki from Maid Yome and she's pretty amazing. The only issue is her adorable mouth really looks… [more]
I recently went on a trip to a magical place, The Container Store. Ok it's not really magical, but I happen to have discovered a love for organizing my home. I tend to prefer Ikea and Daiso but we went to The Container Store on a whim and I discovered this lovely storage container! I've been needing… [more]
As promised here are the pics! Only things missing are the eggs and the humpty lock but those are on their way.
What do you guys think? I’m’ getting nervous about this outfit all of a sudden. I’m quite the perfectionist when it comes to cosplays, so i don’t’ want to look terrible. Can you think of anything i may need to work on for this outfit? Remember I’m getting the Humpty lock and eggs soon.
EDIT! I added the side pony tail on the wig, how’s it look? And it’s on the other side, i just took this from my bathroom mirror…
EDIT 01-22-09
To remind everyone this is an old cosplay for me now, i did this last year for anime expo ’09. I made the skirt, the bag, the legwarmers and the hair clips. No i won’t be doing commissions for anyone, I won’t make anything for anyone. I got the material at Joann’s Fabric store. I got my eggs from this girl, now sure if she is still selling them but you can try. I got my Wig on ebay and no i don’t remember the seller.

i got a skirt from hot topic.
i love your costume…i love amu-chan..but i’m a litle pissed off that ikuto and amu haven’t kissed yet.
please let me know..i have til may 25 2009, i’m goign to be amu-chan for animazment 2009
@Mary:
i found the wig on ebay, i had to cut and style it myself so really it’s just finding what works for you. the bag i just tapped cardboard pieces into a box shape and then glued on the material i used to make the skirt and leg warmers. and the hair pin i just taped masking tape over itself enough o make it thick, cut it into the shape, painted it then glued it to two hair pins.
you can see how i made the bag here

and see how i made the hair pins here
http://howagirlfigures.com/2008/05/16/shugo-chara-cosplay-update-2/
while i know it would be helpful to have me make them it wasn’t too much trouble but isn’t worth it to have someone else do it. You might as well just get it done yourself. Plus trust me it’s much more gratifying in the end when you say you made it yourself…
Oh my, I’m trying to find one, and its so hard @.@
Help please!
You can email me at [email protected]
@:Emi-Chan
i made this costume all myself. there is no place to find it online.
hey can you tell me how you made the leg warmers?? i need to make them and i can’t figure out how to do it right. also can you tell me how you made the bag? i am making that too and i can’t figure out how to do that either. i got the box i just need the material to put on it. Please email me at [email protected]. ^3^ thanks…
can i borrow that costume please! ill pay u for it
@cheslea:
i bought the material and cut them into that right shape, then sewed them together, easy peasy
@Somtoya:
no sorry
Very cute! >o< I looove Shugo Chara!
I’m trying to make a Rima costume, but I can’t find the right materials D:
You did a great job with the costume! :]
I think your wig was a bit too long. her hair doesn’t go much past her shoulders. Also the Side ponytail is generally more thick than you have it, but of course that’s very hard to do. Anime always defy the logic of how hair works. I’m just getting a longer blond wig, dying it so that I get the correct color, and then cutting it (or having someone else cut it- i’m not too skilled with scisores) your cosplay is amazing though! where did you order the eggs from?! I’m making mine, maybe even the charas if I have enough time. wish me luck!!
and you don’t need it your costume ROCKS!
I love how your costume turned out, it’s amazing.
I have to do this costume and another and sew for classes. So your costume is going to be a big inspiration to me.
Just wondering where did you get your wig from??
And when you added the pony tail did you have to add wig?
i am trying 2 do the same could you give me some pointers? where did you get the ponytail holder and wig? how much where they? and yours came out great perfect i wouldnt change a thing
Hey!
I have just recently become a HUGE fan of Shugo Chara!
And I just want to know if theres a way to get a baglike the one she carries Mikki Su and Ran in?
I think this is a really good. I am working on an amu cosplay at the moment. I made a box for the egg case, but made it too big, so i’m doing it over. Where did u get the x hair clip? or did u make it? i haven’t been able to find one so i’m making it out of clay and glueing it to a hair pin.
ALINA-
they sell the bag- but it’s SO expensive, even if you didn’t have to pay shipping- you’re better off making one- Dancing Queens box turned out much better then the one I saw on sale- if you want to take a look they sell it here:

Great costume!
But i think anyone who cosplays as Amu should be younger, so then they look more like her.
But a great cosplay ^w^
