Well, I bought some green makeup and a witch hat, (still need to find a good wig), have everything else I need for my witch costume. Giving Pinhead (hubby) a break this year and passing out candy. Also ordered some more pool party to make the pool red. The madness is starting!

Speaking of "witch", anyone know where I can get a DECENT wig, not those cheap pieces of <deleted> like they sell at Party City? This will be an investment in a costume I will probably use for years. Also thinking about a prosthetic witch nose of some sort maybe?

Look for a professional theatrical costume company.

It probably won't be cheap but consider real human hair.

Here is the one I was looking at, it was $90.00, but it's very nice, so I'm told. They start at $41 and go up.:

I bought an awesome green wig from a seller on Etsy. Her shop is Tiffany de Michelle, I believe. I love it and it's handmade and excellent quality. I think I paid about 70 bucks for it.
