Nora See Art comes up with the most creative costumes, especially when it comes to the Haunted Mansion attraction from Disney Parks. She once did a living statue version of one of the characters from the stretching portraits, and for Halloween this year, she turned to the wallpaper for inspiration. The purple wallpaper in the Haunted Mansion features a scary monster/demon print with eye balls but somehow still manages to look classy.
Nora used the swirly designs (see the wallpaper below) in a unique costume design that brings the wallpaper to life. She came up with a fierce Haunted Mansion Wallpaper Warrior costume. It features an elaborate headpiece, arm gauntlets, and a corset. You can see an in-progress pic of the headpiece below

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
