WWE .....Made my son's day
My son tried to get me to fork over $80 or $90US for a Ray Mysterio Jr mask on wwe.com all month until I took one look at it, saw it was made of vinyl so I told him to forget about it. He had almost convinced my mother into buying it for him until I figured I'd try making this mask myself.
Out came the red, black and white leather I had lying around in chest from my creative days - cut something up, my mother sewed it up along with a pair of pants he had modified & he cut out the lettering in leather to sew along the sides. (edit) If I may say so myself.....it was really a cool costume for Halloween.
My ex-husband by fluke had a friend offer him tickets to todays'
Up Close & Uncensored (SmackDown! brand) - second row seats - so my son decided he was wearing the outfit to the show or fight or whatever they call it nowadays.
Ray Mysterio Jr., as he was passing by, stop by my son - tossled his head (mask), shook his hand and said 'gracias'.
Simple gesture and the kid is on cloud nine - thanking my mom & me for being the best mask makers around!
