Amazing!  Is it heavy?

[strangegoose]

No , it's made of an old hoodie and a camping mats I found abandoned last Glastonbury . It's  bit warm wearing it !

[Crazyfool01]

finished painting my wellies ( which won't be needed but I will wear anyway ) and painting the hat too .. has brightened them up a bit   and made them uv compatible should I find any . and put them with the farm as the backdrop

[Someoni]

Lights will be embroidered into my suit this week

Well, Alice has to stay away until Friday so she doesn't knacker herself out before then.... But I'm planning to!

There simply aren't enough upvotes in the world for this. Are you gonna be wearing it every day? Of the festival that is... not life.

Love the clarification, imagine: I'm just off to Waitrose, in my full Groot outfit

Absolutely love your Alice outfit, especially as you made it in Peru!  That makes it so very special  

 

Hehe yes, chuckling away to myself at the thought of that. Imagine turning round from picking up some milk and facing him aswell! 

Thank you  I've never done glasto fancydress before. No idea why. It's so fun!

Will be wearing it for some of Wednesday and Thursday, might wear it to watch flaming lips . I'm not sure the world is ready for everyday groot outfits 

[strangegoose]

Well if I wear it to the screening of vol 2 at the cinema tent I maybe win a prize . Nice

Don't mean to sound crazy and/or stalkery, but if I see a Groot then that Groot is getting a damn big hugging 

[CaledonianGonzo]

I think you'll be joining the queue of people wanting a Groot huggie.

Just amazing. I went as Nebula last year for Halloween but much too much makeup and effort for the festival. I wish I could join you!  

I'll have to find something that takes me less than 6hrs of makeup
