Doing some travels on the internet, I ran into a great post with video embeded about how to make spats. My searches usually go from one link to another, searching web and images for information and inspiration. This particular blog was of curious fascination.

As a costumer for FairyBerries, I often look for ideas this way. As an actress, I have a parade coming up this next month for St. Patricks Day. The theme is Irish Fairy folklore for me. So to put a celtic spin on my new costume, I was searching for warm ideas on a very feminine fantasy character.

Threadbanger is a well known tutorial blog site. They always have awesome tutorials on how to make stuff you just don’t see everyday. Alot of the time, it’s steampunk, an up and popular style choice for 2012.
Here is a video from Threadbanger on how to make your own spats. Pretty easy for most who can sew.
