Hall of Costumes: Plinko
Hall of Costumes: Plinko |

If I had a nickel for every day that I've watched The Price Is Right, I could afford to not work and watch The Price Is Right all day. I don't remember where I got that box. Probably from work. It's a good box. From work. |
 |
Fifteen seconds later, I had it cut into the perfect shape for a wearable Plinko board. |
 |
It took me a long time to find the proper material for the pegs. The peg's properties had to be firm, yet provide a slight twang or bounce. The answer was right in front of my nose, the glue sticks from my glue gun. |
 |
I wisely decided to spray paint in the area where all the pets of the apartment complex go number two. |
 |
Wooden discs from the craft store: 59 cents each. I've always appreciated how The Price Is Right never updated its 1970's fonts. I painted the same dollar signs found on the TV show. The day that The Price Is Right stops using that skinny microphone is the day the show loses a lifetime viewer. |
  |
Keeping with the show's accuracy, I painted stripes on the side of the costume. Blue, yellow, orange, and pink. You can't tell from the latter picture, but I installed two flashlights behind the dollar amounts so the slots would glow at night. |
 |
Voila! Plinko with a mustache. |
