Me? A PRINCESS?!

Home: Louisiana, United States of America

As one of the first films I saw in theaters as a child, Disney's The Princess Diaries has always been a favorite. This year, I'm bringing main character Mia Thermopolis to life! Join me as I build mockups and talk research, planning, sourcing, and prototypes for costume projects, as well as all my other interests: history, gaming, travel, vlogging, and witchcraft.
