Pocket Witch
Lydia made this Pocket Witch costume several years ago to serve two purposes: first, well obviously it's part of a costume, but it also serves as a game. Essentially, before greeting trick-or-treaters or attending school carnivals, she fills the pockets with small prizes such as spider rings, baseball cards, bouncy balls, and small figures; she then allows the kids to pick one prize each from any pocket they want. The Pocket Witch costume has been such a big hit that over the years many friends and family members have asked to borrow it. Lydia's daughter, Emily, is modeling it in the photo above.
