From Play-Doh to high-quality ceramics and clays.
From “god’s eyes” at Vacation Bible School to colorful cords on quality looms.
From too-tight string chains to unique, crochet goods & heirloom apparel.
From cardboard-box armor and stick swords to custom-crafted cosplay perfection.
During the past two decades, I’ve produced everything from:
- social media, blog, and website content
- contest design and event administration packets
- souvenier exhibition booklets and art gallery wall cards
- crochet and craft patterns (several formats for various publication methods)
- essays on fiction and non-fiction topics, including historical research outlines
- game design documents, story bibles, and convention/tradeshow publications
- newsletters and magazine content for industry outreach programs (charity/education/gaming/union)
- resumes and cover letters (both generalized and industry/company targeting)
- storefront descriptions, product listings, and sales lead generation programs
- speeches (as a ghostwriter) and press releases for C- and VP- level clients, along with customer-facing presentations and year-end shareholder reports
- technical documentation packets and user/employee manuals (including DRP, HR policy brochures, and corporate guideline pamphlets)
- basic web design and coding projects – MediaWiki (practiced) and some HTML (simple only, nothing fancy)
- my own poetry (award-winning) and personal writing projects (children’s stories, anthology short stories, and alt-world genre fiction)
When you know what you’d like to say, but just can’t get the right words down on the page, LET ME KNOW. I’d love to help!
Sharon Boudreaux (as, “BeckieSueDalton”)
I’ve been making designer costume pieces and wearable art for just over fifteen years, so I know from experience which sculpting and finishing methods work best. Everything I do is handcrafted, so the cosplay props and accessories you’ll receive are as unique as the personas you create.
Every flower crown or fantasy headdress is heavy on detail yet ultra-light on the head. I use synthetic materials that are securely affixed to the base for a long-lasting, perfect fit that’s easy to clean – whether as a keepsake of your special day or as part of a costumed persona.
Every set of fantasy ears or horns is hand-formed then air-cured (not 3D-printed, cast molded, or brittle-baked), then finished with high-quality paints & durable materials before being set in your choice of a headband or wig kit, resulting in superbly crafted cosplay products that last a lifetime of fan conventions and gaming events.
Have a costume piece you’d like to commission? Let me know!

The Crew
The Team on whom I Rely
It would be disingenuous to imply I do it all myself, so allow me to introduce my team!
“Bonzai” and “Sheeps” are my shop muses. These little beanies came to our home through acts of love, and – as stars of their own adventure series – they’re the driving force of a good bit of household silliness.
“Anne,” “Nancy,” and “Wilson, the Dude” are my shop models. They try on every headpiece I create, helping me ensure that each piece looks perfect from every angle. As such, they are the HEART of my webstore presence.
My angel-faced helper child lends a hand when I need a third arm, or when heavy things need to be moved, or when the post-office run is more than I can handle alone. Blink and you’ll miss her at any other time, she’s always there when I need her the most.
