In the 18th century a new printing method was developed in West Europe which meant that the original chintzes could be reproduced, putting an end to imports from India. The characteristic sheen was applied to the cotton fabric not merely to given the appearance of the silken materials of the time, but of course also to resist dirt and moisture. A feature of the original cotton chintz is the low shine which was obtained by calendering using rice water and stone polishing. Various parts of traditional Dutch costume were made in this chintz. We know the end result as the cotton chintz which was used in particular in West European interiors and the clothing and costume of that period. The original native patterns were adapted to suit European fashion, taste and purchaser under the supervision of the VOC. These cotton fabrics were brought to the Netherlands by the merchants of the Dutch East India Company (VOC) from the Dutch settlements on the Coromandel coast of India. They dressed up at Despicable Me 2, and they nailed it.A cotton printer with a pressure woodblock in his right hand and on his left hand a glass shine on stalk. I also need to add in a picture of our good friends from church. However, this is just a decision we have made for our own family. I am not legalistic about it and believe that there are a lot of Bible passages giving us freedom to make some of these choices. We head to a harvest party at our church, don’t decorate and always choose family friendly costumes. While I love dressing up, and I grew up wanting to make my entire house look haunted, I have felt more conviction lately to move away from the scary and evil side. I do need to add a note that we are moving away from traditional Halloween ideas. Curious about our opinions on Santa, the Easter Bunny, etc.? Please visit my post on the topic.
We landed on these allusive and yet familiar characters. We try to brainstorm as a family and almost did the Frozen theme, but the kids ended up moving away from that idea. So, we finally convinced him to be a leprechaun and told him he could carry his bow and arrow if he wished. He wanted to carry his nerf bow and arrow, and we considered making him Cupid, but he wasn’t keen on wearing a loin cloth. Corban has been a little hesitant about the leprechaun idea…actually, the dressing up idea all together. I have kids with opinions now to consider, and I’m wondering how long they’ll put up with me. I love trying to brainstorm what we might do, and my brainstorming tends to begin November 1st. Halloween Express might be a great place to look if you are trying to come up with ideas for your own family. I love f amily themed costume ideas, and I hope you will check out some of our other ideas from years in the past: Piñata Costume, Muppets Costume, 15 Creative Family Costume Ideas and our Super Hero Costumes, and a number of our other Costumes from the Past, which includes some of my pregnancy costumes. This year we were Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, a gnome and a leprechaun. We decided to dress up as those character you hear about but never really see. This year I am brining to you our own family Halloween costume idea. I have always love dressing up, and I am so glad I married a man that was willing – even excited – to join in the fun.
