"BILLY MAYS HERE WITH ANOTHER FANTASTIC PRODUCT!"

What better way to remember one of the all-time greats than to be him! Billy Mays was truly one-of-a-kind and will remain in our hearts and minds forever. Anyhow, my friend and I made our costumes from scratch and put a lot of time into getting ready. It took a month to grow my beard long enough and then painted it black, along with my eyebrows and hair. It took about an hour and a half to do each time because the beard and hairline had to be edged perfectly (just like Billy's). And we did this 3 different nights!

She came as my oxiclean so that I wouldn’t have to carry a tub of it around lol. She hand stitched the costume and oxiclean logo out of various fabric and used balloons on top of her head for the bubbles. Armed with one of his products, the Gopher, I also made product stickers as displayed on my famous blue shirt! Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!
