Mari Lwyd Costume

I made and wore this costume myself. "This is Mari Lwyd, a midwinter, pagan tradition whereby celebrants earn food and drink only after dominating a poetry slam fronted by a skeletal face" Definition taken from www.atlasobscura.com. This horse puppet is made from a horse skull mounted on a pole/stick and covered by a white cloth. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a real horse skull at an affordable price, so I made one with paper mache.
