Snail Mail Game Show | Uncustomary

So glad the Snail Mail Game Show is back, and I’m in love with getting such creative piece of art in my PO Box! For Round 13, the participants received a piece of paper with the outline of a pair of glasses and the prompt, “If you could dress yourself up in a custom outfit inspired by a piece of food, what would that outfit look like?”

Holy moly, what color! Definitely digging this Troll theme and the cornucopia of fruit in a cupcake shape!

Brittany shared that she drew this on her 30th birthday, and if I’m being honest when I made this prompt up I 100% had corn in my head.

Ah yes, the famous Unicorn drink from Starbucks! Might as well embody the spirit of something edible AND mythical, right?

Sushi inspired fashion? Super cute. I wonder if she has an earlier curfew than her fried counterparts.

Titled “Squash Blossom”, this is definitely the outfit I’d choose to wear to my next ball.

Pretty obsessed with the headwear accompanying this watermelon themed outfit. I wonder if it comes in seedless?

Jana said her favorite two foods are donuts and waffles, and I think Leslie Knope would approve. Also, isn’t this drawing style just utterly adorable?

What gorgeous detail! I’m super impressed by this ornate outfit, and matching pineapple dog sunglasses accessories to complete the total look. You’re gonna turn heads all the way to wherever you’re going and then some in this ensemble.

And the winner of Round 13 is… Pearl! I will be sending her a prize via snail mail.
