Marylen,

Thank you for the outstanding costume! Our Board of Directors was very impressed with the outcome. Below, is a quick little video of one of our staff sporting the costume. The iridescent effect in the sunlight is amazing. 

Again, thank you and your work is outstanding.

Hi Linda,
Well Christmas is over and thank goodness we all survived. I’m sure bunny season has kicked in already for you. But, I wanted to let you know about the custom made Clarice Reindeer costume you made for me and how it was an absolute stunning success !!! I can’t begin to tell you how many people just loved the girl reindeer and how cute they all thought she was. From the custom eye lashes to the polka dot bow and scarf she sported, the little girls immediately fell in love with her. Your folks did an amazing job. Some pictures below from our local free Santa pictures for the kids event we had amongst many events both Rudolph and Clarice were a part of.

Clarice and Rudolph with Santa – Christmas 2019

Well one thing I discovered, most of my lady friends who played Clarice were smaller than I thought. My wife’s surprise of her very own Clarice costume was priceless, and it really was a big surprise to her to get her own lady reindeer costume, but because she had had back surgery two years ago, pain still comes and goes unfortunately, and during the holiday season she was hurting really bad again, so she couldn’t play Clarice. I got the Large body for her and the Medium body for others who might help. As it turned out I got lots of help but the gals were more suited for a Small body. So here I am back with you to order a Small costume body.

Here are some of the pictures! I’m going to contact Cheetah Conservation Botswana and see if they have some other good ones they can send over as well 🙂 

You guys did a great job and the costume has been a huge hit over there!

Hello! This is Alexandra N. Minor

I purchased a mascot costume that I thought belonged to GreatMascot.com. Turns out it was a knock off of the original Marylen Design! Here is a collection of pictures of the costume.

We discussed the issue of Chinese knock offs over the phone and I would love to spread the word of how horrible these costumes are and the harm that it does to hardworking American companies. I’ll also be sending you a funny video of me putting on this costume so you can see it in action.

Thank you!
Alexandra N. Minor
