I told you not too long ago about The Boxtrolls movie and the awesome sweepstakes that they have going on right now. I also told you that we would be working on making our own Boxtroll. Well we have begun the process and I must tell you there has been a lot of debate and arguments about this. Everyone has a different idea and wants different things but more on that in a minute. First let me remind you about this awesome movie.

The Boxtrolls! is from the Coraline and Paranorman and tells the story of Eggs, an orphaned human boy  lovingly raised by a community of quirky, mischievous creatures who live in a cavernous home beneath the streets of Cheesebridge.  When the town’s village decides to come up with a plan to get rid of The Boxtrolls, Eggs ventures into the light, going above ground where he meets and teams up with Winnifred and together they come up with a plan to save Eggs’ family. We are counting down the days til September 26th when the movie premieres!

I just love that trailer and as I said cannot wait for the movie!

So we have begun making our Boxtroll who will be called Mace because that is the box we have. Don’t ask! I get a million boxes a week here but somehow they rarely have a name written on the side like we wanted and needed. The head part  is actually a toy that we have so are his arms. This has been lying around and we thought it would work best. As you can see we have all of supplies assembled and are working on the best way to make Mace look fabulous! Stay tuned because on Tuesday we will be revealing Mace in all his glory!  Guess what you can make a Boxtroll as well and even enter to win a trip to the L.A Premiere of the movie.
