I've done my fair share of costume-making over the years, everything from Little Red Riding Hood to the Big Bad Wolf, Elton John to Harry Potter, R2-D2 to The Spy Who Loved His Mommy.

Here's a handy roundup of some of the geekiest costumes we've featured over the past few years.

One of our more popular posts last year was Goli's discovery of a Banksy Flower Thrower costume:
