Mary Helen Saba's hobby is costumes.\nSaba, dubbed by friends as \"the costume queen,\" decided to dress as a different theme each day for a year. The 26-year-old is documenting the challenge on her blog, Theme Me.\n\"Even before I started this blog I wouldn\u2019t throw out an item of clothing or a prop if I thought I\u2019d be able to use it for a costume. Basically, I\u2019ve been preparing for this my entire life (watch this space \u2026 in five years I\u2019ll be on \u2018Hoarders\u2019),\" writes Saba.\nCurrently seven months into the project, Saba's blog receives more than 2,000 monthly visitors on average. Readers can submit suggestions, which Saba takes into consideration when she's feeling strapped for ideas. \nSEE ALSO: 25 Crazy Pet Costumes That Put Yours to Shame\n\"The hardest days are the ones where I haven't planned something from the weekend before because there was no obvious holiday or celebrity birthday, and suddenly it's 11pm the night before and I don't have what I need to pull off any user-suggested themes,\" Saba tells Mashable.\nWhen Saba gets stressed over lack of inspiration and reader submissions, she usually scrounges the Internet. Sometimes, it's led to more conceptual costumes, like day 141, when her muse was Nickelback front man Chad Kroeger. Instead of just being the singer, she used a pickle, a green blanket and a blonde wig \u2014 partially resembling a Pickleback, the drink named after the band.\n\"It's not the best executed costume I've done, but the concept is funny enough (I hope) to make it acceptable,\" explains Saba.\nWith five months to go, Saba's dream is to capture the attention of a celebrity known for dressing in kooky costumes as well \u2014 Ellen DeGeneres.\n\"I'm still keeping my all my fingers and toes crossed for that one,\" says Saba.\nImages courtesy of Mary Helen Saba"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
