learning2flySUCCESS!!!
Value Village ROCKS MY WORLD:
- grey button up long sleeve cartigan with white collar and wrist cuffs. (hacked them off at the elbow and hand sewed the cuffs back on, just like I did for my Magenta dress. I'm getting good at that).
- grey wool pencil skirt (closest I could find in my size)
and at the dollar store I found:
- Ninja Training set complete with large knife that will work for the show, along with a mini Sai (thanks Steffen!) and two chinese stars with a ring of plastic covering the pointy edges.
Safety ninja stars!?! NO FUN.
all for a grand total of $5.43.
Sweeeet.
Now all I need to complete the ensemble is the goofy chef hat I borrowed from my boss and the apron that I usually wear for Rocky. Did we put our props in the basement after the halloween shows? Is the apron down there? I'm gonna need it. Also, I couldn't find 2 tops, so I'm going to put a hole in the back of the shirt and put the knife through it later on in the show. No fake blood then. Maybe I'll get some red cloth or something to make up for it. I'm not sure how that thing is going to stay up though. I might have to tape it to my back to hold it. The cartigan is very flimsy. Any ideas??
