Is anyone sensing a theme this week?
Somebody made a lime green felted bowler as part of a Cornelius Fudge costume. AWESOME. In related news, the Snook and I hit The Costume Shop yesterday to finalize our outfits for this weekend. I found an awesome bikerish jacket that I think is going to be perfect for Tonks. (While the movie did not sway me towards purple hair, it definitely inspired me to take her in a more punkish direction.) The Snook also got a few Mundungus effects. Which reminds me: Do any of you Sydneysiders have any really gaudy costume jewelry you could loan us for the day? We’re looking for both “royal jewel” type stuff and also “evil goth” stuff. Please let me know if you can help us out!

Heh. I was hoping you’d say that. Anything that looks antiquey or possibly magical: chains, lockets, crucifixes, etc. Skull/bone stuff would be great too. (We got a few fake bone bracelets at the costume shop.) Not too big though, as we’re going to sew this stuff inside his overcoat. (His character is a thief who sells stuff.)

Ahh – tacky goth stuff?
I’ll see what I can dig up…

Oh yeah. Definitely the tacky stuff. (That’s what I meant by “evil goth”; not that any goths that I know per se are evil and/or tacky.) 🙂

Oh, and if you want a biker jacket (or two…) we can set you up with that as well….

I’m good; you’re gonna LOVE the one I got at the costume shop. It’s got fur at the cuffs and collar, and it looks very 80’s and cool. With that I got my black pants and my Docs. My “Weird Sisters” T-shirt that is being printed as we speak… And I’ve just started knitting the world’s quickest Hufflepuff scarf. (Who knew Tonks was a Huffle? I didn’t.) And for my “dress robes”, I got a little spangled velvet cape to throw on top. I figure Tonks wouldn’t go to a lot of trouble… 🙂

I’ve got a tiara Mundungus could have stolen if you want it.
