So its done

I've seen ROTS twice now. We did lots of trooping and the whole thing has been pretty amazing. Our groups raised over $2700 (!) for The Jimmy Fund at the Danvers Liberty Tree theater over two days and we made a lot of little kids and adults smile. Wow. This my friends, is what its all about.

I'm looking forward to sitting on my butt a bit this week and cleaning up my house. Then its on to tackle 2 dance recitals and some more sewing projects.

The Leia gown seems to be a hit. I was asked to be Leia at some of the Boston Museum of Science events around their Science of Star Wars exhibit that will open on October 27th. I just need to figure out how to get the hair buns perfect first, but there is still time for that.

Many links with pictures to follow at some point soon :)

Since I'm not a girl :)

What does "back comb" mean?

The problem with the Leia buns isn't neatness - the problem is I don't have enough hair to do them properlly. I need to get some kind of extentions or hairpiece or something . . .

"*LOL* heh.. back combing is essentially the same as teasing and/or combing it in the "wrong" direction."

Ah, OK - I know all about that! :)

They are braided pigtails that are then put into buns, so I'm not sure how braiding the nappy/teased hair would work (its worth a try though).
