So its done

[dancerjodi]

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 :)

Leia buns

Sorry for butting in. ^_~ I noticed I was added. lol.

Would this (http://www.geocities.com/starfilly714/hair/trildirections.html) be of any help, or have you seen it already? It kind of makes it look very generic and sound simpler than it really is. I just experimented for kicks to see if it works, and it seemed to work decently--and I've got a ton of hair. ^_^ You really do make an awesome Leia.

Thanks for the link. I hadn't seen that particular one, but the instructions were pretty much what I had seen before. I think I just rolled my hair too tightly or something (the buns were going out rather than around/down - if that makes any sense).

I need to figure out the Slave Leia hair too - whee fun! :)
