Kat's birthday weekend

[jennylafleur]

Last weekend I had a lovely time traveling north to madamekat's birthday gala. isabelladangelo and I were rather like the Keystone Cops getting up there (and getting dressed) but once we got to the party I had a wonderful time. It was great fun hanging out with the costuming contingent including laracorsets, blackcat452, & dragoneyes19 - yay for talking and meeting internet people in person!

I wore one of my most favorite "this-old-things", my sparkly Regency dress and the Golden Diadem Bridget made me. It was fun to pull them of the closet and wear them again.


One of the reasons I didn't try to make anything new to wear was I was too busy making a birthday gift for Kat! I made a little beaded bag. I quite fell in love with the little bat design, especially once I put the sequin eyes on him, he really came to life. I might need to make one for myself now! I used the 2.5mm silver and 3mm gunmetal sequins I just bought from Cartwright's. Yay!

The day after the party madamekat took us to the famous Jomar. It was quite the experience and I found a couple of neat things, but more on that later... :>

My photos from the party can be found here on Flickr.

That purse is way to cute to only make one!

Of course I might consider a different shape...that is if I were to have one made for me...hint...hint...

LOL. What you wouldn't want a whole collection of that shape purse? :>

Never really pegged you as a bat girl. You know somehow you still managed to surprise me sometimes.
