The rain has finally stopped today! Its still a little cloudy but it is nice to be able to go outside once more. I spent the morning relaxing and watched Red Riding Hood which was both charming and amusing. I am quite enamoured of her capelet though! I think I must do a Riding Hood outfit some day. It was made in the late 80’s and has Isabella Rosselini in it, she is so beautiful!

In the afternoon I went to the craft store with Mirai, Clara and Trina. They were looking for some costume materials and I amused myself with pretty ribbons and pearls and jeweled beads. I bought some more pink velvet ribbon, some blue grosgrain, pink grosgrain with white polka dots, and the most adorable ribbon embroidered with little hearts! I also bought some more glass pearls, pink and blue chandelier beads and some gold lockets We spent the evening sewing and in my case making jewelry. I finished another choker and a twin strand pearl chain to attach to skirt waists and collars à la Angelic Pretty. Mirai made us a yummy dinner too.
