A Supply Run

4/12/2015

Yesterday afternoon we took a quick little trip to downtown Toronto to visit Arton's Beads and Sussman's Bridal on Queen Street. I bought some turquoise lame and sequin fabric for Peach, who still hasn't decided which Disney princess she wants to be for her Birthday Princess party coming up in May - either Elsa from Frozen, or Cinderella in her ball gown from the new movie.

I stocked up on some trim from Sussman's Bridal shop. I could so take home almost everything in that store!! But I resisted and focussed on trims I know I've run out of and can't get anywhere around home. At Arton's I stocked up on small round metal beads and findings for studs and embellishments for the series of fantasy costumes I need to start for my little ones....

There's the most amazing fabric shops down on Queen Street, and it's fun to just go in and look sometimes, as most I'd never buy. Some are hundreds of dollars per yard! But wow, so gorgeous! Anyway, I resisted temptation and pretty much focussed on what I was going there for.

My Milly boy will be the leader of a small fantasy group. I've been looking at LOTR costume designs, and Brian Froud's Goblin illustrations for inspiration. It will be interesting making 'Barbarian' costumes that small, especially for cute little kids.
