    DO NOT BUY ACRYLIC FELT. acrylic felt is not woven - it's held together by chemicals and heat, i believe. it will not stand up to washing at all. it's really only meant to be used for costumes, where it won't be washed often.

    Funeral arrangements

    i haven't thought about it much, beyond desiring cremation over burying. i think having one's ashes scattered would be better than being stuck in an urn forever... not that it really matters though!

    Can you help me date this item??

    hey, i forgot to give a THANK YOU to the ladies who tackled my red-dress query. i think i need to listen to my instincts more - i had guessed it was a mid-20th-century "old fashioned" costume! lol now if i could only figure out what the heck to do with it!

    darhling, it doesn't have a TON of shaping, but the front has a power-mesh panel and cups, which help a lot. i actually wish there was a bit in the back, too. it really pulls in my stomach and makes my waist look more defined. i took a picture! please excuse the bike helmet-hair and flushed...
