OMG OMG, how cute is this wig?
[link]
I need to find it a) in the adult size (the teen runs small) and b) in STOCK
Dood. As a Raggedy Ann purist I object to the ponytails, but my non-pony options are a) make one (scary!) or b) turn a red one black (I'm thinking "magic marker")
Trudy, did I ever tell you about the year my sister dressed up as Raggedy Ann for Halloween? She was working at JoAnn Fabrics part-time that night, so she went in costume (she had made the outfit herself, so it was appropriate for work). One of the customers that night had a toddler-aged girl in a stroller with her, and the child just stared at Kris the entire time, saying "Rag Ann! Rag Ann!"
My personal favorite adult costume of my own was when I bought a white apron and chef's hat and made up a book cover with the title, "How to Serve Man," which I carried around the bookstore that night while working. No one got it, though!!
That wig is adorable. I want your whole costume, Trudes! CUTE!

Loooo-zers!
I actually dressed as Raggedy Ann for my little sister's birthday party when I was six or seven (the other year we were pandas). My next door neighbor Steven was Andy. My Grandmother and Mother made the costumes -- complete with wigs. Gramma is gone and Mom's hands won't do that anymore. Even if I could dig up a
mumble
year old pattern its doubtful I could pull off the work they could do. It is also entirely possible my Grandmother free-handed the whole shebang.

I'm loving this thing like cray. zee. I need to find a cheap large size white blouse with puffy sleeves to turn into bloomers.
Oh yay, Halloween goodies!
Aims, what sort of wide bat necklace? Because there's this one, which is the classic one: [link]
Or this one, which is insanely expensive, but ohgoodness, I want it: [link]
Jilli - the first one is perfect!!! I need to get financial approval first.
