Costume Done!

Posted on by

Well, here it is. I spent all day working on my masquerade costume for New Year’s Eve when we play at The Frontier Club in Meridian. I had bought this dress at a thrift store a couple of years ago for like $5 with the intention of using it for something and it was perfect for my saloon girl dress. It was actually pretty easy, I just slit the front open, sewed the two sides, punched holes and ran satin ribbon criss cross through it for a bodice. Then I slit the front of the waist down and made a drape effect to show the red satin lining. I still have to finish the mask, so far I have put a black glitter glue design around the eyes and added the red and peacock feathers. I have to wait for the glue to dry over night and I am going to punch a hole under the feathers and add some satin ribbon strands under the feathers. After that all I need is fishnet hose and I am ready! What do you think? I am very pleased with the results and think it’s gonna look really cute…. Miss Lilly requested that I post another song so I am posting our live version of Landslide from the BoEx benefit gig for Baby Maxwell on October the 26th, hope you enjoy! :)

About FFCC

Freedom From the Chemical Carousel (FFCC) is a new group forming in the Boise, Idaho area for alcoholics and by alcoholics. This not an AA group and there is no discussion of religion/prayers at any time during the group. The groups premise is based on current medical knowledge available and shared with the group to give the suffering alcoholic hope. We also don't keep milestones as we feel that the desire to quit is more important than the length of time a person has been sober because we all know that relapse is so very hard to prevent and when you have milestones held over your head it may make you feel guilty if you falter causing you to fall away from your attempt at sobriety. The only requirement is a desire to get off the sick chemical carousel. There are no fees, no expectations, nothing to buy. All the information is free and is given freely in the hope that what they have learned can help another alcoholic.
