FEATHERS

Do I have feathers?
yes I do!
I have ostrich feathers, parrot feathers, pheasant feathers, chicken feathers, feathers on masks, feathers on hats, boas, peacock feathers in a vase, feather dusters, feather fans & feather tiaras (1920 style).
I got some of mine at the Fly fishing store in Island city. They have a half off box that I used for the Hello Dolly hats.
I also get feathers at yard sales.

Feathers

Feathers are fun.
Feathers don't weigh a ton.
Feathers? Yes I have some.
And I am not glum.

Phantom tickets

We got free tickets for Phantom of the Opera because they needed a couple of costume items.
Denise Wheeler called, they needed a white negligee and 8 dresses for the Don Juan rehearsal number. She also took a coat with cape for Hannibal to wear just before he is murdered. They put my name in the program! YES!
We loved the show, excellent costumes, fun scenery, and powerful voices!
There was a full house and a standing ovation.
Denise says the tickets are all sold out for the rest of the week.
My negligee made the front page of the Observer on Tuesday night. ta dah!
Here is an article from the EOU website.
