You're welcome, Samsara!  It's fun to outfit a tribal dancer!

Okay, so I managed to get some photos today of my amazing swap package from MissingWillow! 
A totally gorgeous tassel belt - I don't have a tassel belt so I was blown away with this!!

Some tribal pantaloons in a subtle grey/green colour with a paisley print detail

An Assuit Turkish vest for me to take in (it's a little on the big side but MissingWillow was kind enough to send it to me from her personal dance wardrobe!)

A lovely purple tie choli with long flowing sleeves

A costuming book crammed full of ideas

And last but by no means least, a personalised glazed pot made specially for me by MissingWillow


I absolutely adore everything - thank you so much MissingWillow I hope you like my package as much as I love yours! I can't wait for rehearsal next week so that I can show off some of my new clobber *lol*

[Kookaloo_Starr]

FANTASTIC !!

I don't know where to start with my oohing & ahhing 
I've been after that costuming book for ages so I'm green with envy Ginny! The pantaloons, choli,vest and belt are all perfect - and the glazed box with the lotus flower, beautiful. You're one lucky swapper

I know *heehee!* And don't worry Kookie, I'll share the book with you

[MissingWillow]

Every tribal dancer needs a tassel belt, Ginny!  So glad you like everything, it's fun to help costume someone in the UK all the way from Virginia.

It's amazing how much costuming can take over your life *lol*
Right, I've updated the sender and receivers list on page 1; if everyone could check that their status is correct and let me know if I've made a mistake, that would be very much appreciated!!

I received a great package from Monnie31.  I love it!!

Monnie made a cute little bucket/cat hat for my little monster.  She kept saying "Cat- Meow"


A reuseable bag with a clip on it. That way I can clip it to my other bags, now if I can remember to grab them and use them. And lots of Tea.  I love tea - all different kinds.  Thanks.


Rainbow-ie arm warmers.  I read her note and they are actually leg warmmers but I like them this way (sorry monnie)


knitted slippers.  I have had them on all day, they are are so toasty.  My hub is jealous so now I have to make him some. The bottoms are thicker and with purple in them .


Wrap/Scarf.  This one will be fought over at work. Both of my administrators love animal print. 


Wrap/Scarf. This one is really warm.  Since I live in Florida (and our winter is pretty much over) I'm going to use this as an alter cloth until it gets colder again.


And now my favorite part!  Monnie made me bath salts, lotion, a shave bar, and sugar scrub with lavendar!  My favorite smell ever.  I can't stop smelling it. Thank you so much.  It was all stored in a handmade bag. Oh and there was a handmade pendulum.


Thanks Monnie! I love it. I can't wait until you get yours I hope you like it too.
