costume help?

[jipsyjune.livejournal.com]

hello all!

so my roomies and i are dressing up for halloween as non-slutty disney princesses. we're got aurora, cinderella, jasmine and belle covered. we went and bought fabric and boning and everything and are going to begin cutting and sewing tonight as college students don't have very much free time. i promise, i'll post pics when we're all transformed.

now my question to you all is....i need to find jasmine's jewellry...her gold earrings and necklace...but most importantly her jewelled hairband and the belt thingie. but i went to michael's and jo-ann's and i could not find big enough jewelled thingies. i rememer them from when i was young..these half fake jewels that had flat backs...but they seem to have disappeared?

anyone have any idea where i can find a couple of those, preferrably not too expensively?

also, has anyone made any of these costumes at home? for adult sizes? because pictures would be lovely....at the moment we're improvising from period ball gown patterns, men's pj pants patterns and oversizing children's puff sleeves....so any help from anyone would be great!

thanks in advance!
