Feather Dancer who can find me sites for how to create time period headdresses and hats, and mardi gras masks?
i want to know exactly how to create these things like a tai dancers headdress, a 30s or 40s style hat, mardi gras masks with feathers preferrably but the other styles too. how do the women in vegas make the dancers headdresses and how the hell do they stay on their heads?
This is only one link from
http://www.gather.com/
but the following sounds encouraging:
"A group for historical reenactors of all time periods to share informaion, resources and experiences."
The group is at
http://histreenactment.gather.com/
and several groups are returned in searches for such terms as arts, crafts, costumes, hats, and combinations of such terms.
The main group page is at
http://www.gather.com/groups.action
but you may have to scroll down to see the search box specifically for groups. The one at the upper right is probably the search box for the entire site.
