Unrelated squee concerning my closet
Oct. 5th, 2008 07:40 pm1. I now have multiple categorized costume boxes. There's a Goth Box, a Sparkly and Weird Box (some overlap there), a Relatively Normal Modern America Box*, and an Archaic and Miscellaneous Box. That's for actual clothing items; masks, gloves, etcetera, remain at present unsorted and filed, though I have obtained a cheapass bureau from Ikea for that exact purpose.
An even vaguely organized costume closet is something I've wanted for years, and folks are of course free to borrow from it for LARPage.
2. I have considerably more yarn than somebody who barely knits due to hand pain will ever use. Local knitting types, would you be interested in a Raid Tory's Yarn party? Some of it may be project-specific and something I would be reluctant to part with, but in general...too much. Mostly going to be wool, novelty, and random black crap.
*This particular box contains what is probably my VERY FAVORITE costume piece that I own. I've never had reason to use it; it's incredibly character-specific, one of those little things that speaks VOLUMES about the sort of person who'd actually wear it.
