costume stuff

So let's just start off by saying finding a knife fake blood and a tiara were much harder than I expected. I went to 3 party citys and the selection was SO small since it's after halloween. I was able to find a knife that fills up with "blood" when you tilt it down, but that was the only thing that i actually was happy with. i got 2 tiaras for kerry to choose from because the only tiaras they had that didn't say "happy birthday" or "princess" had small disney pictures or were never meant to fit on a head past the age of 4 years old. The fake blood was a problem too because the label even says it may stain clothes, but it was the only kind they had and ordering from online with express shipping to get here on time was about$40. Thanks, but no thanks that price is a little ridiculous. Now i just have to figure out how to rig the knife so that blood will "squirt" somehow when Kerry slices Nase. Nase, if you see this, try to use an older shirt that you don't care about because ,I'd hate to ruin a nice shirt of yours but I wasn't able to find any fake blood that said it wouldn't stain( and I don't have your number). The last piece I have to get is a water gun, but since I have to go to my mom's house in Staten Island today my boyfriend said he's going to help me because the last time I tried to spray paint the bottle exploded on me, once again reinforcing I am not the artistic kind, and I definitely don't have time to start experimenting now. I just want to get it done and make it look authentic enough for them to use during the Hamlet sketch. It really is so annoying because Anthony has a realistic looking paintball gun but it's apparently illegal to bring into NYC and we'd really rather not get into trouble over it. I'm actually kind of excited just to see how this is all going to work out since I've never done anything like this before. Oh well, time to go get the spray paint, wish me luck!
