who can find me sites for how to create time period headdresses and hats, and mardi gras masks?

Aug 04, 2008 by cerealkillerchicky | Posted in Other - Arts & Humanities

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.

You're probably already familiar with

With copycat festivals around the world, the original draws well over a million participants annually in August in Berlin and the Ruhr region in Germany. In essence, the festival is a rave of epic proportions.

12. Fringe Festival - Edinburgh, Scotland

Edinburgh is a beautiful town to visit the worst of times, so why not head down for the largest arts festival in the world?The mother of all the Fringe Festival has everything, with over 200 shows as many rooms.

11. Oktoberfest - Munich, Germany This ten day free-for-all that the rest seems rather innocent in terms of nudity, tickling frivolous parades of costumes and drunken debauchery. The pace will certainly happen to you, the rum flows in the streets 24 hours a day. The Hits climax on the last day of celebrations with a parade in period costume along historic Duval Street. Southern Silliness meets Eyes Wide Shut as imitators don masks and take the dress outrageous all inhibitions go.Body-painting, freak shows and toga parties have led to this year's theme: "Circus & Sideshows" that will not disappoint even the most outrageous.

8. Las Fallas, Valencia, Spain (March 12-19) By far the most famous and double drink-fest we know, the annual beer-fest begins noon, then mayor of Munich pulls the first pint after a big parade in the streets the city. The local brewers fight for bragging rights by highlighting their massive arsenal. The Hofbrauhaus attracts masses and rowdiest Hottest Party.Be sure to arrive before 10:30, because the servers are not those who sit (oh, the place is generally packed per 11 hours). Before you know, you're reminiscing with your long-lost (and unknown) friend Hans and extolling the virtues of drinking German style....
