I thought you would get a kick out of my fairy princess helmet (you know, for the safety conscious fairy princess!)
It is part of my costume for the 3Day...I also have giant pink wings and a fairy wand!

This is awesome! Good luck to you in the 3-Day!
Beautiful!!!! You'll be perfect! Here's me, in front of the Capitol on the DC 3-Day! Wings, tutu, pink leopard ears..
edit: oops - wasn't wearing wings in DC. Saved them for the Atlanta 3-Day!
I am on route safety, so I will be a bicycle fairy patrolling the walkers, LOL! Should be interesting with wings and a princess fairy helmet!
Love the pink helmet but I would love to see the finished costume, sounds brilliant.
I tried to sponsor you but it does not accept Paypal, peraps you can PM me your Paypal details then put the money on for me, it will only be $10, as the ol' pennies are a bit tight at the moment.
Good luck for the big day.

I love the costume, Leslie!!! I have some tutu making material, but I haven't decided if I am going to do that yet...and a pink boa (just cause I like it!) and some pink striped leg and arm warmers. I picked up two pairs of long toe sock and cut off the feet and voila!!! leg and arm warmers! These are my wings...
Rikki wears her wings on the motorcycle - they're good up to about 50 mph... Most of my Atlanta crew wore wings this year - not a problem at all. Well, except in the portapotties....Quote:

I suspect I know what I'll be doing all day.
I'm not at ALL creative or crafty - I bought 'em - one in pink and black, the other in black and pink, from pettiskirtstyle.com They're expensive, but I do at least three 3-Days a year, and well, they get abused, so the quality of these makes them stand up to the abuse. (There's a ton of pictures of me sitting on the ground in a puddle of tulle.) Oddly enough, the fluff gets them up and out of the way of my saddle when I'm riding.Quote:

Yup, a serious discussion about the properties of a tutu on a bike. :)
Awesome! I can get an idea of how they are made from the website. I have some shiny pink oriental type material and some pink tulle.
Mary, if you're on Facebook, I'll friend you. You can see all the photos of me and the rest of the crews (for some reason, no one from the Denver 3-Day posted anything, but from DC and Atlanta) to give you ideas of how other folks have done their "uniforms" for the 3-Day.
Yay!! Here is my fb profile page
Love it! Good luck on the 3-Day. :)
Beautiful! I want one!
Ok, here is my fairy princess skirt!
Fabulous!!!!
ok here is the final outfit....
um...what's a 3-Day?
I love the tutus!
Got it, thanks. Fabulous helmet.
