Wish I was so crafty!! I am working on coming up with a steampunk-inspired bellydance costume for TRF this fall and am reworking some goodwill finds for it, but I have a lot harder time imagining what things could be than she evidently does!! BTW, have you heard of the fairly newish fad for a fun way to get in shape? It's hooping!! I'm gonna be getting my first good hooping hoop in the next week or so and am pretty stoked!!
