An Invasion of a "STRANGER" Kind.... NEW THREAD IS UP!! Go Thee NOW!

A pin of the real thing sounds like a great compromise. I wonder how many different ones they have to choose from?

I'm impressed by your World Showcase shopping list. It should make for an efficient shopping day, but it'll be interesting to see what happens when something isn't available, or you see something you like better. Hmmm, impulse buys?

Very cool idea for Italy! Guess there's no surprising Bekka with it though, eh? Seriously though, it's going to be so fun seeing the pics when you get back!

My bet is there may be some similar replacements if she can't find something on her list, but no impulse buys. (Put me down for $10 on that... )

I hope they have a nice selection! Although, the bigger the selection, the more shopping time it will take. I figure, if you can't get the real thing, get a mini version.

I am hoping by having a list, it will make it more efficient. I have always felt that WS is just too big to really see well, so if I can limit my time shopping, there will be more time for photos, people watching, snacking, etc...

I am not a huge shopper, so having a list will really only serve to keep me on track and get me in and out- scavenger hunt style!!

AND keeping it to $3-$5, it will severely limit the choices. I mean how many cheapo things does Disney really carry!!??

No, no surprises. She has wanted one for years, so now's the time. I can't wait to write my TR. I already have a theme and title. But no telling that yet!!

I think so!!!

What a tease!! Inquiring minds want to know

The mask pin is a great idea! Now, do you plan to wear it like a brooch, or display it in the house?

Still in the formulation stages...

Oddly enough, I really hadn't thought about that!! Wearing it as a brooch is a super idea!! I am wearing flouncy scarves more and more lately, and a brooch would be a nice addition to the bling.

 

[eandesmom]

the pin is a perfect idea. I love the masks, recall reading a really good book where the storyline involved the venetian carnivale and masks...I'll try to figure it out.

I'd love one of those red one's in my kitchen but $75?

 

[tinkgurl]

A mask pin is an awesome idea!

 

[GreatBiscuit]

Congrats on the definite plans! I can't wait to hear the details of your sojurn. Looking forward to the top secret title. I haven't used this emoticon in a while figured I'd throw it in.

 

[winkers]

I'm so far behind I'm not sure if I'm ahead...

can I have the readers digest version of what I've missed?

THey were all really, really beautiful, but VERY expensive. I think the very plainest, cheapest one was like $40.

Certainly cheaper than a full on, full-sized one.

Feels great to know now. We're actually toying with the idea of stopping in Germany for a day to visit a castle! Probably will be our last overseas anything for a very long time.

Let me just throw out ONE teensy hint. The TR will be "not your ordinary" chronological style one.

Just the souvenirs I'm hoping to get. And a big announcement that our dates are nailed down- Sept. 2-13

Quick post Liessa !!! Internet down am at the Library but I did start my TR and it's on the correct board Please spread the word as my time is running out !!!

 

[jenb1023]

Love the mini-masks! I am curious to see what you come up with for France - would they even bother to ring up a sale that is less than $5?

 

[tinkgurl]

Certainly cheaper than a full on, full-sized one.

And easier to get home!

 

[jenbear123]

Those masks say three words to me: Eyes Wide Shut (if you know Stanley Kubrick movies, you'll know what I'm talking about ) Although I doubt Leisa will use those masks for that purpose!

I'm loving these shopping around the World ideas. Makes me think of how I should be spending my money when I'm there..... in TWO days

I will go look right now! Sorry I wasn't on last night to join the fun, I was so tired, and went to bed early. Now I'm probably on page 15!

Ah, I have 2 ideas for France, but that's not for a while yet!! I still have the US, Japan, and Morocco yet. You'll have to wait in utter suspense.

And easier to get home!

HA!! THat's true!

By the way, I was thinking about Tate's trip to EPCOT, and realized her wardrobe wouldn't be complete without being prepared for activities such as this:




Right, Cherie???

 

[pipersmom]

Oh goodness..I'm waiting for the pic to load and wondering if I even want to know!
Hmm..okay, what is Tate dressed for please?

 

[All7OfUs]

Well, it didn't turn out quite as well as I would have liked, so will tweak it a
little more, but if I recall, Cherie has quite a knack for spotting pole dancers in World Showcase!!

I think it needs some bead work on the top half.
