I got a little stuffed tiger that I'm going to call "Boof." This is from a story idea I had for my daughter, except Boof was a Monsters, Inc.-style shaggy friendly monster, and Miss Lily was
a teacher.

I found some socks. One pair, knee-high, is white w/hearts in the colors that go with the set up. The other pair is striped, but only trouser-length.

I'm not going to do a "white face," but I think I'll put flowers--maybe lilies--on my cheeks in place of dots. I will paint on a red nose, of course, but I still have to figure the rest out. The mom at the birthday party tomorrow (which I was only going to face paint) is thrilled that I'd like to go as a clown. I told her it's new and not 100% settled yet, but I can have it be presentable.

Oh, and the "loud" capri pants are hot pink, lime and neon greens, and white. The floral-paisley print is very large. The funny thing is that they're a "petite" size, and I'm tall. But I wanted short, so this works. I think the heart-socks are good. Also, the big "clown" tie from the party store is pink with a big flower print. I'll be wearing a bright yellow shirt under the royal blue jacket.

Loud and proud is Miss Lily!

I'll have the hubby take pic's of this. If I don't break my lovely Canon Digital Rebel, I'll share w'yas!

Thanks so much!

BTW, "Boof" will sit in a conspicuous place, maybe on the orange bag I got, and "watch" as I paint faces and tell a story or three. Wish me luck--it's my first gig!
