Dance props galore
My collection of accoutrement from different dance forms keep growing.
I have hip scarves, veils, zills, saidi canes, petal skirts, harem pants for bellydance.
I have pau skirts, leis, flower crowns and wristlets for Hawaiian hula.
I have top hat, waist coat, tails, bow ties and cane for Broadway jazz.
I have boas, masks, headress, showgirl costumes, vinyl suits etc etc.
Of course I saw it all coming when I took up folk dance, but I put off the inevitable for as long as I could. I really really have a mind-block about this prop. But the day of reckoning has arrived.
I now add - to my already huge collection of dance accoutrement - the Chinese silk fan! *cringe*
p.s. does it make it any better if I tell you my fan is "watermelon" with the green rind, red meat and black seeds? *double cringe*

Wings of ISIS
this totally shows your love for life :)
cant say much about the melon colored chinese fan tho :P
bunny - you have MORE accessories than me, i'm sure. ooh..black feather fans for ATS and wings of isis!! they are beautiful.
gu niang pink fans? then you need pink gu niang samfoo costume, gu niang make up and gu niang braided hair with pink fluffy ties haha
i think that's what makes me cringe about the cheena costumes...i am really too old and too tall for this cute pretty gu niang stuff.
tuti - soon. and thanks :)
edpj - i think it shows i have a hard time telling the aunties NO! I DON'T WANT!
you think the lotus pink and white may be better? haha
i was going to say that it's very cheena leh. and no, the pink and white wouldn't be better! nothing more stylish like....black?
DO NOT, for whatever reason, bun your hair. DO NOT. Not one bun and definitely not 2 buns atop. Go imagine.
imp - black so not in with the cheenas :(
i forgot all about the hair buns! *cringe cringe cringe* haha
