okay, really obsessing about the sari. googling sari shops and ogling really expensive versions, trying to figure what mine would have cost new ($150? $300?). searching in vain for indian jewelry shops in town, thinking of just going door to door asking for an import shop. i want a full kundan set like this:




bombayfashions.com

it includes the tikka, the pendant that sits in the part of your hair and dangles on your forehead. ooooh i really just need to find one good store. or maybe the hippies at the saturday market stalls downtown will have the right kind of thing.

tonight i am making a sari petticoat. i don't have anything that would work -- it has to be floor length and with a string tie, not an elastic. so i am making one out of some bits of fabric in my stash that i probably wouldn't use otherwise.
