It’s that time again. HOMECOMING!!!
This is Eldest’s senior year, and she really, really wanted a tacky Homecoming mum for her last year in high school.
I could not pass up the challenge. I purchased the required flower, backing and ribbons, and added to it feathers, a boa, Christmas strands, and a gaudy chandelier drop I found. I would have used LED lights, but that was sooooo 2011.
And my niece’s will have zebra striped ribbon, huge bells, and glitter!!
Very tacky, and I for one love it. I’m of the opinion that one should stand out. One should not go through Life unnoticed 😉

Is this a corsage, or something she hangs on her locker?!

You actually wear it like a corsage. A very long, very tacky corsage 😉

This is her fourth, and I just stocked up on the stuff when it goes on clearance. It can sure put a dent in your checkbook!

So where’s the machete hidden? Is it behind the big fluffy thing in the middle?

Heh. I’m also guessing, when you had one of these your senior year, it was decorated with the scalps of your defeated enemies, and held together with blood and raw badassitude, right?

HA! My so-called boyfriend forgot to order one. He was a football player, so I guess it wasn’t important.
I think I fashioned my first voodoo doll after that 😀
