Mindful of Rachel's tiresome dictate that we include costumes in our (already ill-fated, it seems to me) Ugly Duckling presentation, I went out looking. Found an unadorned straw hat, kind of unisex, at the SOCH thrift store for two bucks, which I think will do for the prince. Went to A.C. Moore and picked up some long, fancy feathers to add.
Home, I sewed up the brim on one side to make it look properly rakish, I hope, and tied a neon-green scarf around the crown, then stuck in a long brown and black feather. It actually looks pretty good and does suggests the chapeau of a prince in fairy-tale land.
Other than that, and mundane domestic chores, I didn't do a whole lot productive.
