I was a wee bit successful. That was when I was a middle school librarian. I am retired. But, a few years ago I was at the Texas Renaissance Festival. It was near the end of the day and I'd left my phone in my bag when I went into the ladies. As I was leaving, a girl came in dressed as Sabriel. I stopped dead and said, "Abhorsen? From the series?" She smiled and said yes. I replied, "That is a fabulous costume with an awesome set of bell." Her bandolier was terrific and she was wearing a lovely blue and gold key surcoat. I didn't think I should run to get my phone. I really regret not doing it.Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03914970140366212583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1753359106652907689.post-27470435152979266482017-03-15T13:01:02.882-07:002017-03-15T13:01:02.882-07:00This is amazing!

It looks so good!)<br />I'm curious what the bells sound like :o Do you have a video of them in action?zuzuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04411851718243895198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1753359106652907689.post-39734197274153171222016-10-13T16:20:28.105-07:002016-10-13T16:20:28.105-07:00You're so welcome, and thank you as well!
