Went with option #3 for the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 2, which I may or may not discuss later. In short, I had such a marvelous time with friends and the movie was a satisfyingly fun conclusion to the saga (at least it was for me anyways).
For now, here is my ode to Luna and her marvelous Lion Hat (pictured below; photo taken from photobucket).
First, I went to Goodwill and purchased two items. Item number one quickly lost its widdle head.
Awwww, item number two -- the Lion.
Little lion was decapitated and defaced.
I sewed the lion face onto the bear head because the bear was the biggest stuffed animal head I could find. I pulled out the stuffing and it made a nice cap for my head. Admittedly the bear ears with the lion face look slightly comical.
And now for the fun part. Anna and I raided the Michael's ribbon clearance bin and found all sorts of fun embellishments. I sticthed them all over the back of the head to create the wildly elaborate mane. How long did it take me? Two and a half movies. Not bad, eh?
And yes, I do have pictures of me in the hat, which I will post later....
