Mom needs to make an angel costume, but she doesn't want wings. Nephew wants a better costume than the cruddy one the church has for the High Priest (it's just a fugly robe, nothing else). Where can they turn for costuming ideas and painful historical accuracy?
Oh, that's right. Me.
So I suggested that Mom replace the wings with golden streamers to represent Glory. She likes the idea. I didn't tell her I stole that from Diablo II. Don't you tell her either.
For the nephew, I found a picture of the traditional garb worn by Levite High Priests. That's got enough bling to satisfy anyone. He's happy now. I also sent pictures of garb worn by noblewomen of Ancient Judah in case my niece suddenly decides her costume is boring (she will, she's been trying to steal my bangle collection for years).
