When I was little my Mum's friend had a dress up box for her daughters.
Have you ever put one together for some children?
Lucie's church sounds like a wonderful treasure trove for that type of thing and reminded me of it.
My friend's box/basket had a hula skirt in it.

Linda, over the years, I have sewn dress up clothes for my boys...bought special belts and scarves and hats from the church basement's sales...we have Robin hood outfits I made, many capes of different colors---our boys would share with the other kids--I had made a few extras....we have a blackone, a sgold one, a red shiny one and I also made two neon green and blue batman outfits! I should scan some pics to show you. The boys were so cute when they little. I'm still saving it...Patrick still plays with the costumes...I've added 3 colored wigs I bought at a $1 each after Halloween....for next year...my big boys still go trick or treating....lol...imagine that. Linda, you're right about my church...they hold thrift sales wedsay, thursday and saterday...the moeny goes to help differetn charities and people in need....and you would be suprised to see what we find there. I love going---for it is like a treasure hunt.

Wow. Robin Hood sounds great as well. When you get a chance it would be lovely to see them.
It is hard to remember, but I know the boys had a power ranger suit. The girls use it sometimes. The black has been very adaptable.
