I'm going to Fiona's today to make a mask.
Things to get:
Cowrie shell necklace (from some second hand store -- I'll check at VV)
Masking tape
"Cross-stitch" plastic mesh
Turquoisite-Green yarn
Things to *maybe* get:
Glue Gun (cold)
Black feathers
Black shoe polish (though I think I have some of this already)
Beads of some sort -- preferably ones that look like they could be bone.
I think it would be kind of cook to do a bunch of masks... seasonal masks, maybe...
I could do a White paper & aluminum-foil face w/ white and silver-shot hair and ice crystals on the brow for winter. Which I think would be really cool.
It's kind of funny. The mask I want to make has ram's horns curling from the forehead out and down the sides, but the face that turns up in my head is a wierd version of a false face. (Maybe I should make one of the horns crumpled?).
Anywhoo. That's thought number one. :-)
Thought number two:
On a completely different note:
The wonderful people at LunaPads (reusable menstruation product pervayors) have offered to advertise (read: print a short blurb about) my thesis topic, asking for participants. This will go out to 3500 people! Score! But: I need to come up with an appropriate blurb. This is what I've got so far.
Allison Armstrong (Goddess Celebrant and MA student at U of O) is studying Canadian Pagan women's relationships with their bodies in terms of their experience with menstruation, birth, and other related "womanly stuff", and how this relationship is effected by their practice of Goddess Spirituality.
She is seeking volunteers from across Canada to respond to surveys on this subject, as well as women who would be comfortable participating in more in-depth interviews (most likely using the method of private online chats) or who would like to share their stories about menstruation, child-birth, menopause, and menarche and/or related rituals in-which they have participated.
If you are a Canadian woman who self-identifies as Pagan/Neo-Pagan and as a Goddess Celebrant or a practitioner of Goddess Spirituality/Worship, and would be interested in participating in this study, please contact Allison at:

What do you think? I need to edit it for length, but I also need to be able to say everything that's in there.
I'm hoping that, say, Absinthehearts (as well as everyone else) will have some suggestions for me. :-)
Oh. P.S.: Anyone fitting the description mentioned in the final paragraph and reading this now can feel free to participate as well. :-)
