A millionaire's outfit!

georgiac

My children are doing a "millionaire" theme for book week and I need to buy/make outfits.

For my son we have an old top hat, I'll make a cane and tasche and he can be Mr Monopoly.

But we are struggling for my daughter.

I just wondered if anyone has seen any beach towles with a dollar/pound on them like these -

or fabric material with similar on - that I could stitch up into a dress?

Thanks

What I would do is get loads of bling - I'm sure you could get something in Claire's with a massive stone in it, a cheap tiara too, and a nice looking dress. I always think it's the accessories that make the costume.

Thanks Jane, unfortunately DD hates posh frocks which is a real pain as we have 30+ bridesmaid dresses that would look wonderful on her.

Just a pity, postage is so expensive.

I will try local party shops first but will bear that one in mind.

Most people that know me do not equate me and £££'s in the same thought!
