This is another School Activity, quebarbaridad! This school never run out of production numbers…
So this December, from purring little kittens, they become winged babies…angels. I tried making her a wing out on a box of nachos I asked from the minigrocery, bought cottons, feathers and they cost 42 pesos per bundle which I had so much difficulty looking for and they have a smell of poultry stench…and yes, I have to scrimp for a bottle of Elmers glue, bought a pack of starch for gawgaw/home-made paste. I suddenly remember Mama Nene, making this and she would use it to make tons of pambalot ng tinapa from newspapers, and then she will sell them at the market.
I remember helping her make those…sigh
So the wings turned out to be a disaster, yay. Back in highschool, I am always assigned on the props department . So I guess I no longer have the creative prowess of making things like angel wings, I just only have the stage mama in me
And then I saw this ready-made angel wings at the Dept . Store for 170 pesos, ok thanks. I spent so much with my handmade wings. And then the halo…why on earth that I couldn’t find a feathered or a furry boa…sniff. They don’t even have it on Pambansang Bookstore. And yes the white dress and the white shoes that she will have to wear. Good thing, I bought her this little white dress which I think isa little too expensive but I bought it anyway…because I like it for her, So I don’t have to worry about it, just the shoes.
She is very excited to be an angel…And I am sold, I bought her a new pair of shoes. I’m still scrimping though…hehe
