Beauty & The Beast Photos....as Promised!!

Alright, here they are....in all of their dark and fuzzy glory!! :(

You know how that goes. We weren't allowed to take photos or

video the nights of the play because there was a professional

photographer there taking photos who is now charging $3 per

every 4x6 (yikes!) so while helping out with the set and costumes

I stayed to watch the full dress rehearsal and was lucky enough

in a completely blacked out school gym to get these shots.

this is Belle's cottage that took up most of

my painting time and started as two sheets

of insulation board and with the help of the

in house carpenter I turned it into this

this is the Beast's library in his castle

that he gives to Belle, it's the backside

of Belle's cottage so I painted the walls

green, stamped the gold flourished,

stained a somewhat put together

bookcase, made gold trim for it with

insulation board, used book wallpaper

border to make the shelves look more

full and fill it up with real books and

accessories

here is the Cogsworth costume that I made

Belle in her village

to be human again!

Yes, you may have picked up from the photos

that there were two Belle's and two of a couple

others also. A few of the major rolls had Fri.

night people and others for Sat. night.

This was tons of work but so much fun and

the kids did such a fabulous job...better than

I ever expected!! Looking forward to next year!

Have a wonderful weekend,
