I'm on a bit of a wedding roll at the moment - even if it is 10 months away....

I am looking for a masquerade / venitian-style mask on a stick. I have looked in Atkinsons, joke shops and ebay but I can't see exactly what I want. I want a mask thats cream and plum / mullbery but I don't want feathers and ideally not too bling. A small pearl detail would be cool.

Any thoughts?

Sounds like a good excuse for a weekend trip to Venice! There are shed loads there!

LOL, I love your logic - alas I was hoping for something a little cheaper.

There must be somewhere in the region or an arty type who could make one?

craft shops sell plain ones you could decorate yourself?

Have you tried the party shops on divison street or the 2 on eccy road. Ive seem then in one of the shops but cant remember where.

I've seen the ones on Division Street - not found anything 'perfect' yet.

Decorating my own might be an idea, I just don't trust myself

try be inspired on fulwood road,they have a fancy dress section!

Thanks I'll give it a go

There's a shop at Woodseats that has them - Molly Limpett's Theatre Emporium.
It's on the right side heading out of town kind of near Blundells I think.

I have been up to be inspired today and angela has got in masks she said you can nip up and have a look or she can order you what you want as long as she has plenty of notice

Thanks I'll have to have a look in these shops - wish there was soemthing nearer to the centre as I don't drive but I've got plenty of time :)

I have also found this website: http://www.masksofvenice.co.uk/ I like one of the luxury range except for the mock jewel charms so have contacted them.

they are really nice, i like the silver and black one

i know it seems a bit far but metro centure in newcastle
a chinnise lady has a stall there and she makes them for you
they do look very very nice :love:

Have you tried Alice Takes A Trip in the forum - i think she makes them herself so you could probs have a lot of input.
