Okay, I feel like I got a lot accomplished over this past weekend with the project, so I figured I'd update ya.
I bought us matching gloves and crowns, which we can customize for each person.
The crowns are kinda tight, but I can modify them.
The gloves are nice. Reminds me of marching band.
Then I found sweet gems that we can use for fake earrings and the little gem things on the dresses and crowns. I also got white foam to make the petal part of daisy's flower design. Peach just needs round gems.

Ohhh, sparkly.
Then, store after store, I could find no yellow dresses. It was like WTF?
I scurried on over to joann fabrics to figure out how difficult it would be to make the dress from scratch. I decided... Fuck That. I'll just go back to the monroeville mall and buy that over-priced dress I saw that probably won't even fit me.
So I pulled michael from his homework (which he'll probably not finish in time now, lol) and went to the Monroeville Mall. Where I tried on the dress and it fit. (yay!) .....Sadly, however, I progressed up the cash register to pay the 50 dollars for my dress, when, SURPRISE! The dress was only 9 dollars! That's right, I got my perfect dress for 82 percent off. And I have no idea why, lol. Obviously the nintendo gods are looking out for me.

So, today, I decided to start making the daisy gem things for the costume. Here they are:
And here they are on my dress:

Nice huh? And now I'm taking a break. I still need puffy sleeves and shoes, but things are looking good now. =] Are you coming home this weekend? Would you like to go to a haunted house or phantom fright nights or something on saturday? (I work Friday)
And here's a cool picture of daisy and peach I found online. (I actually found a lot of very gross pictures of daisy and peach, which I'm going to have to push out of my head, lol).
