 Just want to share a bit of background...

I acquired the mannequins in March 2008 while directing our high school play "Steel Magnolias." They were used as props on the set - a beauty shop scene. They have been in my classroom ever since the show ended and have become a wonderful addition to my wonderfully eclectic mess.

This was our cast picture taken before the final show on March 27, 2008.


Now...time to get creative with them!!!
