Props and other misc info:

*Chairs: We'll need to bring our own chairs! Please find a super cool chair, and cover it with a lovely fabric and a tie to keep it in place. <3

*Props for Court: If anyone has fun props, let me know! We'll need to decorate the Royal Court area ourselves. I'll be bringing tons of saris, so if anyone has ideas of things they can bring, including nice rugs, pillows, sculptures, etc that fit into the period style, let me know!

*BRING A BASKET! Put your phone, water, snacks, sunblock etc in it. Anything that's not period correct needs to be hidden from ALL patrons! It can be a nice little basket from the thrift store with a cloth thrown over it, or you can go wild and decorate it as you wish! BE SURE TO BRING SNACKS, WATER, A TINY SEWING KIT, FACE WIPES FOR WASHING, CASH FOR FOOD, ETC.- whatever you need! And a period correct drinking mug. If you can't find one in time please let me know, I have 2 that I can borrow to you if you promise to be careful with them.
