So I just got back from Jo-Ann to get the last few pieces (hopefully) for completing my lolita accessories.
I had trouble finding lace at first. I thought it would be with the fabrics, but the only lace I found in the fabrics section was special order bridal lace. It turns out that the regular lace is kept in spools in the area where ribbons and whatnot are, go figure.
When I went to the cutting desk the employee there was talking to a lady, and the employee suddenly turned to me and was like "what color is an octopus???" I WAS REALLY CONFUSED LOL and I think it showed, but I answered, and she apologized for the sudden bizarre question. Apparently the lady she was talking to wanted to make an octopus plush for her son so she was trying to find the appropriate color fabric. She went back and got something along the lines I told her, but it was too blue, so I went back with her and helped her find a good one.
I got some very pretty lace that I'm excited to use
