What type of props/costumes are you looking for? If 28" includes the legs, children's clothing sized 4 - 6x would do the trick for clothes. Props depends on what you need.

Depending on what you are looking for for props,you can find a grand assortment on most any puppet site. Just type into your search engine and/or look around your house, at yard sales and almost everywhere. I'm getting to the point that everything I see looks like eather puppets or props to me anymore. Thinking maybe I am ready for therapy Walmart makes me feel like I'm in a puppet festival.

I wish Walmart wasn't such an evil, faceless corporate monster. They really are a puppet builder's heaven!

Incidently, welcome to MC Puppet Builder! Have you been reading the board for a long time? Where are you from? What kind of puppet work do you do?

 

[Show and Tell]

Thanks for the welcome. Actually as a guest I have been reading the boards for a while now. Most of my work has been unseen. I'm really just a novice compared to you. Recently I have taken a great interest in developing my talents as an artist and puppetry is the best place for me. I love the challenge of a new design. My puppets have been OWS and some adapted OWS designs. I'd love to get a job with that company. I'm taking the vast amounts of priceless information in this forum to try to transform these low quality puppet designs into something worth seeing. Wish me luck. Thanks for asking Buck.
