PARTY SUPPLIES & COSTUMES

Much more fashion-forward than those helmets, these NASA caps are the ones astronauts wear for the annual softball game against the cosmonauts, or to walk their dogs on the space station. In black, it's made of 100% brushed cotton twill, low-profile and adjustable. The front panel is reinforced with buckram to give it structure. The familiar NASA “worm” logo is stitched in white on the front. Classic.

Or faux chemistry, and more fun, anyway. These (6) 4-3/4” tall all-purpose plastic test tubes in a 9” long rack are made to hold whatever you can fit into them to help you remember, or forget, high school chem lab. Each holds approx 1.5 oz of liquid (perfect for chemistry major graduation parties), but like your teachers used to say, don’t limit yourself. Get creative with your party decor and use ’em to hold floral arrays for graduating botany majors. In assorted colors that don’t appear in real labs, which also makes them perfect for holding glitter, sand and other crafty supplies in your hobby room.

Need, want, whatever. We think you'll certainly want one of these art-glass necklaces. On 22" chains, 18" of which are strung with random-shaped polished stones. Pendants themselves are 1-1/2" dia x approx 3/16" thick art glass discs with assorted designs inside. In assorted colors, and we haven't seen any ugly ones, so we'll just pick (1) that's sure to match something in your closet and send it to you. It’ll give you something to look forward to.

Hey, steampunk! We got your bag-o-gears right here, mostly the sort of thing that went into clocks and watches before quartz crystals and cell phones, when stuff was much cooler. But wait. Don't plan on building an actual machine with these gears--they're strictly decorative. No one will know that, though, when these industrial beauties are hanging from a chain around your neck. You get about (20) gears and flywheels in sizes ranging from 1/4" to maybe 1-1/4" in brass, bronze and gold tones.

Those long nights trudging from tiki bar to tiki bar are over. You can now decorate your fro-frou drinks in the comfort of your own basement rec room with this package of (50) 4” long toothpick umbrellas. In dark blue and discretely branded with a vodka logo, you’ll find they’re a nice complement to the neon red of old-fashioned maraschino cherries. Plus it’ll never rain in your drink.

We don’t know who invented this hat, but we're sure whoever did would want you to wear it with attitude. In black or brown polyester faux-felt, it’s a tall top hat adorned with decoratives gears. Measures 5” tall and fits a wooden mannequin head perfectly.

If you love the electric and primary-colored hair you’ve been seeing lately but don’t want your kids to go all-in with dye jobs of their own, we’ve got them covered. At least, we’ve got their heads covered. Let them be edgy only when they want to with our wacky 11” nylon mohawk wigs, each connected to an elastic skullcap with (6) white LEDs that strobe, flash or pulse, powered by (3) included AG-13 batteries. You pick: the blue, yellow, green and aqua one; the other one in green, aqua, magenta and purple; or the black, green and orange one. In kid sizes, but feel free to get one for yourself if you think you can squeeze into it. Ages 3+.

Essential if your peacock is molting, but made to be fashion statements like hair extensions, except made from a genuine 4” long peacock feather, augmented by a dyed mystery feather or two, all attached to a 1” hair-clip on a 4” string. The package assures us these are “Meticulously Hand-Crafted by Trained Artisans.”

We love these for small gifts, party favors, or place cards with a surprise inside. Like very small Chinese takeout food boxes with wire handles, but in black chalkboard cardboard, ready to write on with standard chalk. Measure just 2-1/2" x 2-3/8" x 1-3/4". Our each is a 5-pack.

Small, but cute and handy, especially for school settings, these 6-1/4” x 4-1/2” folding black cardboard chalkboard easels make perfect, and reusable, name cards for meetings, table numbers, whatever. Write on them with standard chalk, or use white marker to make it permanent.

These waxed cardboard Catwoman™ ice-cream cups from Unique Ind, Inc. are from 1992, but they come in their original plastic bag of (8), and are as well-preserved as Catwoman is today. They measure 3-3/4" dia x 2-1/2" deep and hold about 7 oz, but we know you're not going to defile these valuable collectibles with scoops of raspberry ripple.

That’s why they call it the Mad Dana Bandana, and it can be worn a bunch of different ways. A couple of the ways are a silly, we admit (it's a wrist-bandana!), but most are ultra-snazzy, especially the face mask style—because you shouldn't have to look frumpy to be safe. This one is sans fleece and is a lighter, silky material. In assorted colors.
