Five Star Gift Ideas

What a unique and awesome interest your grandson has! It's always great to support and encourage the passions of our loved ones. Here are a few gift ideas that might be perfect for your grandson:

1. Drag Show Tickets: Nothing can beat the experience of attending a real drag show. Purchase tickets for a local drag performance or a well-known drag queen's show. This will not only be an entertaining experience for your grandson but also give him the opportunity to learn from professional performers.

2. Makeup and Cosmetics: Since your grandson enjoys performing in drag shows, investing in high-quality makeup and cosmetics can be a great gift idea. Look for products that are specifically designed for theatrical or drag makeup, such as vibrant eyeshadow palettes, false eyelashes, bold lipsticks, and glitter. Consider including makeup brushes and other tools that can help him achieve stunning looks.

3. Drag Queen Masterclass: Organize a private lesson or a group workshop with a local drag queen or a professional makeup artist specializing in drag makeup. This hands-on session will provide your grandson with valuable tips and techniques to enhance his lip-syncing and performing skills. Moreover, it can be an opportunity for him to network with experienced performers in the drag community.

4. Costume and Wardrobe: Help your grandson create stunning looks for his performances by gifting him some fabulous costumes and outfits. Look for pieces that reflect his unique style and personality. Consider bold and flamboyant items like feather boas, sequined dresses, wigs, and accessorize with sparkling jewelry. If you're not sure about his size or preferences, you can always opt for a gift card to a costume shop or an online drag store.

5. Lip-syncing Equipment: To enhance his performances, you can surprise your grandson with lip-syncing equipment like a high-quality microphone, speakers, or a karaoke machine. These tools will enable him to practice and fine-tune his skills at home, boosting his confidence and stage presence.

6. Drag Queen Memoirs and Films: Expand his knowledge and inspire his creativity by introducing him to the history and stories of drag queens. Books like "Drag: Combing Through the Big Wigs of Show Business" by Frank DeCaro or "Letting It All Hang Out: An Autobiography" by RuPaul can be captivating reads. Additionally, films and documentaries like "Paris is Burning," "Kinky Boots," or "To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar" can provide insight and inspiration.

Remember, the heart of any gift is the thought and support behind it. Be sure to show your love and encouragement for your grandson's passion, as this can be the most meaningful gift of all.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.
