We've been practicing as much as possible and it's sounding pretty good. All is almost ready for our dress and tech rehearsal on Friday evening, and then Saturday is the show!
It's hard to believe we made this out of nothing. I love how when a bunch of creative people get together it just gets funny and wild and sweet in the room. I hope people don't get too tired from the march and can make it to see us.
More props. For some reason I just did not want to buy a cheap nylon flag from the internet so I made one from paper and posterboard. It was fun. I have this three-sided ruler that has six different measurements on it, like the real inches, then scales of 2X, 3X, 4x, 5X and 6X. So it is easy to measure the little nylon flag I do have, and quickly convert it to the size of the posterboard. And then all of the components are practically exact. With a few adjustments. Anyway, it looks great!
We're using a lot of big Amazon boxes for set pieces this year, in an ironic way of course, (it's Jamazon) and today on the way home from the store I walked by a really big one all broken down. I know it was maybe someone's potential bed out there, but I can put it back out when we're finished with it I suppose. I thought I shouldn't pass up another serendipitous gift from the universe.
Here's the banner:
I still have one big project that seems hard so I've been putting it off, but tomorrow is going to have to be the day to get it done. It's likely to take more than one day. Almost all of the small projects are finished and if I get everything ready, I might make some plants and maybe lanterns, not sure. Probably just wishful thinking. I also have to dust off the pieces I will be taking from the past, and figure out how to fit it all in my car.
Hope it's a good week for all of you making Jell-O. You can do it! There is no bad Jell-O Art, just challenges and the overcoming of them.
See ya!
