He asked me to do this Wednesday morning, for a Friday execution. Needless to say I was very distracted all day on Thursday (sorry to my professors who may be reading this!) planning and measuring and figuring it all out. BUT. I did. It's up.
Many, many, MANY thanks to those who helped make it possible - my amazing BF Nick, who stayed up late and helped me construct frame work; Christian Davies at FRCH who helped me brainstorm signage ideas, emersionDESIGN (esp. Nikki Marksberry!) for support and plastic bags, and the nice guy who helped me put stuff together for a minute on Friday morning.
But enough with the talk. I know you want to see the final product!!

So if you have always wanted to come down to Park+Vine but never had a reason... now you have one! Come and bring me your bags!
Posts to come: Pecha Kucha night, the construction process
Jenny the pics are awesome! So excited for you!
ReplyDeleteI dropped some bags off early Saturday, looked around didn't see Dan so I left them by the display. Almost home I thought, man I just walked into a store and left a suspicious package!
ReplyDeleteOr that's what I imagined the people in Park+Vine thinking.
Hope the bomb squad didn't show up!
This is very cool; congratulations!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! 5chw4r7z, I went into PV on Saturday morning with a stabilizer for the horizontal sign (since it was imploding on itself). Anyway, I just walked in, hopped up on the window ledge, did my thing and walked out. Nobody blinked an eye (or noticed; it was pretty busy). Dan was so awesome about letting me do my thing - he let me move other displays around, and didn't get (visibly) annoyed about me accidentally blowing a fuse three times on Friday.
ReplyDeleteSo I may be missing something, but what are you going to do with the bags? And, can I leave drycleaning bags too?
