Hey everyone!
I am back at Casa Madsen and so happy to be back with my little family! The show was INCREDIBLE! I hope you have loved watching the video of the booth! I am busy unpacking, doing laundry, answering emails and so on....but I wanted to share some more photos of some of the projects.
I have to start with the star of the show....
Isn't this peacock breathtaking? It was for sure everyone's favorite part of the booth. I have never heard so many amazing comments over a paper craft!
Remember, you can click on these photos for a larger view.
How cool is this under the sea creation? Have you ever seen anything like it?
Hello Nemo :)
The awesome sea turtle was made out of paper mache and then embellished with beads. Wow.
I look at these projects and am just amazed at the talent of our employees!
These cranes are super cute too. I wonder how many little beads are on one bird?!
This birdcage was incredible as well!
The white flower on the photo on the right was created with melted plastic spoons! We will for sure be doing a tutorial on that.
The base of this arrangement was made from journals from our stationary line. The orchids and dragonflies were incredible coming out of the top on twigs.
This was the back wall of our booth which has our conference rooms. It is a total tropical paradise!
Including our own beaded waterfall! Every tropical garden needs one right?
I hope you enjoy a closer look at these projects. We will for sure be doing LOTS of tutorials from the trees and projects and will share templates and instructions here on the blog. Let me know in the comment section what you would love to see tutorials for first!
Have a wonderful day! I will be back tomorrow with the Top 10 of the January Stack-a-holic Template Challenge! We have some amazing entries!

ReplyDeleteI would love to know how to make the peacock! The colors are gorgeous and the details are so realistic. I'd like to know how to make the melted plastic spoon flower also.
ReplyDeleteJust a quick question: What does DCWV do with the displays after CHA? I can totally see the peacock in a museum display or at the zoo!
The clown fish looks doable for me! You could make all kinds of colored fish!
ReplyDeleteWow. Those are amazing. How many months in advance do you all start making these? And how many people work on them? They did an excellent job.
ReplyDeleteStill blown away the more I look at these amazing projects. I would love to know how the peacock was made along with some of the flowers in the birdcages...simply gorgeous!!! (would love to have that birdcage too..FAB) Thanks for sharing the backside of your booth...it was nice to get an all around view of your award winning display : )

ReplyDeleteI have hundreds of plastic spoons. I have no idea why or where they came from. Bring on the tutorials.
ReplyDeleteNemo and the turtle are just adorable :)
And I thought the dresses from last year were hard to beat! Absolutely breathtaking!
ReplyDeleteThe things that you guys do with paper is AMAZING! The peacock is fabulous. I have seen it mentioned in several places talking about their experiences at CHA so I think s/he is famous already :) The fish are cute too - it's all good really. Please show the how-to on the peacock or the beaded waterfall first!

That peacock is so cool! I want to see a tutorial on making those feathers. I have a couple of peacock themed custom My Little Ponies that I've made that I eventually want to scrapbook. A background made of those feathers would rock.

ReplyDeleteHi Erin, DCWV's booth was gorgeous! I loved all of it from top to bottom and was in complete aww! I felt like I was wtching "The Pasadena Rose Paread" LOL! I love the Pea Cock especially and the beads were such a great touch! Happy to hear we have a lot to look forward too and I'm anxious to see February's stack challenge. Thx!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to make that melted spoons flower......and some of those small pieces; but not anything with a thousand or so beads. :)
ReplyDeleteThe whole display is really tip top.
The Peacock is bee-utiful. Like the sea creatures. These have the flair & beauty of what goes into making the Rose Bowl Floats.
