 Hooray for Hollywood!

Well, another Fashion Show /Fundraiser came around.  This year's theme was "Lights, Camera, Fashion!"  Hollywood, Oscars, and Film Stars were the decorative theme.  I envisioned a Forties Hollywood Art Deco theme.  The venue had art deco decor.  Once again, trying to keep the cost of centerpieces below five dollars, I used foam board and paper to create the Art Deco/Oscar themed lamp (20) and lighted Popcorn Box.  The shade is 25 separate pieces, and cut out on the Pazzles cutting machine.  I used 'toile' patterned tissue paper as the "glass."  It only took me two practice patterns, to get the final design.  The lamp base is "Oscar" in  black foam board.  I put two "floralytes" in each to give them light.  



I had lamps everywhere!  Here are some other decorations I designed:



Unfortunately, my camera had difficulty with the lighting, so here are pics I took at home:







A good time was had by one and all!  The talented "Set Crew" did a beautiful job with the Chinese Auction and Silent Auction Tables.  It was organized so beautifully and ran perfectly.   My daughter-in-law and her BFF were the Producer and Director of the event.  

I am considering putting the lamp shade and popcorn box patterns on Etsy?  What do you think?
