On the Move, again

Yup poppies are on the move again.

After their lovely appearance at the Drum Theatre in Dandenong we will be bumping out on Tuesday and will reappear as a ONE DAY ONLY exciting installation elsewhere this Sunday,

                                                                                        more on that later...........

The Poppies for Peace community project in Dandenong was designed to be versatile, each installation adapted to each location so the community who helped create them can continue to enjoy them.

The Drum Theatre in Dandenong is a fantastic location - lends itself to all sorts of ideas.  In fact our imagination has run riot with future possibilites, BUT for now its poppies.

First of all a trip from Dandenong back to base for some floral arranging........

The squishing into the car for the journey back to Dandenong.......

The exploding out on arrival

We've always wanted bigger and better 3d opportunities,  several hours later and this chandelier just about satisfied our joint megalomania........for now

Now I'm terrified of heights so once again I was delighted to hide behind the camera whilst  Margaret braved the lift and made a few adjustments  

Stewart from the Drum was inspired and found some lovely red led lighting........ 

Now for the walls.......

by day......

By night......

From below...

So our megalomania was encouraged.......... and it was so very, very much fun!!!!!!

And next, well here's a little photo of a test to see how to attach a couple of  poppies to a well known balustrade........before we install FORTY!
