I tri-folded a half sheet of 12" x 12" cardstock to make a stand-up display of some cross stitch photos from my Mexican Costumes series. Jan. 2014.
It's hard to tell from this picture but the flowers are empty water bottles that were cut open and spray painted...very unique.

FURISODE THROUGH THE AGES
KIMONO
Translated literally from Japanese, kimono means "thing to wear." Historically, in Japan it was a term used to refer to any type of clothing. Now, it has come to refer to a very specific group of traditional Japanese garments. Here, you will see some examples of kimono. More specifically furisode in this case. Please enjoy the exhibit.
The kimono and accessories displayed here are taken from the personal collections of Christina Stoppa, Justine Sobocan and Sarah Platter.
FURISODE
Literally translated as "swinging sleeves" furisode are probably the most well known and iconic type of kimono. Characterized by their long, dangling sleeves, bright, beautiful colours and artfully arranged patterns, they are striking examples of traditional Japanese clothing. Furisode are only worn by young, unmarried women. In Japanese culture, the younger a person is, the more flambouyantly they should dress. This means longer sleeves, brighter colours and bolder patterns; in other words, furisode! Though their origins go back much further, this display will allow you to see the evolution of furisode over the last 150 years.

Here's a good view of the cute little wooden ladder I used to do my towels. Quite a steal for only $5 I think!
Just a quick shot of some of my sidetable options.
Recently I found thouse mini plant stands (the black and golden one) and thought it might be nice to show how I like to combine these things for instant side tables. All pieces were bought from stores, nothing is glued so it can be easily mixed and matched anew every time ; ).
The wooden square is from IKEA and the small golden plate is plastic and was the plate for a dessert if I remember correctly.
The golden and black plant stands are a product of Mica Decorations.
The black candle holder, as well as the soft pink/golden saucer, the tiny golden one, the mirror saucer and the golden candle holder are all from "Depot".

The window displays on the 58th street side of the store all related to various aspects of the senses - sights, sounds, etc. This was part of the sound window and represents (for the youngsters) a stylised version of an old fashioned telephone exchange.
