It's Summer - keep your cool! Window

Photobucket
Sketched design for window.

Free reign was given to come up with any theme and product for the window. Summer, the weather, keeping your cool, keeping busy indoors, enjoying the outdoors all appeared pertinent to customer needs and the stock range available in sufficiency. The colour palette chosen is fresh, crisp, clean and very Summery.

The theme was created entirely in paper; the sun, decorated box risers, water waves, blue crepe streamers, the floor in blue crepe. It cost less than $12 in materials. The white printers' paper background from the previous window was left in place, saving time and money.

Love Mind Games? Valentine's Day Window

Photobucket

The brief for this window required nothing other than the poster to be adhered to the windows. The original sketch, did have the paper hearts decorating the glass. Other than that and the inclusion of 4 instead of just 2 posters - since 4 were delivered instead of just two - this final display is true to the design sketch.
