Quick Tip: Halloween Hurricanes

March 29, 2011 By Michael Russo | Leave a Comment

I am a firm believer in the idea that the slightest tweaks and touches can often make a substantial difference. Take, for instance, these three tall glass display hurricanes:

To add some flair during the Halloween season, I placed candles in each of the hurricanes and overlaid them with different novelty fishnet stockings. (Yes, even the one in the center is a type of stocking!)

To hold the stockings in place, I secured the top of each hurricane with double-sided tape. Then, as a finishing touch, I tied ribbons around the hurricanes, making sure to also apply ribbon around the rims (to obscure the double-sided tape). I chose to tie the ribbons in a different manner on the left and right hurricanes, to keep things visually interesting. Et voilà — this little design trick is quite a Halloween treat!

Welcome!

Thank you for visiting my blog! I’m so excited to share my work, my inspiration and my experiences with you. First and foremost, this blog will be a journal of the things that move and influence me as I continue to create magical events. It will also serve as a sort of digital travelogue; I am incredibly lucky to say that my line of work has taken me to beautiful, breathtaking and remarkable locales that I simply cannot keep to myself! Additionally, it will be a source where you can catch up on all of my projects, press and appearances (past, present and future)…so, that means you’ll be first to know what I’m up to! Lastly — and quite possibly most importantly — it will be a forum for me to communicate with my readers, to create a dialogue where we discuss trends and newsworthy topics, among many other things. However, I cannot do this without you, so your thoughts, questions and feedback are always welcome. I invite you to take a look at life through my lens!
