"Who" Dining Utensils!

To stay true to the illustrations of Dr. Seuss, our eating utensils were anything but traditional.

No forks, knives or spoons, instead we compiled everything from tools in a tool box to odd's and end's in our kitchen cabinets.




In the first picture, Patti is prepared to eat with two small gardening shovels and Craig has large serving spoons.








Stephanie is prepared to feast on her roast beast with a mini saw.























Paul and Damon sit down to feast with a drill and large serving spoons!!!

"Who" Hair Accessories!

Now once you have the "Who" hair, it is all about the accessories.


Jaclyn is wearing a headband with a leaf arrangement glued to it and her hair braided. The braid is being shaped with a coat hanger so it flips up and off to the side.

Brad has on a whimsical tall hat!














Here you see Damon festive with reindeer antlers, and Paul wearing an entire string of Christmas rope lights as a hat!


















Ashley added a gigantic bow to the top of her head, while Jane put on a headband with a teapot glued to it. If you look close you will see Ashley pouring a hot pot of coffee into the teacup atop Jane' head!

Headbands with teacups and leaves, ribbons, packages, boxes and flair!!

Anything went when it came to creating whimsical
"Who" hair!!

How to create "Who" hair & a "Who" smile!

Eclipse Studios, Solar Imaging and PageOne Productions celebrated the holidays this year by transforming themselves into "Who's". Inspired by Dr. Seuss's, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, we transformed a corporate office into a children's story book. Everything from the curvy table, which we built, to the eating utensils, anything but the traditional spoon, knife and fork, mimicked the whimsical story of the "Who's".

It was important to not only act the part but to look the part as well. So how does one transform themselves into a "Who", lets start with the HAIR!

Aside from placing things on, in and around our hair, some of us twisted and braided our own hair to create the fabulous "Who" hair. For my hair I stacked two small plastic cups on my head then gathered the hair up and around the cups. Tied it off with a pony tail holder at the top. You will also notice it accented with little packages, but we will get to the fun accessories later!



For this image, Jane is wearing a curly brown wig set into two braids tied off with red ribbons.

Ashley braided her hair around a coat hanger which she bent to comfortably fit the shape of her head. This allowed her ends to stand out straight!

Sandra, in the last picture, is wearing a traditional Cindy Lou Who wig.


The bigger and sillier the hair was the better!






It was also important to capture that famous "Who" smile. For this, some of us placed marshmallows under our top lip to push it out giving a more exaggerated smile. Joel, in the first picture, has a great "Who" smile as well as John in the last picture. Others resorted to cotton balls, as the marshmallows did melt rather quickly!
