installation time |
after receiving the images from salvation army and Laura's planned design, i decided that my original plan just didn't work any longer.   so, here is my re-design plan. red boards of different widths will cross and overlap to represent the ribbons on a gift. the images received from the marketing department will be able to be viewed from the outside and inside of the store by printing the images on mylar and protecting them with plexi-glass on each side. silver binder clips will secure the images within the plexi-glass, and will provide a method for hanging.


i visited with Ron, manager of the High Point store to discuss the window display installation and timeframe. the installation is scheduled for 12/14-16, monday thru wednesday of the next week. i asked him to send any images or information about salvation army that sent messages about salvation army or told the salvation army 'story'. i received 10 fabulous images from the salvation army marketing department.

initial plan | instead of the mannequins + shields, i plan to use red "santa sacks" in the shape of the iconic salvation army shields with the letters G-I-V-E in white on each sack. i plan to include gift-wrapped boxes that include written messages and/or images about salvation army.


initial idea | for the high point store, i plan to use a variation of my idea for the SELECT store display window.
