We were again summoned to build the King and Queen float this year, the theme being "Gnomes, Toads and White Rabbit Tea Parties" Dan chose to do a Fairy theme.
We also spent more time than usual on the Friday night "promenade", being held the night before the parade, which is basically one huge costume party on Duval street.
This year we did "The Branding of America".
Brands included the Land-O-Lakes Girl, Marlboro Man, Bob's Big Boy (awesome job btw), Chef Boy-R-Dee, Little Debbie, Dutch Boy Paint & Morton Salt girl, and a host of other house hold brands.
Branding of America props,
printed and spray glued onto oversized containers.
The book from "Fractured Fairy Tales".
(complete with dangling-smashable fairy).
Happy Fantasy Fest 2007.
