Christmas Ornament headpiece & body: In this production, during the Ornament Ballet we meet a Christmas tree ornament. I created the headpiece out of 1/4" L200 foam. Silver lame' fabric was glued to the foam, then all the pieces were sewn together. The finished headpiece velcroed to a white lycra hood worn by the actor.
For the body we paper-mached strips of muslin over a yoga ball, then covered that with a layer of Wonderflex thermoplastic. I created shoulder straps out of lycra-covered 2" elastic that were riveted onto the body. The top and bottom openings were bound with strips of 1/8" L200 foam. Final paint treatments created the finished look.
