MelRae loves old hymns - the message, the encouragement, the tradition. So we created canvas wall art with some of her favorite phrases from the hymns. We often find these truths coming to mind as we walk through joys and trials. What a joy to realize Hebrews 13:8 fully, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever."

Queen Aggravain is bold, powerful, and obsessed with ruling the kingdom. This dramatic red and metallic gold brocade dress tells her story before she speaks a word. Inspired by images we discovered on our internet and Pinterest search, we replicated this gown for Coll Street Players' production of Once Upon a Mattress.

In Once Upon a Mattress, Queen Aggravain is a vain, aggravating, self-absorbed character. To reflect these character qualities, we created The Peacock Gown. Collaborating with Costume Lead Beth Murphy, Director Devon Zukowski and performer Naomi Tulp, we embued this gown with historical elements, texture, elegance, and ostentation.

Costume Lead Beth Murphy asked me to create the gorgeous pageantry of Queen Aggravain for Coll Street Players' production of Once Upon a Mattress. Knowing Beth's pursuit of excellence and the outrageous character of Queen Aggravain, I said yes to the dress(es). Collaborating with Beth Murphy, Director Devon Zukowski and actress Naomi Tulp, we stretched our imaginations and our skills!

Part 3 of the Nightingale build! 🪶

This time we're focusing on the subtle feather details that help bring the Nightingale of Samarkand to life in Once Upon a Mattress. Inspired by Chappell Roan's iconic jester look—designed by James Nguyen and Alexander Cole (AC Gottlieb) and built by Arel Studio NYC—we used textured ribbons in our color palette to create the illusion of feathers.

This was an intensive and rewarding project for MelRae, Chloe, and Caleb, who poured their creativity and craftsmanship into every detail while collaborating on this build for director Devon Zukowski. It's incredible how thoughtful design choices—like subtle feather-inspired textures—can completely transform a costume and bring a character to life on stage. 🪶✨

Before we could even start sewing the bodice for The Nightingale of Samarkand in Once Upon a Mattress, we had to make our own fabric.

Inspired by Chappell Roan's iconic jester look—designed by James Nguyen and Alexander Cole (AC Gottlieb) and brought to life by Arel Studio NYC—we hand-wove ribbons together to create a custom textile. Every strip was woven into place before a single bodice seam was sewn.

It was a time-intensive process, but it gave the costume the bold texture, color, and one-of-a-kind look we were after. Keep reading to see how it all comes together! 🎭✨

We've completed a LOT of LED panel installations, but this is the first time we installed a panel wall into a rotating platform! This project is 100% a collaborative effort, and it was a privilege to work with such an innovative team. Once Upon a Mattress takes place in numerous locations around a castle, and requires a towering bed with a stack of twenty mattresses. Our rotating platform hid the bed on one side, and allowed projections on the flip side.
