    Prom season is.... HERE! I remember those days when I'd be SO excited to go to Prom. Though, I'd have to find a date first and a kick-ass dress to impress everyone at Prom. Magazine upon magazine, I'd scour the pages to find something unique - something that no one else had and that would just blow them away.

I asked my co-workers and students to bring them for me. None of the materials were purchased for the project, I wanted to re-use what was otherwise destined to blow down the streets.
