A story from our float has been featured by Deseret News!

"I immediately recognized the opportunity to pray for the glitter and other supplies we needed to finish our float, but I was reluctant to pray about it. In my mind I was certain we weren’t getting the supplies. I figured we’d have to crush our dishes to make our float sparkle the way pioneer sisters did to give the early Kirtland Temple its luster."

Field Trip to Innovative Design Concepts (IDC)

On Thursday we took a field trip to the IDC warehouse and got some personal instructions in float building.

There were several floats there already under construction.

This huge dog was carved out of foam and then plastered.

They answered all our questions.

He taught us how to apply the burlap around the foundation of the float.

We also learned how to glue the screening. I was assured that this glue would NOT give me cancer :)
