Hi. I have a few questions regarding colors for museum props or platforms
and mannequins. We will be opening an exhibit on wedding rituals this winter
and want a new look for our mannequins. I have seen various colors that they
have been painted and was wondering what those of you who use them do.
Currently, our mannequins are a not so wonderful shade of metallic bronze.
They are a distraction in the galleries. We are going to paint them but need
input. Also, what do you do for hair? Do you use wigs, paper, etc.? If you
use paper, can you provide us with a good source or type that we can use? Do
you have directions for making paper wigs? Also, what color do you paint
your exhibit furniture? Do you paint it the same color as your floor or
gallery walls? I would appreciate any and all input. Thanks.
