Sweet Smell Of Success For Grand Final Footy Teams
The demonstration of the ancient techniques of glass blowing at the Kirra
Galleries Fed Square Tomorrow to launch a new contemporary glass exhibition
will take on a Grand Final flavour with footy fans being able to experience the
sweet smell of success.
Melbourne glass artist Chris Arnold who will join a
number of Australia’s
contemporary glass artists, specialising in lampworking, demonstrating their
skills at the Flame on Glass 2009 exhibition
has designed and is creating two
special perfume bottles.
Mr Arnold said whilst supporter wear jumpers, scarves and beanies and wave
streamers the hand crafted perfume bottles were a personal way of celebrating the
teams achievements every day.
One perfume bottle sporting the blue and white colours of Geelong the other
displaying the red black and white of the Saints.
The Geelong perfume bottle features a blue and white orchid and the St Kilda bottle
features a six petal flower with three black leaves and three white leaves and a red
centre.
Mr. Arnold said his family had followed the Saints for decades.
The demonstrations of hot glass blowing co-incide with Grand Final Celebrations in
the Fed Square Tomorrow .
