Frankston Christmas
In June 2015 I was approached by Frankston City Council to create some festive decorations for the central area of the city.Working with the council I developed the designs and we went from there.
Construction began in late September, fitting it in around other projects before it took over my whole life. In total there are 5 large Christmas tree structures and 6 Reindeer which are placed in Young & Wells streets in
Frankston.
The tree structures are a solid steel structure with solar lighting systems for illumination at night (I learnt a few things about solar systems along the way).
The reindeer are made from perforated mesh panels all cut and bent to shape and welded together. I have no idea how many pieces are in each one, maybe someone can count them for me and let me know. The sleigh was provided by guys at the local Men's Shed.
