Hailey and Elwin Make Over the Green Room at the Henrietta Hippo Theatre

Wow! What an honor! Elwin and I have been called upon to do some designs for the Webkinz World-renowned Henrietta Hippo Theatre. The Green Room is where performers wait before their cue to go onstage. The space needs to be a calm, relaxing place where actors, singers and musicians can put the final touches on their costumes and make-up and collect themselves before a big performance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is the Green Room now. With the dark walls and white floor it’s a got a bit too much contrast for my taste. And the Blooming Couch and Charm Forest Mirror are very busy. We want performers to be able to really relax and feel at home here.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Here is Elwin’s take on the room. He’s put those Chandeliers to good use again. The light green paint gives the space a much more relaxed feel. He replaced the small mirror with a Big City Window. How chic! He paired a couple of White Silk Sofas to create a relaxing seating area and made one corner for snacks, another corner for costume storage and he even put a sewing machine in for emergency alterations. A couple of plants add some much needed life to the space. I think that you could really concentrate on your upcoming performance in a room like this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I agreed with Elwin that the room needed to calm down a bit so I chose the gentle coloring of the Green Striped Wallpaper. Like Elwin, I went with a wood flooring but I lightened mine up a little to go with the Green Leaf pieces that I used throughout the room.  In addition, I also used the White Silk Sofa and by the fridge I added an eating area with the Fresh Glass Dining Table. I put in lots of costume storage with the Pop Diva closet and added a make-up prep area in the corner.

I think that both Elwin and I have come up with options that will be more relaxing and instill confidence in performers while they wait to go on. What do you think?

    Iwould have to choose Edwin’s because its more relaxing and Hailey’s has too many items

  3. katieanddora says:

    I choose Elwin’s.

  4. MDIChickadee says:

    Wow! I think this choice is the toughest one yet, as I like both rooms. In fact, to be honest, when I saw Elwin’s, I was thinking that Hailey had done it (I seem to have been picking Hailey a lot of late.) I like the light and lightness of both rooms, I like the spaciousness of both, but, again, I think I am going to pick Hailey’s. Why? Well, I like having a sink in the room. When I did ballet a couple years ago, it seemed like having a sink in our dressing room before our recital was a good idea. I also like having a television – you can be distracted or not, depending on what you prefer (though I would have changed the room arrangement a bit so that the television did not dominate the room quite so much.) I also found the chandeliers a bit heavy, and the city window too much – I like the different pictures. The sewing area is a good idea, but overall, I like Hailey’s design. I wonder if we are going to receive an official list of which designs were preferred? All the best! MDIChickadee

  7. Ninjastar14 says:

    Hmmmm… I like both of them lol but if i had to choose probably Haileys just cuz i would feel more relaxed in it :)

  8. Murphymushu says:

    Love Elwin’s room. So elegant, but relaxing. Has everything a true star would want.

  9. ~WebkinzEmily~ says:

    You both have such great designs! I love how you think. Keep it up! ~WebkinzEmily~

  10. The 49th says:

    Actually Elwins! His has a more relaxed feel. Hailey’s has too much Green Leaf Theme. It makes it fel desert-y and not exactly relaxy. -The 49th ■■■

    • sparklegirlLT says:

      I agree. Hailey’s is nice but Elwin’s should be the winner. ~(*)sparklegirlLT(*)

      • lillyluvie says:

        Yes Elwin’s is one of the better rooms. I like it because it seems more organized. ;) ;) *Luv from LillyLuive*

      • Icewolf says:

        Hailey’s is the better of the two. I really like the calmness of the room. I think Elwin put a little to much “POP” in to the room with the closet on the side. But…that’s just my opinion. *Peace, Love and Hope, Icewolf*

        • SugarComet says:

          I actually agree, Icewolf – Hailey is the best of the two. Elwin mixed and matched themes and the end result was pretty cool- just, Hailey’s was the best. ~ SugarComet***

    • MagicRaichuThunder says:

      I would have to give my vote to Elwin this time. Hailey’s looks more like a living room, not a “Green room”. I mean I like them both, but I feel that Elwin’s looks more relaxed. I agree with The 49th and Murphymushu. But they are both very good! Byes :) •♥•MRT•♥• :mrgreen:

    • sarahandlacey says:

      Again what’s up with all the green? I’m going to give my vote to Elwin! Your friend sarahandlacey! :lol: :mrgreen: ;-) :-) :roll:

    • psalm11911 says:

      I love the green leaf room and windows make a relaxed atmosphere. Definitely Hailey’s! The wardrobe is a nice touch and the framed flower photos make lovely wall art. Love it!

      • Artistic says:

        I think Hailey’s is better because it’s more fit for a actor’s minute-before-stage needs. It has a sink for make up touches and a closet for last minute dressing fixes. Elwin’s has a fridge and a small closet, thats about it. This one was really close though. I think they’re both really good. *~Artistic~*

    • Fromtheheart16 says:

      I really like Elwins better! It looks a lot more relaxed and calming, and believe me, you need to be very relaxed and ready before you go on stage, I should know, I’ve done it dozens of times.

    • ELWINS THE WINNER OF THIS ONE IN MY BOOK says:

      THIS ONE GOES TO ELWIN….ITS FORM AND FUNCTION ARE SO MUCH BETTER THAN HAILEYS…..GOOD LUCK HAILEY YOU MIGHT GET THE NEXT ONE….

    • Nicole says:

      Elwin’s. His looks so comfy and relaxed, Hailey’s feels like forced relaxation. Hailey 5 Elwin 5 TIED!!

    • Nicole says:

      WAIT THE SCORE IS Hailey 5 Elwin 4

    • kinzklipfan says:

      I vote Elwin. I don’t actually vote Elwin, because by this time it’s not a surprise. Elwin’s, in my opinion, is the best. I don’t really like that Pop Diva Closet. I like the smaller closet with bright clothes in Elwin’s. ~:: kkf~~kinzklipfan~~ :: $

    • dawndrop16 says:

      I like Hailey’s a bit more because the dark walls give it a more relaxed feel. Also, there are more practical things in Hailey’s room, and Elwin’s room has a sewing machine and a small closet, but there are mostly drinks (as usual). They were both very good though. ;) ~Dawn~

    • Snowstar says:
