White Room
The "White Room”: Attendee's got to see what would happen when you start with a completely white room and give children and adults thousands of colorful stickers. Each participant was given a sheet of stickers with one instruction: you were allowed to stick them ANYWHERE you wanted in the room. At the beginning, the entire room and all of its furniture was all white. But slowly over the course of three days, the room transformed into a colorful, festive, overwhelming-to-the-senses… work of art! People enjoyed the fun… and took part in the Washington Home & Garden Show’s first ever… White Room!
