Although this event was totally out of the way, we were far too curious to miss it. A Jell-O Mold Design Competition? So many questions. Would it be awesome or terrible? Would it be tacky or amazing? And as we got closer to the event location (see below), we started asking questions like, "Are we lost?"
Thankfully, we were not lost. It just happened to be in a very warehouse-like part of Brooklyn in a very warehouse-like building. As for the answers to our other questions: awesome and amazing. The Jell-O designs were so creative and so well-executed that we often had to get close to the subject to confirm that it was, in fact, made of Jell-O. Here's a sampling:
A very squishy dress.
From what we could tell, this chandelier was made with a clear Jell-O filled with corn. Sounds gross, but looked kind of cool!
Put in a quarter. Be surprised with Jell-O.
This takes the idea of Jell-O desserts to a whole new level.
Oysters!
Inventive spin on medicine.
This one was my favorite. It was so intricate! To think that all of the sushi pieces were made of different molds and colors of Jell-O - definitely something I would NOT have patience for! We speculated that the soy sauce was actually chocolate Jell-O pudding. Do you see what I mean? So creative!
We were really happy we made it out to this fun event (and even happier we didn't have to make any of it ourselves). Go Jell-O!
