The Google Nexus One




Well, here we all are, January 5th 2010.  As the world eagerly awaits the news that Google will release something big, HUGE, in fact, we all wonder if the rumors are true.  Will it be the Nexus One that the internet world is buzzed about?  There were secret photos and youtube videos and they were quickly removed off the face of youtube and then there were and are videos and photos that seem to be there to stay.  There are articles and more articles.  Rumors and rumors.  Is it happening yes or no?




One of the things we do here at the Custom Creations theming shop, is build oversized props.
Last year Google Corp. had contacted us and asked us to build an oversized Android robot for the launch of Android.  we jumped to the occasion and finished that bad boy in 4 days!  Then came Cupcake at 8' tall, then came Donut at 8' diameter and then Eclair at 10' long.  Google has been good to us.
Why?  Well, to toot our own horn, we do excell at what we do small or large, we get the job done.  Of course being the self proclaimed "king of HUGE" doesn't hurt.

So where am I going with this?  Obviously I am not a writer.  Well, January 5th 2010 may well go down on the record books as a momentous occasion.  Not just because of Googles announcement (whatever that may be ;P) but because Custom Creations will have had somewhat of a hand in it.  (the day of course)  How?  Well, I am sure that at the press release, reporters will be viewing our handywork and taking pictures of not only what we built in the past, but what we have built for January 5th.

YESSSSSS.  We have been keeping our mouths shut about what we know.  While the internet world scratched their heads, We here at Custom Creations knew all along and have been busting at the seams with the inside information for the past month!  Of course with this project, there was a really special perk and that was...... a special "gift" of a sort.   A sweet gift at that.  At this point, do I really need to say it?

Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2011 PREVIEW

One of our latest projects: Our Victoria's Secret PINK dog mirror balls make their appearance in this youtube video at 4:19 in. We made a total of 8 dogs at 3ft long each. We then scored the internet for pink glass tile suppliers and cleaned up everything out there. Yes folks, there are NO MORE pink glass tiles available. This was a great and challenging project to say the least, as there were the usual delays that happen when you take on not only a custom project, but a prestigious one as well. Everything had to be spot on to Victoria's Secret Pink Brand. The usual multitude of emails, texts and conference calls between our shop, the local production studio and the VS France office took place. Once we were off and running with our sculptures, we needed to find the pink glass mirror tiles and as mentioned above, there were not many out there and all needed to be special ordered and cut to our specifications. Those tiles then needed to be overnighted, or we would not b...

Beard styles to chose from

So this is where you guys get to have some fun. Remember, the style with the most votes wins and I will hold on to that style for at least 1 month (maybe more, if I like it). But remember the rule is that you have to donate directly to Give Kids the World . They have a several easy ways for you to do so. One last thing... I am a publicly seen person in several places. I am also a member of my town's school board of education so, I WILL have to "sport" the look that gets the highest vote. To register your vote, simply make a comment on this post and the tally will be there for all to see. Now go. Go and donate whatever you can. As little or as much and don't forget to spread the word to all your social network friends! Thanks. Giovanni Calabrese This is what I used to look like before the beard! Man, I need a shave!

Top Secret Project - Episode 2

If you were to Google "Custom Creations", you would find that we excel in oversized props, 3D styrofoam sculpture and black light miniature golf to name but a few of our abilities. (BTW, we also have the ability to walk through walls and doors...shhhhhhh!) Anyway, when this TOP SECRET internationally known company Googled us, they knew they were knocking on the right doors (it was almost as if they knew we were about to walk through them. Hmmmmmmm) Day 2: We ran a hard day and made some serious progress with this and other projects going on at the same time! Maritza is tied up in the office (she was a bad girl) and I took over the camera...
