Continued From C-1 Hartman continues tradition “We had areas as big as 12 foot by 10 foot down to 2 feet by 6 feet,” Hartman said. “That made it fun and challenging because the spaces dictated what country went in which window.” Hartman used the bigger spaces for the ones that were more mechanical. This year, there were more mechanical displays than in the past. “That’s cool, because each time I do this, I try to add more movement,” she said. One window proved to be quite the puzzle. “This was the France window that has the Eiffel Tower that measures 4 feet tall,” Hartman said. “It’s build out of metal that I welded together and I wanted to make it shimmer like the real Eiffel Tower, so I used copper-wire lights.” Every time Hartman plugged a strand in, it would fry out. “Each time that happened, I thought it was a defective [strand],” she said. “So, I would plug another one in and that one would also short circuit.” After two weeks of trial and error, Hartman realized the lights fizzed out because the copper wiring touched the metal Eiffel Tower frame. “I finally found a different way to make it shimmer,” she said with a sigh. The overall ideas of the window exhibits is to show Maurice gather items from all of the countries so he can decorate the Grand America Christmas tree. “With the all unrest in our world, this is such a unifying theme to help people remember we all share this world we live in,” Hartman said. “Even though the windows are animated and lighthearted, the theme is unifying.” Hartman is thankful the Grand America has asked her to do the windows. “I have a team of five people who help me each year and we feel so lucky the Grand asked us to do this because they could have asked anyone,” she said.
