Title: Monterey Company Scarborough Faire Cast Badges?
Post by: Cobaltblu on May 11, 2009, 03:14:03 PM
Hello,

I am working with Monterey Company to make some 3-D faire favors and I saw on their blog that they made the 2009 cast participant badges which have a dragon and a castle on them.

Has anyone seen these in real life or have photos of them?  How did they turn out?

I made favors last year with Monterey.

Regards,

CB

The participant badges from this season are really pretty. I'll have to get a shot of someones next weekend or maybe I have one tucked away in my faire folder somewhere...

I think Monterey has been making the badges for the past 5 years. This years are impressive, though.

Meg, just stop me on the way in on Sat, and you're free to take a close up pic of mine.  They are very nice this year.

That photo of the badges rocks.

How large/thick are they?

I am having them make this for me in the same kind of 3-D:

I found that online somehow about a month and a half ago. I sent them a comment to fix their blog where they say Scarby is in North Carolina and is in fact in Texas. Looks like they never fixed it. *Shrug*
