From the project description:
We built the Stanchions over the course of 3 days - they are powered by the cheapest RC cars you can get on Amazon and are fitted with PVC pipes and 2.5lb weights epoxied on top for stability. The "metal" poles themselves are made from pool noodles and shiny gold paper attached with spray adhesive, and are topped off with decorative ceramic orbs we spray painted gold. The velvet rope was created from red velour and poly-fil, topped off with 5hr Energy bottles and hooks from our local hardware store.
