Another Make Over for my Gal

My dress form is having an identity crisis!

She started off just a body without a stand so I cut an old wrought iron lamp stand to stick her on.

Then I Mod Podged sheet music all over her and painted her top black.

Decided I didn't like it as much as I thought I did so I started tearing it off....and somewhere in the middle of all of that I actually like her with bits and pieces still clinging and tattered. I took off her black top and stuck in a glass knob.

Now she is wearing the ruffled apron I made and a ruffled sash.
I think she is pretty!

    Oh so pretty...That sounds a lot like my Lady Form she is always getting Dressed and Re-Dressed... :) Yours Lady is Looking very Lovely today...A Big Fabric Rosette would look lovely at the end of that sash of hers where it meets up with the skirt...She looks ready for the National Dress Form Pageant... :) and it looks as though she is going to be crowned Miss Dress Form Lady From Indiana.... : )

    She is all glammed up (but not too much!) and ready to go! I think she looks wonderfully romantic...

    Oh to find such a pretty! I look and look, but won't pay the big price. Am I cheap? LOL
    Your girl is lucky that you change out her dress every so often. She looks great in her ruffles, Nicki. :-) Sue
