Well, at first I thought I would try selling it in my booth as is. But no one seemed to be interested in just the top...although I thought it would make a great table top or counter display piece.
After a little creativity...and a little help from Dear Hubs...
She has a new life as a stand up model! We used a curtain rod and an old floor lamp (base) painted silver. I decided to match the industrial style metal in the dress form. She now resides in our antique booth near Hershey, PA.I think she's enjoying her new outlook on the world. We'll see if she finds a new home.
Just as an extra bit of fun today... see if you can come up with a name for her and we'll track her progress in the days to come!
Second chances are lots of fun! Join in today if you'd like by using the Mr. Linky below.
Your hubby did a great job! Hope it sells soon. I enjoyed your cookie post! For one thing, I love choc chip cookies! My daughter wants to eat the dough. I know it's not health smart but she loves it.
ReplyDeleteThe message in that post was great. One of my favorite scriptures.

Jillian,
ReplyDeleteGreat job you two did on that mannequin! She looks like Molly Model to me! LOL! :)
Love,

She looks too new to me ~ probably circa 1960s? How about Sandy or Barbara (which would have been a popular name in that era)? I think she should model vintage aprons or clothing for your booth. She looks a little naked!
ReplyDeleteGreat solution! She looks great as a stand up model. I love those old dress forms, too.
