She is Ready for Thanksgiving...

Thanksgiving will be here before you know it! I'm sure I am not the only one pulling out the Thanksgiving decor this week! Here is my Dress Form, she is ready for the occasion.....
She came together very easily and the results were beautiful!
 She looks very regal on posed on my stairwell! I know she will be a hit with our guests this season!
There is Beauty in the details...
 So pleased with her outcome...This is my first attempt of a Thanksgiving Dress Form...
She's stunning!
 Directions for Dressing the Dress Form:

  • A wide strip of burlap, long enough to wrap around the shoulders, then crisscross around the waist
  • String or twine to secure the burlap at the waist, tie a bow or a knot. This will provide a place to tie on the strips of netting, creating the skirt
  • As mentioned above, cut stips of netting to create a fluffy longer tutu effect and tie onto the string/twine
  • Use a simple leather belt, "pilgrimish" looking to secure the waist
  • 1- Thanksgiving swag draped across the front at the waist, secure to the belt
  • Additional greenery in the same colors, slipped through the belt in the back in an upward position, creating a look of the fullness behind the dress form.
  • Various Pheasant feathers from the craft store, place in and around the greenery
Simple, easy and quick with stunning results....
Have a beautiful Thanksgiving...
Have a blessed Holiday....
