    Default anyone make your own dress form?

    Has anyone made a dress form like this? How did it hold up with use? I have an old floor lamp I could use as a base... might have to give this a try.

    yes, it is real claustrophobic so have a 'friend with scissors" stand by in case you freak out.

    i used a dress makers dummy from a thrift store. my body double resides in a box in the closet.
    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.

    ~I have one of these: VTG MIB 20s MY DOUBLE DRESS FORM ANTIQUE WIRE MANNEQUIN | eBay
    I haven't had anywhere to set it up in 10 years. It's in storage. *sigh*
    You have somewhere to store your homemade form, right?~
