Sea Fairy Dress Form
I know I just can't stop altering dress forms...... I love it......I bought dress form in Michaels they are made of wood. I have a pic of what it looks like in my blog. Here I tried doing my take on a Sea Fairy, I was almost going to do a polluted type fairy, you know a dress form with trash on it but I changed my mind. I wanted to create something pretty. I hope I accomplished it......Let me know what you think. What I did was painted the dress form in aqua color, I used 4 different types of fabric sheer aqua and blue with sparkle I wanted it to appear like it was droplets of water, I then used shimmery fabric in green and aqua I wanted the wet effect. Then I used burlap in brown and lt. green, shiny fabric in brown and purple and fish netting too. I added a little moss to give it a seaweed effect, I cut the fabrics in strips glued them to fish netting then to dress form. I gathered at the bottom and tied with string. I then cut out a corset for top of dress form and glued it to wood....Then the actual fun started. I added sea shells, starfish, flowers, and charms on the fishnetting that was loosely hanging from dress. I wanted the impression that it was caught in fish net. I added wings with tranparent paper which I cut and spread stickles onto it. I used my embossing tool to dry stickles to wings and it warped the transparent paper which I liked. I also added clear pebbles throughout skirt, they look like drops of water. Well thats about it. Hope you all like it.....
