Not so shabby but Oh so Chic


I created this new little altered art piece from a plain, un altered papier maiche dress form I purchased at Michaels a while back.  I knew I wanted to do something with it, but I could never come up with a good idea.  I started playing around with paint and paper and lace, and TA-DA!  here it is!  I think it turned out so cute in that French blue color, with the handmade little skirt and vintage buttons.  Enjoy! 

How cute would this be displayed on a shelf?  Love the way it came out!  Leave your comments :)

  4. Katie, this is just so adorable!! I was thinking of something that was actually intimidating me and now looking at yours.....I wonder why some things look complicated when they can be so simple!
