the dress form tutorial in the memories seems a little time consuming, so i thought i'd post this.
1. cut holes in a garbage sack for arms and head and put it on
2. tightly wrap yourself in duct tape. not your arms
3. have someone with a good pair of scissors make a cut down the entire length of the back
4. take it off and tape the back together again
5. tightly stuff with newspaper
6. seal off bottom, arm holes, and neck with more duct tape
7. if you want, you can shove a broom stick through the bottom and put it on a stand or something
alright, just though this was a quick, easy way to make a dress form and i thought i'd go ahead and share it. you can usually do it with just one roll of tape. if you gain weight you can just add paper and tape to the areas that need it, and if you lose weight you can just squeeze the form and cinch it with tape in the areas that need it. also you can stab it with pins whenever and wherever because it's dirt cheap and you don't need to worry about ruining it.
dress form,
