Great weekend! Lots of paintin going on. How cool to paint a vintage dress form? Ya think? I bought this shabby dress form about 5 years ago at a yard sale, I wanted to paint it antique white and sand it down just a tad to give it more of a vintage feel, never got around to do that but still a great yard sale find. So much fun to paint! How would you paint this? I’ve taken it apart so that I can pull my cotton/silk fabric over it tightly. Here is the original.
Its a great start for a piece of art. This is cotton fabric. I’ll add much more later…This most likely will be a portrait piece. I’m also thinking that little black dress. Its got lots of possibilities. Let me know your thoughts?

Great idea, Teresa! I’m looking forward to see what you make with the fabric. Mia
You are so clever! I can’t wait to see what you do with the painted fabric!

I like your dress form just the way it is. And it has inspired you to make a cool image on fabric! I can see embellishments on it, perhaps?
What a cool idea! I LOVE IT- it is a terrific piece just as it is. If you make it a portrait piece I’m sure you will make it even more fabulous!
