Plum Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Mum I haven't got a dress form will you be my model. I've got the chicken wire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Lady Gaga eat your heart out! I like them. Would look rather cool dotted around the land. Might scare a few people though. Very effective aren't they? Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mum Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Mum I haven't got a dress form will you be my model. I've got the chicken wire Of course!!! Best offer I've had in ages Erm, just so you know, I'm well padded and your wire dress may end up resembling a pumpkin rather than the slender, busted and waisted one in the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 A real woman then - like most of us! The dress might be a bit chilly, but there again it's very holey - good insulation like a string vest! Wonder what else you can model out of chicken wire? I bet you have to watch you don't cut your hands when cutting & bending the wire into shape. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I like the ghostly ladies-I think they're look great with sweet peas and things all growing over them. Egluntine, RE the chickens. There's a maker who supplies the 303 gallery in Martock with things like that-I particularly like the barn owls he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
