* * * * D r e s s ~ F o r m s * * * *





"Passion" in *my* dictionary spells: D r e s s ~ F o r m !
Font size



Over the years, I've had the pleasure of owning many different

forms of the art--both male & female, of course!





The dress form above is may all-time favorite . . . now under the loving care

of Patty from "Gathering" . . . this antique was the hardest to

part with--for obvious reasons!!!





Construction may be wicker . . .


(Lost content here and can't figure out how to replace it . . . sorry!!!)



. . . or perhaps leather and iron!!!





. . . . there's a strange appeal to the many and varied forms of

"human/especially female/physical shapes"

in the realm of *couture* . . . .





For me, a show is not complete with at least one torso, hand,

head, dress form or mannequin to

complete the display.





I seem to attract them like magnets . . . maybe it's

"The Secret"!!!!!!





Whatever "it" is, I feel blessed to have this art-form in

my repertoire. Many of these lovelies have been

sold . . . but a few are still at home!





If you're on the *hunt*, please drop me a line,

and I'll check to see if my "quiet little

family" can spare a member!





This post is in celebration of my ALL NEW HEADER, which Jim

patiently (?) helped me to reconstruct. The New Year

lies ahead . . . and I'm searching for better

and better ways to bring a world

of beauty to your life!!





Thanks once more to my kindred-spirit customers who

appreciate what I do and encourage me

to continue--even when it may

be difficult to stay the

course!!!!!





The Holiday Season is in full swing . . . and the upcoming


as 2nd Saturdayz will be brimming with

amazing treasures for your holiday

gift shopping and lots of

good cheer!!!


PLEASE SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESS . . . we are here for YOU!!!!
