Stable, Adjustable Dress Form Stand by Anna from Tea n a Sewing Machine, featured at FineCraftGuild.com

This week’s linky party winner is Anna from Tea and a Sewing Machine (love that blog title). Please follow her too. You’ll find her social media buttons on her blog, as well as the party feature…

 

This Week’s Party Feature: …

Adjustable Dress Form Stand

Everyone who has a dress form has had Anna’s problem, at least to some degree. I laughed out loud when I saw her solution and it’s just so brilliant.

How to Make Your Own Adjustable Dress Form Stand

For more pictures and the how-to make your own adjustable dress form stand, hop over to Tea and a Sewing Machine.

In my home, we use our dress form to showcase favorite clothing, pieces we have just bought, ‘what to wear tomorrow’, jewelry, handbags, cardigans, and hats we have no time to put away, plus anythings seasonal/whimsical… What we have discovered that if we keep it loaded but balanced, it stays put well. A bit of weight seems to help stability. We also put it in a corner, so that bumping into it is less likely.

Nonetheless, if you have no space to leave your dress form out and on display, Anna’s solution is perfect: pack it up and go. Or, to leave Anna’s solution on permanent display, as with a real Christmas tree, I’d put a skirt over that ‘ugly plastic’. I am thinking of some nice and drapey velvet at the bottom, which would add to the bottom weight of it.
What do you think? What are you doing with your dress form? Any issues with the stand? What are you doing about it? Leave us a comment below.

    A skirt thing would make it nicer. It would also cover up the snowflakes on the stand that I won’t want to see in July!
