Welcome Home, Hannah!

What's It Wednesday #85

I'm thrilled to present to you my exciting new find, Hannah! I've sighed and whined over all the gorgeous dress forms I've seen on your blogs. Oh, the parties I couldn't attend, and the fun dress up challenges I've longed to participate in, too.

Now that's all in the past, since Hannah waltzed through the front door. I'd begged my friend Shelagh, who runs a thrift store, to sell me this dress form for over a year ago. She refused EVERY TIME I asked, and I asked a LOT!

But fortune was on my side last Saturday when I asked one last time, as sadly the store is closing. Not only did she say, “yes” (wait for it) she sold it to me for $25.00!!! I was over the moon.

The heavy iron base, all the stenciling and original sticker had me doing the happy dance! I couldn't wait to get her home.

I've had so much fun dressing her up with these old lace collars, pearls and some sparkly bling. I just love her!

Bring on the parties, this Cinderella's ready for the ball! Welcome home, Hannah!

Hugs,

Patti
