I LOVE the picture with your dress form on the table balanced by a lamp on each side!

What a great dress form! This would be perfect for fitting skirts as well... I must get in and make myself a new one of these.

Love it! It is so cold in Sweden so I am waiting for more warm weather before I start with my dressform. How much tape did you use? Hope my husband will do the same for me.
