Mannequin, dress form, or dummy?

Yay!

My scarves, necklaces, belts, and eventually a few shoulder bags have a place to hang.

A friend of mine had three dress forms ready for her estate sale. 

She reserved this one for me.

She's a vintage beauty!

Once the bedroom gets arranged the way I have planned, this gal will be up there next to an antique dressing table, and a dressing screen.

UNFORTUNATELY...we are still waiting for Mr. Lakehouse to finish making the mantle that goes in the living room, so the little mantle piece can go in the bedroom....can you hear the hair growing on my legs?

I now resemble the werewolf in the movie, "Werewolf from London".

To keep it from dragging along on the floor. I back comb the hair, and have it done in an up-do.

Anywho.....depending on what size I am, the form can accommodate my clothing.

I actually bought her more for accessories, than clothing.

At first, Mr. Lakehouse was confused(hahahahaha, how NOT unusual that is).

He couldn't figure out why I would buy a mannequin that didn't have arms, legs, or a head????

Oh my.

I tried explaining to him that this was a dress form, and not a "dummy"(as he kept referring to it).....which he still didn't grasp.

Which made me wonder who the dummy was.

So, he was all creeped out to think she'd be standing in our bedroom at night, with no head(which I thought would be less creepy, than having someone staring at me every night with just a head, and no limbs).

WHATEVER!!!!

Once the bedroom gets all prettied up...I will share pictures, and a post.

Until then....

Au revoir.
