I am going to make the leap into
"Big girl" blogging!
I'm going to have a one time Dress Form Linky Party
February 7-13th!
I wanted to give you some time to get the girls (Dress Forms) ready for the party. Old, new, homemade, altered, big, small......All forms are welcome.
Link up as many dress form posts as you like, old posts, new posts..No sense reinventing the wheel if you already have a dress form post
I even followed Debbiedoo's tutorial and made myself a blog button, oh ya, I'm getting real fancy now!
The back ground graphic I got free at "Free Pretty Things for You" and the dress form was from "Graphics Fairy"

I'm a little nervous, I have never done a linky Party

Hi Carol!
I have 2 mini dress forms! One I rec'd from a swap and the other from an estate sale. The
"GIRLS" will be here!
I also need a reminder! Guess I better find something for them to wear! LOL..
Warmly,
deb
I have one! I will be there, please remind me.
Me and Olivia will be there too. How fun!
Sounds fun! I'll join in with Kate. Kate's cousin may also make an appearance (if she doesn't find a new home before then). Just keep reminding us!
I will definitely be supporting and checking it out Carol. You weren't talking to me were you LOL!
Ooooo this is going to be awesome!!! I can't wait to see all those dress forms!!!I don't own a full size dress form(not that I wouldn't LOVE one!) but I just started sewing some mini dress forms that are going to be about 15" and I am going to dress them up with all sorts of embellishments so if those count then I'm in! :)
Hi Carol,
I don't have true dress forms but make dress form pin cushions/jewelry hangers. Does that count?
WISH I had a dress form. Saving up for one (thanks to your tuts, I know where to get them cheap!
Smiles, Suzanne
(From my dashboard)
And either way, I'll be happy to place your button on my sidebar :)
Oh and Feb 7th is my birthday- just noticed the exact date of your party. Lucky me!
~Suzanne in Illinois
I have a dream of someday having a dress form in my house- either functional to use for sewing or to dress up in pretties! (I'd probably change her clothing/embellishments with the seasons, knowing me). Maybe this year one will show up at a yard sale.
I hope your linky party is a smashing success!
I have one I just finished and a couple more lurkers in my house waiting for me to do something with them! This will be fun! Julia
sounds fun....I have owned my nameless dress form for almost 20 yrs..she is verrrry old.
Dont blog much anymore......more of a lurker lately but this is a great way to jump in again :)
My first dress form was delivered on Saturday-I thank you for the link and info...My husband thinks I am crazy-Excited to figure out what I want to do.
Nanette and Babette are so excited about this, but they are demanding new dresses for the party! I hope they won't be too embarrassed to come after seeing your beauty!
Oh wow Carol, this sounds like a lot of fun, I will have to join in on all the fun or else I'll be the big loser....lol
I have a dress form and did a post on her, i will just have to do another one for your party.....by the way her name is Belle, for the Belle of the ball....giggles!
xo~

Hee-hee-hee, Carol! Big girl! :) I'm being a big girl too by hosting a dotty swap soon!
I'll have to check out that tutorial! Thanks!
I have a dress form TAG that my friend Kim made me. Maybe I'll link that up! :)
Wish I had a dress form! I have been searching... no luck yet.. soon I hope!
I have one, but it s a newer one made of bright royal blue fabric. Yuk. Would this still work, without me having to completely recover this thing? It doesn't look vintagey at all unfortunately.
Julie
A friend of mine found your blog. She lives in FL and plans to visit your booth soon. She loves your blog and now, so do I! I will join your dress form party. I have 4 dress forms right now (just sold the 5th one yesterday). One is in my bedroom and the other three are in the garage awaiting a trip to my antique booth. Anyway, I decorate and redecorate them all the time. This party is so for me! Can't wait to link up on February 4th!! See you then!
Oops! I mean the 7th of February! See you then!
I sure wish I hadn't given mine away when I moved to this small house. I didn't know anyone else liked them until I started my blog.

gee what a great idea I had... I mean you had lol I'll be linking my dress forms up as well~
No one will turn up!??? Are you kidding me?? (that's the second time I have said that today :) I think this party is going to be huge Carol. Great idea!!!
LOL you KNOW it will be HUGE and I will be there !

You're a hoot, Carol. I look forward to figuring out how to get mine uploaded to yours! Thank goodness you gave us a few days to prepare ourselves. Hope all is well. Denise
Your "loser picture" and blogger hall of shame comment made me laugh right out loud! Yes... that's exactly why I don't do things like that. I'm a big fat hairy chicken.
Your party will be great. I just know it. That's because you are as far from the big "L" as you can get.
But... I don't have a dress form.
Yet.
I love them, though, so we'll see.
I will, however, put you right up on the side board of my blog for advertising.
Thanks so much for linking. I have marked my calendar!
Can't wait!
Patti
Please count me in, would love to attend the party.
Michele
Just found your blog, Carol, and I'm your newest follower. I have a dress form and I'd love to join the party. I'm off to paste you (most excellent!) button on Cottage and Creek.
