Poor Lady Anita Man is so exhausted, I found her resting on a garden bench!
The Dress Form Ball was a total success!! I thought maybe 25 people would link up their forms. No, there wasn't 25.......There was 107!...Faint, I'm going to faint!
From the bottom of my heart, Thank You.
To those that linked their fabulous dress forms and those who left comments
Speaking of comments.....Chosen from the comments by Random.org the winner of the dress form from Barr Display is.....
...Aledia from "Plum Perfect"........Congratulations!
Now a little housekeeping
The doorman has informed me a few articles were left behind and need to be claimed....Geez, who would leave just one shoe...Crazy?

And about Lady Anita Man, Say "Anita Man" 3 times quick...groan!
Well, that wraps it up....Unless someone can tell me how to get rid of lingering guests!
Thank You for making the Dress Form Ball a HUGE success!
Happy Valentines Day!

Oh my goodness I had such a great time at the ball!
ReplyDeleteWho would have left their one shoe-darn they are cute to.
I suggest you remove the champagne and i am sure those extra guests will leave!lol lol
Thanks for a great time
Congrats to the lucky winner-I am so jealous!
It was a great party, Carol! Congrats to Aledia!
ReplyDeleteThat was fun and I'm glad we will still be able to look at it because I haven't had time to go through them all yet. I am inspired to make one of those half dress forms--and I plan to do it before the next ball. Trust me--now with all these ideas I think she will be lovely!
ReplyDeleteCarol,
ReplyDeleteIt was a pleasure!! I am glad you are going to add a link so we can enjoy all the Belles of the Ball whenever we want!
So many great ideas and such inspiration!
Thanks again for hosting! So looking forward to next year's Ball. I am sure I will have a few more beauties by then because I am off to order my dress form since I did not win the giveaway. Congrats to Aledia!!
Hugs,
Debbie

ReplyDeleteWow, Carol, what a great turnout you had! I did get to see a few of the lovely guests from some of the blogs I follow. I just found out I may be "adopting" my own from a new friend, so I'll be able to join in next time.
ReplyDeleteI'll mark my calendar for next year's dress form ball! Looking forward to it!

The ball was a success!
ReplyDeleteHedy has been resting from all the....dancing...twirling...swooning...champagne-ing...singing...the merriment of the evening.
May I say "she had the time of her life". And, will be looking all year for her next perfectly perfect outfit for the Dress Form Ball 2013.
We want to thank you for being such a gracious hostess.... and letting us be apart of your party.
xoso
HEDY and Sandy
Oh I LOVE it!!!! and I LOVED the Ball... Oh and those lingering guest look like they are still having themselves a Good 'Ol time so they should be allowed to linger just a bit longer... However Anita Man needs to get herself off of the Bench because that is MOST unbecoming especially for a Lady of her Standing... :) Thank you so Much for hosting and I am looking forward to Next Years Ball.... :) Oh and a BIG congratulations to your Winner!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Anita Man lying on the bench is great. Loved your Ball, will be ready in 2013!
ReplyDeleteThank you for hosting this Carol! You did such an amazing job, Happy Valentines Day <3
ReplyDeleteCarol, I had such a great time at the ball and had a blast fixing up Ms. Bertha. She had a great time and wants to go back next year. Her sister out in my studio heard about and and wants to attend next year (sibling rivalry). I'm afraid she will take a lot more work to get her fixed up but I promised so I will do it. My computer died on Friday and so I am on a new computer and missed seeing all the beautiful ladies so I am glad you will have pictures posted.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for hosting this great party which I am sure will be an annual event.
My mani with the attitude had a wonderful time! She's already thinking about what to wear next year!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great ball all the forms looked wonderful, I will be getting my dress form ready for next year. What fun. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThis was just so much fun!!! Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteYour Lady Anita is so dramatic...!!!
Thanks Carol, Olivia had a "ball". That was so fun and we are looking forward to next years party. Good job.

Congratulations on your wonderful, successful party! I'm glad you're going to make it a yearly event. That gives me a full year to actually buy one and do something fabulous with it. I enjoyed snooping about until my computer got a blogging injury.
ReplyDeleteChecking in on borrowed time from a borrowed clunker. Ah, life...
This was so much fun. My girls will be talking about it for the rest of the year. They're already trying to decide what to wear. Thanks for such a fun party:-)
ReplyDeleteGreat party, Carol...and so funny!!!
