Dancing Ghost Bride


I loved my wedding dress; it was the marriage that was the problem. So, after one of my daughters wore it to a formal, we decided it would make a great Halloween decoration.

Last year I used an upside-down tomato cage, this year I added a chicken wire bodice.

Tomato cages are the best option I’ve found for making ghosts; this time of year I am taking them off all the plants, anyway.

An old store fixture and a broken snow rake handle are the frame.

Because I didn’t want her to blow over or away while dancing in the wind, we pounded a few large stakes to hold down the fixture.

It was easier to put the dress on the form and THEN squish the wire as needed.

Tomato cages have three legs; I used two for her chest and one to hang off the frame.

Ta-DAH!!

Another GREAT, fast, cheap and easy idea brought to you by the Pajari Girls 🙂 (pronounced, PIE-ree)!
