Mini Bust Forms


I got these bust forms from work a few weeks ago-can you believe they were going to throw them in the trash? I've had my eye on them for the last few years and I lucked out by being there that day. They are really nice and heavy and made almost like the old-fashioned ones were. They were used in our jewerly department to hang necklaces on-and I got a couple a few years ago that are all black!


I'm linking up with http://fadedcharmcottage.blogspot.com/ for White Wednesday!

    Oh my! I absolutely LOVE these. I've only seen a couple of them in stores around here in older shops, what a fantastic find. These would certainly be awesome to hang jewelry/pendants off of. Congrats on the Spectacular Acquisition!

    I know this thread is old now but i am interested in buying one or a few if you still have them or are interested in letting some go.... I am a fashion student originally from Oregon but moved to the UK to do a degree in bespoke tailoring and dressmaking. These are mini dress stands perfect for toiling mini garments before making the real thing. If interested could you email me at matthew.karp@hotmail.com
