Yes, it's a waste but some of the designs are pretty incredible.

1. I liked the 3rd place winners dress better

:hi:

2. Far more skill is involved in making the dresses

than I'd ever thought.

3. I keep wanting to crack a joke, but my mind seems wiped clean

at the moment. Let's just say that corn cobs would be far more durable.

6. But not so easy to work with.

It really is a more creative solution to spending thousands on a wedding dress.

8. True dat! Just hope the bride don't spill any liquids on herself. Her

modesty might dissolve before our very eyes.

10. or sweat

Not that women do that sort of thing. We don't sweat. We just... glisten attractively. We... glow. Yes, that's it.

4. A waste?

Geez, a typical wedding gown can run like $500-$25000 and you only wear it one time.

At least with this gown you can wear it once and when you're done you can use it to wipe yourself for about a year or so.

5. True that.

One of the refashioning sites I visit is planning on remaking a wedding gown. She's getting married in the next year and instead of buying a new gown she's buying one from a thrift store and refashioning it into something more modern.

I like some of her other refashions so the wedding dress should be interesting.

7. Straining for results. n/t

9. I like the 2nd place winner the best.

11. Great idea -- unused toilet paper can be added to the compost pile.

How many people can say their wedding dress was used to enhance the soil? Makes me want to get married again.

13. Now that's a good way to look at it! nt

12. Wow - cool!

I have a feeling that the people who designed these have more creativity in their little fingers than I do in my whole body. :-(
