Trash Corset

See what you can do with a little canvas, duct tape and a garbage bag in five hours? It looks a tad BDSM at the moment, but with the addition of the foliage (thanks for the preservation tip Nichole!) it should fit the yard work theme little better. I'm still frustrated that I cannot find a rake that will suit my needs, but I have yet to exhaust all of my resources.

I do, however, still need ideas for how to close it up the back. I want to steer clear of the tradition lacing and I'm far to lazy to bend paper clips into hooks and eyes. The outfit may be trash...but it still must be durable. And wearable. The outfits will be paraded around all three days and as a result must be able to stand up to the rigors of being worn and taken on and off repeatedly...like any other piece of clothing. So tape, glue and twist ties are out of the question too.

Maybe paper clip hooks aren't such a bad idea afterall...

By week's end I may have the skirt done.
