Toilet Paper Wedding Dresses
Brides are emotional. Brides cry. Brides need something absorbent to wipe their tears away. So I guess the thought of making a toilet paper wedding dress makes sense….. right? ….
Cheap Chic Weddings runs an annual contest asking contestants to design and create wedding dresses out of toilet paper, tape glue, and/or needle/thread. Perhaps some of you know the rules having been faced with the daunting task at a friend’s bridal shower. Having never been faced with the real-life challenge myself, I wouldn’t even know how to begin. It seems like a daunting task!
One of my friends attended a bridal shower and shared these pics.
How cute are they? I love all the details like the peplum skirt (so trendy right now!), the flower details (how much toilet paper did they use, I wonder?) and asymmetrical straps (you see that pleated crumb catcher front?). Clearly, there were some true fashionistas at this shower.
There’s the scissor and toilet paper roll in the background to prove this is the real deal! If you ask me, that’s some pretty talented taping! I was thoroughly impressed!
That is, until I saw the winners of the cheap chic weddings toilet paper wedding dress contest. O. M. G
 
These girls deserve honorary F.I.T degrees though I wouldn’t be surprised if they already graduated with honors. Vera Wang, here are your new hires!
Personally, I think miss 3rd place should have won the $1000 grand prize -what about you? Here she is having just taped up 20 rolls of toilet paper.
Using only 4 rolls of toilet paper, here is the toilet paper wedding dress contest winner, Susan Brennan
In my next post, I’ll share some photos and ideas from my very own bridal shower!
