I made a DIY dress form. Was it worth it?

Hi everyone! In this video I’m going to show you the process of making a DIY dress form, and also chat through the benefits of making one yourself and whether or not I think it was worth it. I hope you enjoy!

PS, I apologize for the focus issues throughout the video. I was using a new camera and I’m still getting used to the settings!
