    Prepare all your tools and supplies.

    Obraz

    Find a under hip lenght, old fit to body t-shirt. Wear it and then wrap your neck with a fod foil to secure it (as shown on the picture).

    Obraz

    In those few steps ask your friend to help you in wrapping your silhouette with the duct tape. First stripe under your breasts (make sure it is tight enough). Next stripes crossed in between the breasts as shown on the picture.

    Obraz

    Continue wrapping one by one.

    Obraz

    Carefully take off the part of the food foil that covers your neck and make some kind of a "tape collar" as you can see on the picture. Finish the first part when you gain the effect of new, "tape t-shirt".

    Obraz

    This is how it should look like at the back. Wrap more tape evenly from your waist till the end of your t-shirt line, do it tight!

    Obraz

    Now make an even cut on the back part of your form to enable taking it off.

    Obraz

    Last but not least, use your tape again to get rid of the cut.

    Fill the form with the pillow filling or small pieces of fabric leftovers. Finish your work sticking the form on your metal base, and voila it is ready to use with any sewing project.
