Tara Frey, a senior at River Falls High School in River Falls, Wis., can be certain she can avoid the terror of many a high school girl -- that someone will be wearing the same dress at the dance.
After many hours of hard work, she will be wearing a dress made entirely out of Starburst candy wrappers. With the help of her mother and the community, she also has matching shoes, earrings, bracelets, headbands and even a Starburst vest for her date.
Tara's mother would buy 20 bags of Starburst at a time to get the huge amount of wrappers needed to make the dress and the accessories. "The whole community gave us wrappers…My mom hand [Starburst] out to people and ask for the wrappers back, and don't rip them!"
美国高中生Tara Frey 再也不必为派对上的服装而发愁了,因为她亲爱的妈咪Kerrin 已经为她制作了一件糖果裙子,真正使用收集到的糖果包装纸制作的裙子。
据说Kerrin 在这上面花了6年的心思,而灵感来自某曲棍球比赛上的花样节目。从那时起Kerrin 便迷上了收集糖果包装纸。但其实收集并不是一件难事,她们常常会买来十几斤的糖果,然后叫邻居帮忙拆开(@oioi:毕竟不可能每颗都吃掉)。关键时,不要撕扯坏了。
同时为了达到编织的目的,每颗糖果包装纸还需要被折叠8次。
目前Kerrin 为女儿Tara 制作了裙子,不过这还没完,她还要继续为女儿制作糖果纸的高跟鞋、手提包、甚至是马甲等等。让女儿成为派对上最惹人爱的.
