Covering a mannequin - what to cover it with?

All women love beauty and aesthetics of appearance, so this function is simply necessary. The end of this work lies precisely in this process.

We cover it with plaster. The finished layout is carefully wrapped in cellophane film. A medical bandage is wrapped around the entire mannequin. In some places several layers are used. With wet hands, ironing the surface of a fresh layer of plaster will smooth out all the defects. This method is not the easiest. It will take more precious time to create it than we would like.

How to cover with fabric

Mostly women are far from such materials as plaster. It is necessary to find some simpler, traditional options. Accessible for everyone and which will be most familiar to them.

Fabric is the most readily available and easy-to-use material.You won’t need a lot of it for covering, and the price is absolutely reasonable. Perhaps any woman who knows how to sew can master this process. Little time will be wasted. When performing it, you must rely on the following sequence of events:

  • preparation of a finished model made of any material;
  • fabric must be selected with a minimum density to prevent an increase in the volume of the layout;
  • choose the color based on your own priorities, this will not affect the quality in any way;
  • measure pieces of fabric for further uniform application;
  • coat with PVA glue, then apply measured pieces of fabric;
  • if necessary, sew places such as: neck, back, seam at the bottom of the layout.

If you complete all the above points, you will get something like this:
