Teen Makes Prom Dress Out Of Starburst Wrappers

We give Michigan teen Diane McNease credit for creativity and for shunning the trend of extremely opulent and pricey prom dresses. Diane went to her prom wrapped in candy wrappers – yep she carefully crafted a  dress made from donated Starburst remains.

Diane McNease came up with the idea of making her prom dress out of Starburst wrappers when she saw a friend folding some wrappers a year ago. It took her a year and a half to collect enough wrappers to make the corset of her dress. To go along with it, she also made matching hair bands and a purse. She says it took around 18,000 wrappers.
