DIY of the Day: Tara Frey’s mom Kerrin spent six years working on her daughter’s prom dress. What took her so long? Well, most of the time was spent gathering up enough Starburst candy wrappers to make a wearable article of clothing. “It’s going to be a little bit too much attention,” Tara said of her Starburst dress, shoes, flowers, and purse. “But hey, she worked hard on it.”
As sweet serendipity would have it, Tara and her date — who received a matching Starburst vest — may actually end up being the best-dressed couple. “Our theme for the prom is ‘Candyland,” Tara said. “So kind of lucked out on that one.”
