Anyone ever sell their wedding dress?

I am thinking about selling my wedding dress.  I got it preserved in a box the day after the wedding, and was going to keep for sentimental reasons and to possibly make into a baby blanket or something one day.  But it has been sitting in that box for 4 years and I don't think I will ever actually do anything with it.  Has anyone sold their wedding dress?  Where did you sell it (online, consignment shop, etc)?  TIA!

  • I've saved mine with the plan of making Christening & Namakarana outfits out of it.  It's been sitting in a closet @ my parents house for 3 years now.

  • Mine has been listed on preownedweddingdresses.com for almost 6 months now and no one has been interested. I am thinking about donating it at this point because it is taking up a lot of closet space in a house with exactly two small closets.

  • I had mine cut up and made into pillows for my bedroom.  The one that's the shape of the bodice is kind of creepy though.

    You were the one that inspired me to do it (I used to lurk a lot on TTC after 35)!

    That's funny. I do remember that I mentioned it there.
