(CANVAS STAFF REPORTS) - A wedding gown became a form of therapy for a jilted husband.
After Kevin Cotter's wife walked out on him she left behind her wedding dress, telling Cotter he could do whatever he wanted with the pearl-and-lace gown.
So he started My Ex-Wife's Wedding Dress , a blog detailing some unusual ways to use the bridal gown. The blog was born after Cotter's sister-in-law jokingly suggested he could find 101 things to do with the dress, ABC News reported.
The dress can double as: a pasta strainer, sports banner, yoga mat, painter's cover sheet, ice pack, jump rope, camera lens cleaner, fire escape rope, gym towel, barbecue cover, dog bed and Christmas tree skirt.
To date, he has 23 uses for the gown – and a growing following online. The blog, launched May 6, has received hundreds of thousands of hits and some interesting suggestions, including using the dress to plug the hole in the leaking well in the Gulf of Mexico.
Cotter recently posted on his blog that he is "not a husband scorned." He writes that, "I'm not even an angry ex-husband ... I'm just a guy who got stuck with his ex's dress and thought 101 uses for it might make a funny book."
The Tucson, Ariz., man has called the project therapeutic and hopes to write a book about the experience.
Cotter doesn't refer to his ex-wife by name in the blog, however, she reportedly asked him to stop writing about the dress.
The ex-wife told ABC News in an e-mail that she did leave the dress behind but later asked that it be kept for her 9-year-old daughter.
"I wish all the best to Kevin and hope he seeks counseling to deal with his anger and resentment," she wrote. "His determination, along with his family's support, to continue with this endeavor after his children and I have asked him to stop is incomprehensible."
Cotter was married for 12 years.
