Chicago, IL -- Women competing in an upcoming "homemade bikini" contest hope to impress judges with their revealing swimsuits made out of old liquor bottles, vegetables and even Lucky Charms cereal.

More than 60 slinky seamstresses are expected to strut their stuff in homemade bikinis at the finals for the contest sponsored by DeKuyper Hot Damn schnapps, which will get underway Sunday in Las Vegas.

The ladies aren't allowed to use cloth in their costumes, so their itsy-bitsy, teenie-weenie swimsuits will be made from items like flowers, candy and stickers.

Insiders say agricultural themes are hot this year, with fruit bikinis in the lead and there's a rumor one contestant is making a bikini out of schnapps bottles.
