K, completely off subject. But, recently I had a reader email me asking if I knew how to make a tutu. Um, sorry, NO! I'm actually one of the least crafty people I know. But, I thought this might be useful information to post since I'm guessing most people who read this blog probably have a little girl or know someone who does. And lets face it, what little girl wouldn't love to get all dressed up in a tutu?? So, I did some searching online and this is what I found: Making a tutu instructions. The instructions on that post are for a cute little tutu halter dress. And here's one more: No sew tutu instructions. It actually looks fairly easy. Maybe I'll give it a try myself!? Or if you're extremely lazy like me, you could buy one. Several of the boutiques on my sidebar also sell tutus. Sometimes it's more fun for someone else to do the work!
In other business: I just noticed Girly Dos by Jenn is having a giveaway for the cutest bow holder you've ever seen. So, head on over for a chance to win it!

This is exactily how i made the tutus I used to sell! The only thing I did differently was I put them on a ribbon instead of elastic.
ReplyDeleteI taught my 14 y/o son how to make one of the no-sew tutus for his littlest sister for Christmas. She wore the heck out of it for quite a while there, even the grocery store and stuff, so he was glad to see his hard work paid off. They're easy enough to make, just time consuming!
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting this, I have wanted to make some :) Hopefully I don't mess it up! Have a great day!!
ReplyDeleteTutus are fun to make. I have instructions for making them and wings and wands on my blog at buslizzybows.blospot.com. I am also having a giveaway this week on korker bows.

ReplyDeleteThat second link, is the exact one that I used to learn how to make them. I sold them over the holidays to make a little extra money. They are really easy, just take a little time. We love tutu's here so much, that Paige has four! :)
ReplyDeleteI looked on YOUTUBE and found a great video a woman did on How to make a Tutu. It was done in about 25 minutes. I have it on my website. Mine is HUGE...I doubled the amount of material and made it on a beautiful satin ribbon.
