a tutu for my Lulu

Well this isn't MY idea - in fact I just found it blog surfing. I'm good at copying other peoples good ideas...and Lucy LOVES this! She wore it from morning to night on Conference Sunday. I had to hide it so it wouldn't get too trashed before Halloween. You can find the step-by-step here...but it is really easy! I bought my tulle at Joannes because honestly I'm a novice and don't always think...Walmart is 1/2 the price and has way more colors. I'll remember that for the next time that I make one. Oh, also for the elastic hair band make sure it doesn't have the grippy no-slip stuff on it! That made a lot harder.

The girl that I copied it from mentioned maybe doing it in yellow and black for a cute, fancy bumble bee, wouldn't that be too cute!!!

If you have any questions just ask!!

Here is the finished look on Lucy

Kim you did a great job! I made Hadley one but she has gotten to big for it now. Having little girls is so fun! Even though Collin had fun with the tutu I made Josh won't let him wear it.

That is so cute!! Madi and Lily are also going to be sportin' some sassy tutus at Halloween. They are going as witches. Too fun!
