Tu-Tu Onsie

Every little girl needs a tutu!!! (hey big girls need them too, they just might feel a lil silly wearing one! ha ha)

Here is a really, really, really simple way to make a tutu onsie!
SO EASY!!!!

Things you'll need...
*Onsie (size, color, style is totally up to you)
*about 15 yards of tulle (more or less depending on the size you are doing)
*enough elastic band to go around the waist
*needle & thread
*sissors
1st...measure the amount of elastic you will need by simply wrapping around the waist of the onsie about 4-5 inches above the leg hole.
Next...sew on the piece of elastic in four places just enough to secure it to the onsie (about 1/8" section)...the front, back and both sides.
3rd...cut your tulle into strips (however long you want the skirt double that) i cut mine into 18" strips
4th...tie the tulle strips right in the middle into a double knot keeping each strip close together to avoid gaps...make sure u pull the knots secure
5th...once you have tied all of the tulle to fill the entire waist of the dress, you can bling it up a little by adding a bow
.......and in (seriously) LESS than 30 minutes......


I LOVE IT!!!
Super easy & Super cute!!!

Much love & More to come
