Day 1 - Material Girl Tutu

I've been eyeing this tutu for a LONG time but never took the time to make it because let's face it, even though Easton would look cute in almost anything, it just wouldn't go over with daddy!  However, now that I've got this great blog going I thought it was a perfect excuse to do something girly.

This was such a fun one to make.  Here's the short of how I did it.

1) I cut strips of material that were about 15 inches long by 1 3/4 inches wide.  I then cut a piece of ribbon that was about 3 feet long (just to have some extra room to work with).

2) Next I started knot tying the strips of material to the ribbon.  Similar to how you tie a tie.

3) And to finish up, you just have to know your measurements for the size of kiddo you are making this for.  I had to trim the ends up on the tutu because it was too long for Ms. Natalie and she is 12 months old.  When I put this for sale on my Etsy site I will know to trim my strips a little shorter for a 6-18 month old!

Precious Natalie modeling for me!  She is beyond cute!!!
