I really just wanted to post some pics of my sweet girl, but I figured while I am at it I ought to explain how I made her awesome tutu.  SO EASY, SO CHEAP!! Boutiques want upwards of $30 to sell you one so why not make your own and save a ton, plus you can have it exactly how you want it. 



I bought my tulle in a spool online.  It was under $2 for 25 yards of 6 inch wide tulle! I got a piece of elastic and tied the tulle around it. You fold the tulle in ahlf to make a loop then stick the ends through to tie it on in such a way that it is easily moved or untied.  Then when it was the fullness I wanted I sewed ribbon to the ends of the elastic to make the ties. 

Turned out pretty cute eh? I made the whole thing for about 3 bucks! And man she is CUTE!
