DIY Tutu

Halloween is upon us and one of my favorite holidays. My girl's are dressing up as Dorothy and the Wicked Witch from the Wizard of Oz. I plan to portray the Wicked Witch as not so wicked for my two year old, Charlotte and for that we need a TUTU! Since the Witch is primarily green and black I chose black and green glitter tool from Hobby Lobby. Make sure you don't try to craft on Sundays because they are closed.

The easiest way to start is by measuring your kiddos waist and subtract 4 inches to cut the elastic. You can then hot glue the elastic together for the "no-sew" option. Then you measure the length you want the tutu to be and cut a piece of cardboard this length. Next, you wrap the tool around the cardboard and cut where you started to make your strips but the main point is that the strips need to be twice as long as you need the tutu to be in length.

Next, you can layer two or three pieces and tie a knot around the elastic. 

Perfect for the Wicked Witch!
