Tutu skirt - without needle and thread

This is what you need:    
Elastic band
Tulle
Scissor


How to:
Tie the elastic band around the waist of your model, so you are sure that the tutu skirt will get the right size. Measure how long you want the skirt to be.
Remove the elastic band.


Cut the tulle into long shreds. The shreds must be twice the lenght of the wanted result on the skirt.


Tie the tulleshreds on the elastic band one by one or apply the topsytale method.

And you are done!!!















Tip:
Place your elastic band around a chair while you tie the tulle on.
When the tutu skirt is made you can chose to place it in a rubbish bag and vacuum pack it for at least 24 hours. Then you will achieve an effect where you will be able to shape the skirt as you want, you can for example make some of the shreds longer.
 

If you feel that the tutu skirt is to big around the waist you can use a moist cloth as well as an iron to steam it.
