Doll up your tutu's!

Doll up your tutu with ribbons, flowers, craft puff balls, Jingle bells, sequens, craft diamonds, . I have even used glittery snowflake table scatter from the dollar store! Anything that is light-weight, soft (so's not to poke or bother the child wearing the tutu), and can be glued on!

**I just use a glue gun to glue all my stuff on. Mine is a "High Temp" cheap one that I got from Walmart years ago but it works great. I think you can get them for around $2.50. Just glue items to single layers of tulle skirt.

Ideas:

-Buy a stem of small flowers on sale in the floral craft section from Hobby Lobby or get them at Walmart. Pull the flowers off the stems and glue them randomly on the tulle.

-Packs of glittery puff balls are about $2 at Walmart or Hobby Lobby. Just glue randomly on tulle.

-I have even taken glittering craft glue, put dabs on my finger, and lightly spread it over the tops of the tulle to glitter up a tutu!

-I buy small (1/2") Jingle Bells, thread one strand of tulle through the bell, turn up the end and glue ribbon around the tulle above the bell to hold it on. (These are a choking hazard so use only for an older child!)

**Another way to get the jingle bell on is to add strips of ribbon randomly throughout the tutu. You can tie them on or glue them on. I prefer to glue them. I just spread apart the tulle to expose

the elastic band, then glue my ribbon around it.

Then thread the end of the ribbon through the bell, flip up the end and glue it to the ribbon above it to secure it.
