My latest project (well, one of them) was a trial run of a
Tutu for my nieces. This one I made with fabric I already had so I could make
sure I got the effect I wanted before wasting resources... which is why it is
bright red. I am going to add some embellishments so it tones down the wow
factor but I am very pleased with the result. It is full and phoofy (is that
even a word?) and so pretty. The next ones will be different colours and I am
going to use a few colours swirled up in each one which I think will look
lovely but I need to find a good supply of tulle first.
I don’t know how I find the random things I do when I am
youtubing but the other night I watched a tutorial on how to make fascinators.
I couldn’t help wondering just how pretty some of the girls metallic green and
purple feathers would look curled into fascinating fascinator fancies. Doris’s
black and white feathers would look like zebra stripes. I’m not sure that
Castlecliff is ready for me to swan around in a fancy fascinator but I may make
one all the same, just because I can.
