Tutu Shorts Costume Tutorial

One of my girls at dance picked out a costume online that was way too expensive for what it was.  I knew that I could make her the same thing for way less.  Also, I could add the embellishments as it was being made.

Here is our inspiration from The Line Up costume company:

Before Pinterest

With Pinterest exploding with popularity, it's hard to imagine what we use to do before it existed!  When I joined last summer, only 3 of my Facebook friends had an account!  Now most of my friends and family are "pinning," as I'm sure the same is true with you!  I use to keep a folder on my computer with anything I found cute online.  Basically the same concept without the links to the site and not as cool!

Here are some of the items I kept that I thought were cute and worth saving!

A lot of these I have gone back and found and pinned.
