    @Mariasanchez143 8 років тому

    Hi first I want to say I'm a big fan...love your work and now I'm inspired to make different tutus for my baby.i have 2 questions and hope you can answer. the 1st one is. Is there a kind of specific tulle you use? my baby has really delicate skin. I bought the tulle from hobby lobby and it's not too nice on skin. as I was cutting the material it let out a lot of dust partical. my chest was hurting and my nose was irritated...is that normal? should I use a mask or can I bursa different type of tulle...thank you!!!

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  8 років тому

      +maria sanchez Hello! Sorry for the delayed response. Yes, some tulle does give off a yucky dust. I have found this especially with the Hobby Lobby fuchsia pink 25yard tulle. Unfortunately, I don't have a really good answer. MOST tulle does not have that dust, but none that I have used is really soft and comfy. Your best bet is to probably find a soft tulle sold by the Yard and cut it into strips yourself. Hope that helps. :) Thanks for watching.

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  9 років тому +1

      Magaly Camilo a women's mannequin will probably be too big for a child, but if it's a small dress form it should work for an older child. Try "Gifts International" online for cheaper tulle.

      No, although I have never worked with tulle fabric that didn't have some stretch to it. This technique also works with fabric tutus.

    omg that in so cute Im having a princess party for my 3girls and il trying to make tutus for them but I didn't get the 6in tulle I got the really big bulk tulle "it was on sale" lol but how do I cut it my kids are 4yr, 6yr & 7yr olds

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  8 років тому

      +MsKittycatmeow86 The best way to cut tulle on the bolt, for this style of tutu, is to roll it up like wrapping paper, and cut 6 inch wide strips. You can then apply the tulle to the crochet headband like in this tutorial. You will just trim it to your desired length when your done...or before you apply it. Hope this was helpful! :)

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  6 років тому

      It's kind of a one-size-fits-most kind of tool. I make them with elastic also. I do like that there is no elastic showing, even when that tutu is stretched, with this method.... Both ways are super cute. :)

      Michael's is not my favorite place to buy tutu supplies. I know they sell SOME tulle. Not many colors though, and I'm not sure if they have the headbands, but most craft stores do. If you can't find the crochet headband, check out my Emoji tutorial, I used a ribbon instead. If you live near a Hobby Lobby, that's a better bet, or order supplies online.

    • @ReecieDIY

    would you say you cut about 50,60 strips of tulle

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  8 років тому +1

      Yes. Because I use 3 pieces of tulle at a time, a good way to estimate how many pieces you will need is to count the number of holes in the 1st layer of the crochet band. :)

    how many yards or spools would i need to make four for me and my friend we are 13 by the way

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  8 років тому +2

      +Nanaafua Asamoah Assuming you are in a small Juniors size, you will need roughly 3-4 25 yard rolls per girl. So a total of at least 12 rolls of 25 yard tulle for 4 tutus. If you all are using the same colors, it will be cost effective to buy 3 100 yard rolls from your local craft store or online.

    • @nanaasamoah5467
      @nanaasamoah5467 8 років тому

    • @ReecieDIY
      @ReecieDIY  8 років тому +1

      If you live near a Hobby Lobby, the tulle goes on Sale every other week. If each person gets 1 100 yard roll you'll be sure to have full fluffy tutus and not run out of tulle. On Sale, or with a coupon, you can get 100 yard rolls for just $5.
