Not so Crafty!!


These little tulle skirts are everywhere. This was my attempt at making one. Yes it looks like it came out but the truth is it didn't. When I was at the fabric store I asked how much they thought I would need (note to self next time by extra fabric) to make a tulle skirt. When I started making it I thought it looked long so I cut some off. As it went along I started running out of tulle. I only had enough to make the front. Good thing that's all that shows up in the picture. Yes, I could have ran back out to the store to get more tulle but decided not to. Why because this inexpensive skirt has cost me over $80 so far. How's that? Will let me tell you. The fabric store is a little ways, so you have the gas. When I was in the store I thought I needed other stuff. Like patterns (that were for 99 cents) that I don't know what to do with. Material that in my little head I think I'm going to make wonderful things with. Walking out of the store with more than the tulle in my hand. Now I'm going to waste another $10 on the tulle skirt. Except this time I'm staying out of the fabric store and doing what I should have done in the first place. I'm just going to buy one at $10 and saving myself the headache, time and money. So much for me trying to be crafty!!!!
