Diy fairy skirt

Cora just turned five, and what better way to ring in this big and exciting year than with a Fairy Princess Spa Party?

With Halloween around the corner I wanted to post a couple easy suggestions of things you can make that will wow the people around you, without taking a lot of your time. One of the Easiest is this fairy skirt I created last month. Start by measuring your waist, then add a couple inches to make room for attaching. Then cut a 10 inch strip to that waist width. Pin the good sides on the fabric together and sew a long tube. When you are done turn the tube inside out and hem in the raw edges on the two ends. Attach either velcro or snap buttons on each end so that it will connect together.

Basic fairy skirt tutorial I made a basic fairy skirt to wear to a theme party about three years ago and enjoyed wearing it so much that I wished I had made one sooner instead of waiting for a occasion to wear one. Every day should be a fairy skirt day! I would like to share the technique I used. You will need at least two layers of fabric cut into squares, roughly one metre squared will give you a length approximately to the knee on an adult. You can make the squares larger or smaller depending on how long you want the skirt to be and how wide your fabric is. You can use whatever type of fabric you want,but I would recommend using something non-see through on the bottom. Hip measurement plus ease divided by 6. Ok, back up a bit. Before you lay your squares out, fold each one in half, then in half again to find the centre. You can then use the dot from the compass in the middle of your template to line up with the corner that is the centre of the square and cut through four layers, using a quarter of the template. Do this for each layer. If you are very brave, or have a fancy cutting tool you could do all the layers together. Make a casing for elastic by cutting a strip of fabric as long as the circumference of the circle plus 2cm seam allowance, approx 6cm wide, and stitch together. Cut elastic to fit waist measurement and join up, fold casing in half right sides out and attach to skirt with elastic inside. This can be tricky, you can attach casing first if you want, leaving an opening for elastic and then thread the elastic through.

When finished, tie a knot in the last tulle loop on each end.

These Ragtag Fairy Skirts are so easy to make, I almost feel silly writing a post on them. They are so cute though!!! Like all my projects that involve fabric, my suggestion to you is to check out the secondhand stores in your area first. First cut the fabric into strips, about inches wide and inches long. Tie on each piece of fabric as pictured. First, fold the fabric in half. Then, put the folded loop under the elastic. Flip the ends of the fabric up and over the elastic and through the loop of folded fabric.

With about two small rolls of tulle and one large roll, you can make about three skirts. Give the skirts to the girls and let them play, pretend, and have fun! The squares should overlap a bit to help reduce gaps in the skirt. My Finished skirt, A little wrinkly but still looking good. Wrap tulle around your arm from hand to elbow about 20 times and cut the loop at your hand, so that you have 10 pieces. You can make the squares larger or smaller depending on how long you want the skirt to be and how wide your fabric is. The how-to is very simple, and you can see it on the video at the end of the post below. Many times.

I slyly peek around the rough-barked tree, delightedly, with eyes a-twinkle, to witness the fairies as they flit and flutter, playfully flirting with the flowers, and making merry with the butterflies.

Give the skirts to the girls and let them play, pretend, and have fun! I gonna need those for my angel costume for New Year party. Share this: Twitter Facebook.

For months, my tiny one has been talking about this event and planning and changing and adjusting and planning and adjusting and planning some more—so much so that I am just a wee bit sad that the party has come and gone. Attach either velcro or snap buttons on each end so that it will connect together. Once there are squares covering the entire band you can try it on and see how it looks. Start by measuring your waist, then add a couple inches to make room for attaching. Many thanks! Loading Comments
