Today I made tutus for my nieces. It was soooo easy! You need elastic and 2 spools of tulle. The elastic I had was 1/2 inch. I cut it into 20" sections to fit their waists. I found the tulle in the fabric or wedding section of Hobby Lobby. The tulle is usually 4.99 per roll, but it was on sale for $1.50! I cut the tulle into strips that were 4 feet long. Then I doubled up the tulle and doubled again, then slip-knot it around the elastic. It took me 24 pieces of the tulle in order to go around the entire skirt. I secured the elastic ends with thread and voila! Cute dress up tutu! You could add flower embellishments, etc. I found really easy directions on youtube.
