My new Hobby




Well, I did it..I made my 1st Tutu. (you know, those little things ballerina's wear...just for those of you that might not know what i'm talking about lol). Mya is in ballet and I paid $20 for this ADORABLE tutu..it was SO cute...I got to thinking that maybe i could possibly make them so she could have one in every color...then I thought, hey, i could make them and sell them if I enjoy making them. We could definetly use the money and its something I can do. So I bought some Tulle and all the supplies. And last night I made one! i was so excited...and so was Mya. I learned along the way and know a few things I'm going to do next time to make it easier to make and make it look better...but I was still pleased with my first tutu. I mean, I've never made one before. I also have all differnt ideas floating around in my brain on how to emblesh them a little and add a little "pizazz" to them. So anyways...here is the finished product. i'll eventually be making a website and start selling them. But I think i'll make a few more for practice before i do that. I'm praying that it's something works and makes us some money. It's fun and I enjoy it too!

SO CUTE!!!! i want to buy one from you for Zoey's dedication!!! i've been wanting to get her a tutu so badly. check out www.etsy.com - it's a website where people can sell homemade things. there is a lady in my mom's group that does it and is pretty successful.
