Tulle skirt with exposed elastic

Feel like a princess again with this DIY tulle skirt. You can make it in any size and in any length. The longer the tulle skirt, the more formal the look.

You can make it long or short, depending on your preference.

Easy gathered skirt

Pleats look lovely on a dress but they’re a bit bothersome to make. Gathering the fabric produces a similar look without the hassle of ironing and sewing the pleats. This midi length gathered skirt doesn’t just look good, it’s also easy to make.
