Today I found a new online party planning resource . Holiday, birthday, bridal shower, baby shower, weddings, etc. It helps you create invitations or ecards, is customizable, offers list management and guest list management, sends event/birthday reminders, manages potluck sign up lists, links to Twitter and Facebook, helps you decide on a date, links to your e-calendar, links to party planning supplies, manages a to-do list, offers party planning ideas, hints and tips, and is pretty much amazing. In addition, it is free. I'm hooked.
Happenings and thoughts from my life and the lives of my family and friends.

IC's tutu was: Elastic the size for the waist and sewn into a circle or tube. Take tule or netting cut into strips a little more than double the length you want for the tutu. Fold the strip in half over the elastic and tuck both ends of the strip through the loop. Tighten. Go all the way around the tutu. More strips = fuller.
AL's tutu was: Netting double the length you want and a about 1 and a half times the width you want. Stack the netting on top of each other, multiple colors or solid colors work great together. Make a casing with a ribbon that is wider than the elastic you want to use, and long enough to leave you room to tie, down the center of the width of the netting. You can make a casing with the ribbon so you can slide in a peice of elastic that will help tighten the tutu around the waist. Sew the ends of the elastic to the ribbon and netting to secure. -OR- Cut the netting the measurement of the child's waist plus maybe an inch for the width and sew a ribbon down the center.
