Tulle Maxi Skirt DIY

I wish I had come up with this! It could be used for so many occasions… Love it!

Sometimes in my dreams I am a lady of the King’s court. Which King? Any King. I just want to wear the dresses and bodices, dance, drink and be merry. I may watch far too much of The Tutors. However my inner Lady of the Court was awoken when I stumbled on this lovely gem on Etsy.

For some a $400 skirt, given the right occasion is a great deal; maybe their wedding. However for me that is a terrible deal so I busted out some tulle (30 yards to be exact) and got to reproducing this piece. My skirt was not quite as full but it was only $30.

Side note: I don’t do well with patterns.

You will need:

  • Tulle: The more you buy the fuller your skirt will be. I used 30 yards; I am 5’9 and wear a size 8 or 10.
  • Black stretchy fabric: Optional…
