Retro TUTU


I just LOVE this tutu. The colors are so vibrant. It's girly, yet funky. I call it the "Funky Retro Birthday Princess Tutu."

My wonderful husband!

Since I have a torn muscle in my side, my wonderful husband has been kind enough to do some housekeeping today! He did the dishes and even cleaned all the counters! Then...sit down ladies...he MOPPED the floor! The secret is out. He really CAN clean. He's in trouble now! Just kidding, of course. He knows I have to stay away from housework if my side is going to heal. He wants me to get better. I think it's even more important to him than ever, now that he knows what it's like to clean the kitchen! :-)

The girls want mommy to get better too. I keep telling my 3-yr-old that I can't pick her up. I try explaining it to her, but I know it's hard for a little one to grasp the idea that mommy can't lift her little darlings.

My wonderful husband has also been cutting my tulle strips for my tutus. He's developed an invention to make it easier (go hubby!), and he's good at it! Thank God for my husband!

Catching up

I've been trying to catch up my orders in hopes of coming up with a new design for a tutu gown. I'm anxious to see how it turns out, as I have a few great ideas!

Making tutus is my passion!

Welcome to my new blog! I design and create custom boutique tutus and tutu dresses for infants, toddlers, and little girls. They are perfect for birthdays, pageants, dance recitals, special photo sessions, dress-up, weddings, and more! I create the tutus in my smoke-free home studio. Lots of work goes into each one. Each tutu has yards and yards of soft, high-quality tulle. All pieces are cut by hand and then sewn (not tied, so no twisting) on to a wide elastic waistband. A boutique label is sewn into every tutu. Every little girl should have at least one tutu!
