50 yards of Tulle, the color of your choice (this will yield about 20 tulle poofs)
Rhinestone Stickers (8-12 per tulle poof) or thin wire
Wire Cutters
1 piece of scrap cardboard
Fishing line or ribbon
Scissors
Directions:
1. To make 1 poof, cut the tulle into 2 1/2″ long pieces.
2. Cut your cardboard into a 4″ x 6″ piece and wrap your length of tullewidth-wise around the cardboard until you reach the end. Then pull the tulle away from the cardboard without disturbing the shape.
3. Then take a piece of string or wire and tie it around the bundle of tulleto create a a bow-like shape.
4. Use the scissors and carefully cut each tulle bow end.
5. Proceed to make it into a “poof” by pulling the layers towards the center of the bow. This is where you fluff and shape it until it’s a nice symmetrical round poof. Some additional trimming may be necessary.
6. Randomly squeeze your rhinestones into place until they stick (glue can also be used).
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 until you have the desired amount of tulle bows.
