* The nail polish remover worked!
I took one of the strips of fabric and hand-sewed some big, one inch stitches in it, then I pulled the thread tight to make it ruffle up..The thing is, when I brought this strip upstairs to hold it up to the bed and see how it would look, I quickly realized that this whole ruffle thing was going to be a little too frou frou for Kennedy.
So basically half of all of those millions of strips of fabric that I’d ripped, and ironed, and sewn were totally not needed.. Oh well!You live you learn!.I just took my strips up to the bed, got out the hot glue gun and started sticking them right on to the base fabric that I’d already put up there.. You can see that I really didn’t worry about how straight my fabric strips are.
And now that the skirt is done, you’d never know!Well, YOU know, but only cause I just told you.
I just attached each fabric strip layer with a single line of glue at the top and let the layers hang down over one another.. At the top, I finished it off with a nice wide satin ribbon..
The sneaky thing is, that since I sewed the seams on each fabric strip, it really looks like the whole thing was meticulously sewn together over hours and hours and hours.. Of course,.It happens.. Next, separate the accordion folds on one side of your pompom and get ready to fluff!.
Separate each sheet from the rest of the pack by gently pulling up.Do one sheet at a time until all of them on that one side are done.. Isn’t it looking amazing already??
So much fluffyness!.Flip it over and do the same to the other side.. That’s it!.
