TULLE WAND

I made a tulle wand today using the tutorial HERE from sweetnsassygirls.com.

I had some leftover tulle from making my little one's TULLE DRESS for her birthday/halloween, so I decided to do this.  It took about 30 minutes and was fairly simple to make.  

I followed all of the instructions by sweetnsassygirls, except I did not use a wooden dowel for the handle.  Instead, I used a rolled up magazine (cut in half lengthwise to decrease bulk) to make it softer.

Try it!
