How to Make Ponytail Tutus

Make ponytail tutus in any color.

A ponytail holder is a handy accessory to have in a pinch. On a hot day or during busy play, it is convenient to pull hair back from your daughter's face and neck. Match her ponytail holder with her play or dress clothes. Dress up a holder with some fabric and create a ponytail tutu. This kind of accessory is light, airy and looks great on little girls. It is a good hair tool to have on hand in a purse or backpack. Use a single fabric for each holder or mix up the colors for a festive look.

Things You'll Need

• Elastic ponytail holder
• 1 yard of tulle
• Sharp scissors

Instructions

1. Lay the tulle on a flat surface. Smooth the wrinkles from the tulle.

2. Cut two-inch wide strips from the tulle. The strips should each be 4 inches long. Cut out 20 strips from the tulle.

3. Slide the ponytail holder over one strip of the tulle. Center the tulle over the ponytail holder. Tie the tulle in a knot close to the ponytail holder. Pull the knot tight. Repeat this step until all the strips have been tied around the entire ponytail holder.

4. Trim the edges of the tulle strips with the scissors. Even up the lengths for a more uniform look. Leave the tulle in varying lengths for more poof.

Tips & Warnings

• Rotate two different color strips to the ponytail holder for pretty look.
