DIY Suspender Skirt

I made a pretty suspender skirt the other day, and I want to share with you how I did it. All you need to do is follow my "how to make a circle skirt" tutorial (here), but STOP before adding the waistband. Instead of adding a waistband like in that tutorial, we are going to do this: - Make the inner circle much larger than your waist - so add a couple of inches to the diameter. Make sure you can easily get it on over your thighs (this was a bit of a problem with the last tutorial). - Then, do this to the inner circle: It's kind of a pain to do because it's a circle, but it can be done. So persevere! Here's some neat instructions for creating a waistband tube thingy and inserting elastic. - Then we need to add suspenders. This just involves cutting out two long strips like this (make sure they will go from your waist up to your shoulders and down again, then add a little bit more): folding in half lengthways, and sewing all the way down the edge of both folded strips like this: then turning these strips/tubes inside out (here's a link to a really good tutorial on that part) and sewing them onto your skirt waistband, wherever you want the straps to sit! wearing: skirt - DIY, t-shirt - forever 21, shoes and bag - vintage Hope you're all having a super nice day!
