Okay, maybe evolution is too dramatic of a word for the change I made to my crinoline, but it sounds so cool!

Remember when I showed you all my crinoline? Well, after I looked at some pictures, I decided I wanted to spice thing up a little bit, like this:

But dyeing it was not really an option for me, because even though I love the way it looks, I didn’t want everything to be purple; I wanted white and purple. But re-doing the crinoline was not an option to achieve my desired look, so I opted for ADDING layers, instead!

Yes! I made it PUFFIER!

I know I’m possibly going to end up looking like a marshmallow, but I’ll take the chance - I have a feeling it will end up looking cool - or else I’ll always be remembered as the marshmallow bride with the white and  purple details. (I’m crossing my fingers big time at this moment that that doesn’t happen!)

So, I ran to my “fabric supplies heaven” and got 40 feet of purple tulle at $9.60. Oh, yes! (I told you, this fabric place is heaven!) Once home, I cut long pieces matching  height of my white layers and sewed them together.

{ Mom Poodle is not really good at taking pictures LOL - she caught me with my eyes closed!
And she said it was a perfect picture! }

{ I had tulle everywhere, so by the time I started sewing, my baby Poodle Curly thought the crinoline was a tent for him to play in }

I’m much happier now because I can surprise everyone with a little bit of color under my dress. I just can’t get away from color, especially purple! I love it so much!

Are you attempting to add color to your dress? if so, what’s your plan?
