So here she is, my first dressed up black cat, CinderBella.
As you have probably figured out by now, I have a thing for these big, poofy tutu dresses! They are fun to make, not hard, but time consuming, and they really dress up a doll instantly. This one is made from glittered orange tulle.
I love how full and pretty it is from the side view. (Yes, there is a tail under all that tulle. You just can't see it very well in the pictures.)
For the bodice of her dress, I decided to just wrap her body with the tulle and tie a big bow on the front. I'm really happy with how it looks. I made a hat from paper and wrapped it in more tulle to match. A few glittered bats soaring on black wire, and CinderBella is complete. I am really happy with how she turned out, and I'm sure there will be more dressed up cats to come this fall.
I'm off to the studio. Have a great day!
