Review on Bulk Berwick Offray Black Sparkle Tulle, 6'' W, 25 Yards - Affordable and Glamorous Tulle for Every Occasion by Heather Shaw

Revainrating 5 out of 5

A very beautiful fabric, indispensable for every dress.

Perfect for making a Wonder Woman costume for my little one. This was the first time I sewed a seamless dress or any other type of dress. Very beautiful shiny blue tulle. It shimmered and shone. It wasn't as soft and flexible as the regular non-shiny one, but as far as I can tell that's to be expected. A little warning, lots of glitter on the floor, me and my booth. I've never worked with glitter tulle so I don't have anything quite like it, but at the same time I have a lot of experience with glitter decor, so I have this kind of "sparkly rain" fully expected, so I worked on a hard, easy-to-clean tulle surface and had no issues with cleaning. For reference, I used 2 rolls of tulle for my 1 1/2 year old to make this dress. I also measured the strips of tulle at 9 inches each and trimmed them to allow for room to grow to the length of the dress and this also gives a bit more versatility in sizing as I leave her "fancy" dresses for my photos. So the size range of this dress is from 1 to 3 years (1 year wear it as a long dress and 3 years wear it as a short tutu, of course depending on the size of the child). If you plan to use it for a dress, you can get away with using a regular roller for the bottom layer and glitter for the top layer. I was on a tight schedule so I didn't want to mess around with making sure the shades of blue matched etc. . .
