Default Cutting tulle for tu-tu's

I'm not sure if this counts as a clever idea, but it definitely made cutting the tulle easier!

I needed 19" lengths of tulle, so I used the sticker from the roll of tulle to attach it to a cookie sheet that was about 20" long.

I then wrapped it around and around the cookie sheet.

Then I cut it off and had mostly even lengths of tulle. It sure beat measuring and cutting each one.

that is a good idea I bought tulle by the roll once and that was enough it took forever to cut and I now buy the tulle by the bolt so I don't have to run out everyday for 5 yards of this and that I cut mine with scissors and a rotary cutter and it takes me no longer than five minutes to cut enough for one tutu and that is doing two layers..anywho have fun making your tutus FASTER now
