How To Make Cheap Flower Girl Dresses

By Maryanne Goff


If one is in charge of planning for the people who will be part of a wedding, then he definitely has to be in charge of everything involving those people as well. In the case of flower girls, the one in charge of them must also be the one who will come up with the clothing for these little girls. Now if one does not want to spend too much money, then it is actually possible to make some cheap flower girl dresses.

Before even planning to do anything about the flower girls, one must always seek the approval of both the groom and bride first to see if the plans are to their liking or not. Now it is also important for one to take note of the theme of the wedding. He must always make sure that the clothing of all participants follow the particular theme.

Once the theme has been decided, then one must now get the sizes of all the flower girls. It is important to know the exact measurements of all of the girls simply because one must make sure that the clothing perfectly fits the participants. Of course if one cannot get the exact measurements, then it is better to make it a little bit loose.

After that, one should now concentrate on getting a good pattern so that he will be able to have a reference or a guide. Now the pattern is a very important part of the process because without it, one will not know where to be able to cut up the fabric later on. One may buy a pattern from a hobby store or just simply get one from the internet.

The next step would be to select the right fabric for the dress. Of course the type of fabric that is commonly used for this kind of clothing would be the lacy ones that is quite like that of the bride. Of course one may opt to use silk as it is a material that is very nice to look at because of its natural shine.

After the fabric has been decided, then one should now use the pattern to cut the pieces of fabric. In this stage, the pattern will be extremely important because without it, one will have a hard time getting the exact shape and size of the pieces of clothing. So always make sure to meticulously follow the pattern.

Once that is done, then the last part would be to sew the dress up. Now it is recommended that one use a sewing machine to be able to do this because it is hard to do it manually. In this stage, one may now add some accessories to the dress like ribbons, laces, zippers and buttons.

So as one can see, it is actually not that hard to make cheap flower girl dresses. Not only is it quite simple to make, but it is also much cheaper as compared to buying one in the store. Of course one should only do this if he enjoys this kind of thing.
