DIY: Pebble Flintstone inspired dress

Friday, a couple of weeks ago, I went to a costume party at my school. As usual I couldn't find anything to wear so I went with the easy option, Do It Yourself. My first thought was to go for something easy, like a sailor or something, but then I saw this on youtube:
A Pebble Flinstone costume. At first I thought I would dress like Fred Flintstone, but I couldn't find an orange dress in the right color. But then I found a pretty blue dress, and I thought that I could be Pebble instead. Okay now I'm stopping with the rambling, let's get on with the DIY.




What you'll need:
1) A pretty dress, but one you won't mind ruining.
2) A black marker
3) A pair of scissors 

All you now need to do is draw some triangles on the dress, big, small and weird. It doesn't have to be perfect. (Remember to have something under the dress, also inside, so the marker doesn't get through the dress)

Now just fill in the triangles. 

When you have done that its time for the last step, cutting out the triangles at the bottom. Remember to measure how big you want them to be (you don't want to show things that shouldn't be shown)

And there you have your dress!

I chose to where this with a pair of black tights and I put my hair up in a high bun with a plastic bone.


Much Love!!! xxx
