Scrappy Tutu

Another amazing idea found on Pinterest! I did mine much simpler than what I found there though.
These are made the same way you would make a tutu with tulle fabric. A bunch of "knots."
I took all my scraps and cut them into strips as long as possible about 1-2 inches wide.
Take a piece of elastic and sew it to fit around whoever you are making it for (or you can use elastic headbands). The elastic will stretch as you are tying the knots onto it so measure your model and then subtract 2-3 inches before sewing the elastic together.
Take the strips of fabric, fold in half and "knot" them around the elastic band. (if you do not know how to do tutu knots look up a video on YouTube, it is much easier to follow a video demo then a written or pictured one). Continue to knot your fabric strips around the entire elastic band.
That's all their is to it! Cute, unique, and fun for the little princess in your life :)
