Coolest Homemade Belle Costume for a Woman

Each year we do a group theme for Trunk Or Treat at my friend’s Day Care center. This year our theme was Disney Princesses. I decided to go as Belle. After looking for a ready made costume for a few weeks I decided to make my own Homemade Homemade Belle Costume. I searched through second hand stores and yard sales for a dress. I ended up finding a wedding dress with tucks in it and my imagination went wild.

First I dyed the dress yellow. Then, using about 10 yards of golden yellow tulle, I attached two layers of scallops to the dress with safety pins and about 3 yards to the shoulders of the dress. I bought some silk roses and pinned them to the scallops. Aside from dying and dryind time the whole dress took about an hour to make. Because it was all pinned on, it can be taken apart and reused for something else.
