Great video. Thanks for showing us. Lovely results.

Your outfits r always so cute! Thanks for sharing your techniques for making tutus.

[@cordeliabrimage1897]

love your stuff!!!! Thanks for sharing the cons to selling your items. Glad to see you're continuing to do videos.

[@sonyaLparks]

Enjoy your videos. My first time seeing you. My Etsy shop will be opening soon. Much success in all you do

[@shanellfaust1578]

You are so amazing. This is my second video and idk why I didn't hit subscribe the first time. Think I was so mesmerized. I think u just turned me on to a new craft that I been wanting to do forever (and actually bought stuff on several occasions too. Smh. Showing my girls too. I'll even be content if they do it. Thank u so much! The quality of your work is like what I stand on and now I probably won't be able to look at other ppl's work.

Lindaaaa. Precisava fazer pra uma cliente de 5 Anos. Estava sem inspiração. Agora já me animei

I like this method much better than numerous pieces to work on separately. Good job!

[@elizabethstratton6173]

Love the video! Thanks for the tips for selling. Hopefully, I can get my business going soon. I have those same scissors. Have a blessed day!

[@tinaeid3540]

I am so happy with Etsy! I got sales pretty instantly. Facebook no’s a Shan I think. I spent in advertising too. Not one sell! I am totally okay with the sharing pot with Etsy. Get your name out there keep up with videos and create a following. You won’t need Etsy. Open Shopify and transition! Keep up the hard work! Loved your input

[@poosysylviad2212]

Thanks for your time. Very helpful

[@AquaBloomStudio]

Gosh how did I miss your video. I forgot to put on the bell notifications. Just did that. I love watching you work. So motivational.

It’s unfortunate how some people can be not even thinking about how a lot of small business owners are just one person making all the orders, but girl I wish you all the success in your business I pray that you continue to go after it all New subbie

Very nice tutu tutorial, however, the music was distracting. Beautiful tutu!

[@debraconness6712]

I don't like Marketplace on Facebook. But I am trying Facebook/Shopify. I agree, too weird meeting someone somewhere or having them come to your house. I have a shop on Etsy too. I prefer to ship, even if they just live miles away. Better safe than sorry.

[@visifoketi1689]

Thank you for your honest explanation about your experiences, I really appreciate that. I am still new and I am listing something on fb but I was thinking about giving out my address is not safe so I don't know what to do yet. All the best with your work and business and thanks for sharing making tutus. There are beautiful. I will be making one soon.

[@crocheteethings2135]

Beautiful!❤ what size do you cut the elastic for each size?

[@natashadiaz5791]

Thank you so much for this! I’m about to open my Etsy shop and I was gonna try and sell thru the fb marketplace, but now I don’t think that’s such a good idea. Thank you for sharing your experiences! That’s crazy!

[@DIYDiaz]

I meant to comment from my DIY page, but I did accidentally from my personal page lol oops

[@NubianLockedPrincess]

Thank you so much! This is the only tutu video that made sense! I have been sewing for years, but never made a tutu! I’am a perfectionist, so this video is how I Would have cut tulle! Unfortunately the ribbon that I’am using is only 3 yards a roll, so I will have to see them together before I start! Thanks again!

[@shameka8666]

I agree it’s very scary and you have to be careful. I don’t meet and refer people to my Etsy store as well. Good video.

[@anaveragecrafter4494]

Hello! Love your video. Which sewing machine is in this video? I didn’t see it in the description. Thank you. ☺️☺️

[@CachisCustoms]

Thank you 💕 It is a Singer Fashion Mate

[@barbarak413]

Try using a 60mm rotary cutter than the current 45mm you have. It helps when cutting a lot of layers at a time.

[@CachisCustoms]

Thanks !

[@chansofancy]

Can u please show a closer look of how u do the bow for the tutu? The last part was cut out when u wrapped the ribbon around to finish it off.

[@rhondacarson3183]

Beautiful work

[@phinao4182]

Hello great work I love it. Please how did you stitch the both ends together?

[@CachisCustoms]

Just overlap and stitch going up and down

[@jewelbrown1781]

How did you get a second row of ribbon?

[@lifeorsomething134]

You put ribbon on both ends of the tulle. Then fold it in half so the ends of tulle with the ribbon is together. You see an inch down from the fold to insert your elastic. Although you have one piece of tulle, your folding it in half to create two layers

[@niqa2000]

Love the video.im waiting on my bulk of tulle to try this. I do the regular tutus. Do I have to use satin ribbon. I have some ribbon other ribbon that’s not silky like the satin one.

[@CachisCustoms]

No you can use almost any ribbon but make sure it’s not so stiff or it won’t loop well

[@cottageelegance]

Just watched your video! You are amazing can’t wait to see you stitch on that Ricoma! Where are you putting it? Are you putting it in your garage?

[@CachisCustoms]

Yes my garage ! I have no choice ☹️

[@rosajimenez6481]

Love it. Casandra can you post the sizes I’m a little confused so if you need 8 yards why you cut 14 yards. Am I suppose to double for each size.

[@CachisCustoms]

I cut 8 yards And 14” long so when you fold it it is a 7” tutu

[@tinaeid3540]

Also, I’m using your measurements for tutus!

[@boostank1000]

Hi love this video. What setting do you use on your machine when making ribbon tutus?

[@CachisCustoms]

Stitch length is 3 and tension 2

[@Miss-Laine]

Hello. don't understand lol Did you sew both pieces of tule together? if yes, Is that what you usually do? thanks

[@CachisCustoms]

If you are doing 2 ribbons You sew one to one side and the other to the other side of the tulle Then you fold it over

[@virisworld7387]

We’re do you order your vynal at

[@CachisCustoms]

Amazon or 651vinyl.com

[@RH-hi2fl]

Do you know what size ill need for my 11 year old daughter she's 5'1

[@CachisCustoms]

You will have to measure her, measure her waist and how long you want it, if you want the tutu 10” long then cut your tulle at 18” then when you add the 2 ribbons you will get 10” tutu

[@bowsovertherainbow]

I'm not doing Facebook selling too, its just a mess with people being cheap and butt holes. I just send them the same info of this is an ad and you need to place an order on etsy

[@tierrabriggs7581]

After you cut the tulle you folded the pieces in half? And then started sewing the ribbon

[@CachisCustoms]

No I sew the ribbon first

[@amandasavedra8296]

Can you please tell me what you do to make your tutus like so stuff and the curls looks so perfect mines are hanging 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@CachisCustoms]

Where do you get your tulle ?

[@amandasavedra8296]

BB Craft, do you use wire in your ribbon to make the curls so perfect or it’s just regular ribbon? I was seeing how you were arranging the ribbon and they were already so curly on the way mines looks if I were to mess around with them they will just be flat with a little bit of curl if that makes sense

[@nelsonabella5412]

How do you know what measurement to cut the elastic to?

I want to make this for my little girl, she wears 5T, I want to know why you cut the tutu into half after you cut the edges off? what measurement did you use to cut it into two?

[@AquaBloomStudio]

Casandra do not use marketplace for your handmade business. Marketplace I see it as just getting second hand stuff. I’m glad you went with Etsy as it’s easier for the customers and you and your safety. Yes that guy that you talk about is creepy. Your work is gorgeous and you deserve $ for your hard work. Do not undercut yourself. I know I haven’t even start out yet but I have done craft fair in the past and I don’t like it. You go into those craft fair not knowing the audience that’s coming in to shop and if the product you are selling is for those audience. I did very poorly and I gave up. But this time I took a business writing class and I am working on getting all my plans and financial straight before I start selling so I can keep up with my bookkeeping. Before I don’t know nothing and my bookkeeping was poor and missing a lot of crucial information. I know nothing about business. But taking my business writing class and working on my plans help me understand a lot about the business side.

Follow your instincts.. there are a lot of weirdos out there

[@lindapuente8629]

I was dumb enough to give my addres out last week. This guy wanted uniforms so he gave me all the info and gave him a price. He accepted and then asked for the address to see if it was nearby to do a pick up or if it needed to be shipped. So I gave him my address and he blocked me afterwards. So idk maybe he didn't want the order anymore maybe he just wanted to find out prices or idk but it was really weird !

[@olajokesjourney]

Quick question, how do you recieve payments from people who ordererd from you then or if you had orders from people you would drop off too, I know you said you don't do it anymore on Facebook.

[@CachisCustoms]

PayPal, cash app, zelle, there’s tons of apps , I preferred Cash App I still have my fb page , just don’t take orders on there anymore, but it’s good to have a page where people can feel more confident buying from you and they can see reviews.
