Someone just ordered a "Strawberry Shortcake" custom tutu. She just said she wanted it to look like Strawberry Shortcake, didn't say anything else other than she's "not picky" lol.

I'm thinking red, pink, white, and green. Would those colors say "Strawberry Shortcake" to you?

If not, what colors?

Thanks!


EDIT: Okay, so I'm not SUPER happy with the way it turned out (color-wise), but the lady who ordered it is IN LOVE with it. She said she's so glad I did more pink than red because all of her daughter's Strawberry Shortcake stuff is pink. I also added pics of the other tutus I completed tonight. *Sigh* Goodnight, all!

My SO took this pic so the bow isn't fixed.. and it's kind of falling off the hanger.. lol but you get the picture. It looks a little lighter here in the pic than it really is.. it's all pink and accented with red, white, and green. I probably could've done a little more red but I'm really glad the lady likes it! Thanks for all your input, and the picture of Strawberry Shortcake - it really helped.


Christmas tutu: (It's white, red, green)

Hot pink zebra:

Just pinks.. a CMer actually ordered this one. :)

All red.. my cousin ordered this one. The bow is not tied right here either. lol

is it JUST a tutu or is it a whole set, like with a shirt n stuff?

i don't even know if i would put the green in it, i might just make it red and pink...but i think it would depend on what she was going to use as a shirt...i would ask her for more info.

I think you should do it with no white and maybe some small black dots like the seeds going down it.

I would say just pink, white and green.  But then again it depends on the shade of green. If its a dark green then no pink but if its a light green then no red.

 It sounds like Strawberry Shortcake to me.  I bet the finished product will be adorable.  I'd love to see pics.

 Do you have any tulle that is multicolored? My best friend makes tutus as well and she has some polka dotted tulle that's a light pink with black spots on it, I'm thinking somethign like that would be a great base under a green or white... if that makes sense.

I would go easy on the white and have mostly pink and then include the red and green evenly.

Aw.. a strawberry shortcake tutu sounds so cute!

Mostly pink. Some red. Minimal green and white.

 I would say pink and red and white with a LITTLE bit of green.  The green on her isn't a big enough porportion to incorporate it as a major player. JMO

this, maybe use thin green satin ribbon as an accent, instead of the tulle? also I saw at AC Moore some cute little strawberry buttons, those would look cute I think they were like $4 for a pack of 10
