DIY: To-Go or Portable Mesh Long Skirt

My inspiration for this mesh skirt ...

(D.I.Y) How to make this To-Go Long Mesh Skirt!

Lately, I've been obsessed with see-thru (or this mesh) fabric. So I decided to make something out of it. Instead of sewing this to one of my skirts, I made a "portable" or "to-go" one. Because ...  if I do mess up (on the sewing), I don't have to throw any of my skirts away! And two, I can apply this "to-go mesh skirt" to any of my skirts! Oh how convince :]  YAYAY! Let's begin the tutorial

Material:

1. 2 or 3 Yards of Mesh fabric (2.99 per yard)
2.  Candles + Matches
3. Threads + Needles
4. Elastic Band
5. Lint Roller 
6. Scissors 
7. Iron 

Step #1: Cut the edges and use the lint roller to clean up the mess

Step # 2: I know this is weird, but I like to flame my edges! When melted, the plastic will stick the edges together. Just gently and quickly pass the edges through the fire for 1-2 seconds.

Step #3: Iron to create folds

Step #4: Now, sew the folds together

Step #5: For the waist, sew a fold that is big enough for the elastic to go through. Put the elastic band through the fold, and connect the two ends together.

Finished! My portable/ To-go mesh skirt
