Tutorial: Super Simple Elastic Waist Skirt

I made this super cute (admittedly wrinkled in this photo) skirt using this tutorial from Sweet Verbena. She has amazing tutorials! It was really easy! I think the hardest part was picking out the material ;) Here's a close up of the skirt:

It has a gathered elastic waistband. You can either wear it alone or with a belt, like I did. I think it looks better with a belt, but that's up to you. I have been on a crazy belt kick lately. Especially this one, I wear it with everything. 

I'm almost done with another project (which I hope to finish tonight!), so I'll put that up tonight or tomorrow. I used another tutorial from Sweet Verbena (a few of my ideas will come from there, they're just too cute not too!), but I took my own photos along the way so I'll post some basic instructions and my variations along with a link to her original post.

Until then!
