Making a clown frill is a fun and easy project! Begin by choosing bright, colorful fabric or tulle. Measure the length around the neck and multiply it by 2 or 3 for fullness. Cut the fabric into strips of desired width, generally about 8-10 inches for a dramatic effect. Sew or utilize fabric glue along one long edge onto a piece of elastic that fits snugly around the neck, gathering the fabric as you go to create ruffles. Secure the ends of the elastic together. For an extra touch, add sequins or pompoms.
