If you can't find your size (for example DD or bigger, or extremely small or in between) then it's definitely beneficial to make your own. At Target the strapless cups are normally $7-11. The bra itself does not have to be sturdy, because you will reinforce it. You just ned to make sure it's not the satin type lingerie. If you lay it down, the cups should still be sticking up, that's all.
Fitting can be a bit complex, and having someone with experience definitely helps, but it is doable alone.
Once you have a bra that is just perfect, make sure you keep it. I still have my very first gold bra/belt that my teacher helped me make (oh, almost 5 years ago) and it fits so well. I don't wear it much because I'm not into that much fringe anymore, but it fits like a dream.
The cups are extremely tilted towards to inside and that's what makes it look and feel great. After a long while I started to mirror the look with the new bras I made and it was such a big difference. Until then I was wondering why the bras weren't perfect. When I lined them up next to each other I saw that I have to tilt them muchmore and that's what gves it the cleavage and the comfort.
