Why didn’t I think of this a long time ago? Elvis is always destroying his store-bought collars, which are made with some really horrible synthetic fabric that shreds like crazy when he scratches his neck. I was going to pick up another collar at the pet shop, but this morning I decided instead to make a new collar with a couple of ribbon scraps. It was so easy — just sew the two pieces of ribbon together, and stitch it all back together using the recycled hardware from the old collar. Elvis didn’t really want to show it off (he is a completely uncooperative subject), but I finally managed to get a photo with his head up so you can see the collar. I bet everybody makes these, and I am the last person to figure it out.
Elvis looks mighty handsome there… and I’m sure his new collar feels much better than the old one! Great job!
I echo that he is totally handsome – just as well my two girl cats are outside at the moment otherwise they would be head over heels!
What a good idea! He does look very handsome!
Beautiful collar – and Elvis is SO handsome!
what a handsome boy! btw – I loved your idea for the blog doe-c-dog 🙂 sadly I barely have time to keep up with the one I have now…{but I’m seriously considering creating a calendar for 2012, it would be using the shots I’ve already taken but I thought it would be a fun xmas gift for family & friends as well as any readers who might be interested.}
