Collar made from a bandana (for a human)

Apr 23, 2006 0 Replies

Saw one in a thrift yesterday. They wanted $3. I have several bandanas that would lend themselves well to this treatment...any leads on a pattern?



It looked like the bandana was cut diagonally, then fabric removed for a head-hole and to provide shaping. Top-stitched to a lining that added body, then 2" fringe applied around the edges. (This was a western, square dancey looking type of deal, in case that impression had escaped your notice.) Decorated with a couple of conchos and pony beads strung in a sort of necklace pinned to the front. Displayed on a plain T-shirt. (I could travel to a gig looking normal, throw on my bandana collar, then take it off to go home.)



Yep, I could cut up a plastic bag and work on it, but if there's a Wild Ginger or another option existing...



And googling brought up all kinds of pet decorations!



TIA
