Easiest Upcycled Dog Collar Ever!


I started this project 15 minutes ago and I'm already blogging about it...that's how easy it was!!  



INSTRUCTIONS:

Find an old collared shirt and test fit it around your dog's neck. 


Make sure it has the collared button with it (not all collared shirts are created equal).  You can see what I'm talking about in this next picture.

Just cut the collar off the shirt...literally.  Then use Fray Check (a product that stops fabric from fraying) along the bottom edge and voila!!  Brand new dog collar!


He looks handsome, don't ya think?

Who Wore it Better??


Baxter (on the left) or Orange Kitty (on the right)?

YES! I'm on Facebook!

When I first saw this shirt, it put a smile on my face.  Sebastian DOES have his own Facebook...with like quadruple more friends than I have - "Dog" friends of course. 


Seeing this shirt also made me feel a little less weird...obviously if everyone is doing it, it's not so weird after all. 


Sebastian's Facebook friends bark English, Chinese, German, Dutch, and more.  He might not always understand what they are saying, but enjoying cute pictures of each other does not require words.


Are YOU on Facebook?  If so, Sebastian would love to be your friend!


Oh and here is Minnie - a famous local rocking it out on Facebook too.




Woof!  

Canine Crest Chandelier Shade from Anthropologie

This is no ordinary lampshade...


Turn on the light...


I love it!!

 I stumbled across this over the weekend while I was looking for inspiration for my bedroom lampshades that need makeovers.  I love that it's like a surprise image every time you turn the light on.  And of course since it's a dog silhouette, I had to share.

I am most certainly going to try this!!
