Flashback Fanny Pack!!!

Oh yes.  Oh yes we did!!!

As part of the anti-fashion movement and trend, I present to you:

Puppy fanny packs.

We went for the retro 80's look since I am on a neon craze over here.  What do you think?  Actually, don't answer that.  HA!

You KNOW this is cute!!!

This is how huge the fanny pack is people!!!  (And to think this photo is from 2009...we are so behind on trend)

And well...had to share this one:

This fanny pack is so so awesome, but I can't take the credit for it.  I got the pattern from this tutorial:

Bunny Ears!

Happy Easter from Sebastian and his NEW friend Brighette!!

Sebastian's Bunny Ear Tutorial 

(both small and big dogs!!!):

Materials:

Chenille stems, fabri-tac glue, super cute fabric, fur, and a camera!

Take one stem (or two for big dogs) and wrap it around dog's head.  It should be snug.  Twist it in place and make sure the wires are facing away from your dog at all times! 

Fold two stems in half for the ears (make longer for bigger dogs by twisting two stems together and then folding in half).

Then twist the ends around the head piece and cut off any extra wire.

Trace the ears on the main peace of fabric and add a quarter inch all the way around (including the bottom) to allow a 1/4 inch inseam.

Cut out and trace two more pieces.  You'll need a total of 4 pieces to cover the front and back.  Then sew  them right sides together leaving the bottoms open.

Slip them onto each bunny ear and then adjust stems inside to your liking.

 Glue the bottom of the fabric ear to the head piece to hold it in place.  Lightly glue on a small piece of fabric in the middle of each ear (see white portion below). 

Then hide all the unattractive sightings by gluing a strip of fur on top!

Just like this:

Here is Sebastian's big sister taking a break from her rawhide to model the finished product!

She loves it!!!

Does anything say "Happy Easter" more than a good pair of bunny ears?


Happy Easter everypawdy!!!!

XOXOXOXO,

Sebastian's Hair Confessions

I'm sure all dogs have their own unique hairstyles.

Sebastian has naturally crimped and extra long hairs right by his ears.  Just like baby curls - I too have a hard time cutting Sebastian's hair.  In fact, I refuse to cut it!

He also has cute feet hair (I would imagine this next picture is a big no-no to dog groomers?).

Sebastian's grandma calls them "Dr. Seuss feet."

What is YOUR hairstyle?  Sebastian and I would love to hear about it!

Or maybe you're a dog groomer about to have a heart attack?  We'd love to hear your thoughts too!

xoxoxoxo,
