DIY: A Dapper Bowtie

Is there anything cuter than a dachshund?! How about a dachshund wearing a bowtie? Hi, I'm Jess! I wrote this blog because I'm crazy about dachshunds! You can follow my dogs at @teenie_weenies on Instagram! It is no secret that I am obsessed with my two weenies; And I can testify first hand, that you cannot just have one! With their silly personality, you literally cannot help yourself but to dress them up at one point in their life. As their human and ‘pawrent’ it is your obligation to show off their cuteness and share the joy they bring with the world…with whatever accessories necessary.

Let’s be honest, dog clothes and accessories can get very expensive. Yes, they might not be considered necessities, however, they are so fun… you cannot resist. With that being said, I thought I would take the time to share an inexpensive way to spruce up your pup’s wardrobe that is fun and easy!
This Do It Yourself tutorial will show you how to make your pup the most dapper gentleman around town!
Things You Will Need
If you don’t have the items listed above, you can take a trip to your local fabric store. My store of choice is Joanne Fabric and Craft Store – they have endless choices and very inexpensive sample squares that are perfect for this project.
