Instructions

    • 1

      Measure your dog's neck. Choose a collar that lets you slip two fingers between the dog's neck and the collar. This ensures the collar is neither too tight nor too loose.

      Choose two colors of organza for your project. You might choose red and green for a Christmas party or red and pink for a Valentine's Day celebration.

      Cut your two colors of organaza into strips, approximately 3 to 4 inches, depending on the thickness of your collar. For thicker collars, you might need to cut strips up to 5 inches to cover the collar completely.

      Select one of your organza colors. Secure it to the collar using a basic knot. Allow excess ribbon to stick up from the knot, creating a fluffy organza-look.

      Repeat this process and alternate your two colors or organza, covering the entire collar. Begin at one end of your collar and work your way toward the other end, covering the entire collar with organza knots. Do not cover the buckle or holes.

      Use spray glitter to coat the party collar. This gives it an extra sparkle for the celebration.

      Place the collar on your dog at least once before the party. This gets him used to the feeling of the decorative collar around his neck.
