Instructions:

1. Gather fabric scraps or remnants from your local fabric store. Use your dog’s collar to measure how much fabric you will need to wrap around it.

If your collar have a buckle, be sure you leave enough room so that you don’t cover the buckle holes.

2. Wrap your fabric around the collar so that ends overlap one another. this part is very important, you don’t want to get any hot glue on your collar!

Trim excess fabric. Place a thin line of hot glue between the two overlapping layers and press down gently to bond. Once your sleeve is glued it should look just like a sleeve/tube, and it should easily slide on and off of your collar.

3. Next is the fun part! If you want to add a bit of glam to your sleeve, try adding your choice of ribbon or trim as a garnish. Just secure with a bit of hot glue and let set to dry.

We hope your pup loves their fancy new DIY dog collar sleeves!

    Any idea where I can find that black and white tribal print fabric? I have been desperately searching for a tribal/aztec/geometric black and white dog collar (that’s 1.5″ wide) and cannot for the life of me find one!

  2. Ann says:

    I would like to make generic sleeves to fit the different sizes of collars. Any suggestions?
