Daphne models her new handmade collars!

I made Daphne some dog collars. They're made from hemp cord.

Here's the first one I made - it's in the style of a human necklace, with a little charm on it.

and here's the second one. I used the snap from an old collar of hers.

and here's the newest one - I bought big hemp, and made a spiral one. This one I made after I got my new cool book on hemp jewelry

Daphne isn't too fond of the camera, that's why she doesn't look so happy.

They're fun to make. I'm not sure how they'd hold up for walks on leash though - so far they've held up. I'll have to do some tests.

Oh, and here's some pics of all of them:

Very nice!!! Great handiwork! I especially love the spiral one! And Daphne, don't be shy! You're such a pretty doggie model:)

Those are great collars! You do very nice work. I'm with tatsxxx11, I love the spiral one too:)

Very nice!!! :D

Those are really neat! I have tons of hemp cord here but never thought to make doggie collars out of it LOL!

Cute!

I've always been meaning to pick up some hemp to work with.

Is it hard to learn to do stuff like that?

very cute! nice job, i wish i was that creative so i could give jesse a new collar that fits.
--hers is made for a goldie, just adjusted to the smallest setting--

Verrry nice!! They are very cool, never thought of that. I have hemp, but its the skinny kind so it would never work.

Kay - its extremely easy once you catch on, you'd be a pro in no time.

Wow, you are really handy with hemp rope! They look great.

P.S. You siggy with Daphne always cracks me up :D

I used to do a lot of hempwork, but never thought of making dog collars... Those are awesome! :)
