Dapper Dog Goes to Wedding Shower

While admittedly it seems like so very long ago that I went on my Thanksgiving vacation to Charleston, South Carolina, I just couldn’t let anymore time past before I shared some of my amazingly fun adventures with you.

Engagement Party in Charleston

See not only was I headed to South Carolina for vacation and fun with my family, but I also was invited to my very first wedding shower!

See this summer, my Aunt Laurel & Uncle Don are tying the knot! (and I’m secretly hoping I’m invited to that too! *hint*hint)

Of course long before I even arrived in Charleston I was already planning my wedding shower outfit, because if memory served me correctly….Charleston is home to the southern gentlemen!

Thanks to my friends over at Le Petite Canine I had the perfect collar and bowtie to wear to such an occasion. The Jaq Collar is just what I needed to get spiffy. Now if this doesn’t say southern gentlemen than I don’t know what does!?

With my Wedding Shower outfit on point I was totally ready to welcome everyone to the festivities.

When all the guests arrived we had a blast playing games, opening presents, and stuffing our faces with food.

Well, ok I guess “most” of us did. Apparently us southern gentlemen have to beg for leftovers. I mean seriously, what gives?

I was beginning to wonder if anyone even noticed I was at the party at all!

I shouldn’t have worried though, my stunning good looks never fail, because Aunt Laurel said I was her favorite fur-nephew at the party! (never mind that I’m her ONLY fur-nephew!) Aww, shucks!

By the end of the day I was totally exhausted. Being a southern gentlemen is hard work, but nothing a little cat nap can’t fix!

5 Minute No Sew DIY Easter Bowtie for your Pet

You all know I love a good DIY project, and when it takes less then 5 minutes and requires no sewing (for my mom who is not so handy with a needle and thread) it’s just an added bonus!

So for Easter this year my mom helped me whip up some quick DIY Bowties that I can wear when all my family comes to visit on Sunday. They’re so fun and easy to make that I can’t even decide which one to wear!

What you need:

  • Scissors or Rotary cutter
  • Ruler
  • Fabric
  • Iron (optional)

Step 1: Cut a long rectangular piece of fabric (Mom cut mine 5″ x 19″ to make my small bow tie). The longer and wider you make your rectangle the bigger your bow tie will be. You will also want to cut a thinner strip of fabric, mine was 2″ x 19″, to be used later.

Step 2: Using your large rectangular piece of fabric fold in the edges. You can use an iron to crease the folds if need be.

Step 3: Next fold your ends towards the center so that they just overlap where the center mark would be.

Step 4: Fold the entire piece of fabric in half.

Step 5: With the front of your bowtie facing you, crease it into 3 even pleats. Then place a clothespin on it to hold it in place while you move to the next step.

Dapper Doxie

Sometimes a fellow just needs to get gussied up.

So the other day at work, I used my new bowtie I got for Christmas from Silly Buddy to practice my dashing good looks for everyone.

Disclosure – I was not paid or perked by Silly Buddy in any way. I just simply think their collars and bowties are super duper awesome!
