Self-Tie Bandanas for Small Dogs

I handmade these charming self‑tie bandanas for small dogs, creating each one in Brighton with care and attention. I use repurposed clothing for every piece, giving beautiful fabrics a second life and ensuring no two bandanas ever look the same. Because they tie on, you can adjust them easily to give your dog a secure, comfortable fit.

Bandana A uses a turquoise floral cotton fabric, and I’ve added a light scattering of hot‑fixed crystals that catch the light with a gentle sparkle.

Bandana B features a bold black floral cotton print. I stitched elegant white embroidered butterflies onto the fabric to give it a classic look with a playful twist.

Bandana C comes in a teal floral cotton‑mix fabric. I decorated it with gold hot‑fixed hearts and finished it with a leather‑like tassel at the front point for a fun, stylish touch.

Bandana D uses a turquoise floral cotton print and a pretty ribbon edging that frames the design beautifully. Like Bandana C, it also includes a leather‑like tassel at the front point for extra charm.

These bandanas suit small dog breeds with neck sizes between 8–11 inches (20–28 cm), including Maltese, Toy Pomeranians, and Dachshunds. They work well for everyday wear, special outings, or simply adding a bit of personality to your dog’s look.

You can wash all of them by hand, making them easy to care for. After washing, let them air dry and give them a quick iron if you want them looking crisp again.

Since I source all fabrics from repurposed clothing, these bandanas offer an eco‑friendly option for dog owners who love sustainable, handmade accessories. Each one‑of‑a‑kind piece brings a little flair, colour, and individuality to your dog’s wardrobe.
