Crazy dog! 😂Alfie is one of those pups who doesn't really mind wearing a bandana, a bow tie, or even a winter jumper but he's not always cooperative when the camera comes out. Trying to photograph him for my Pup Bandana blog post was a tad difficult. This was the best of a bad bunch and maybe one day I will try again. Or not.

We have had So. Much. Rain here in Newcastle, so it was prob not really the right decision to move the bandana photoshoot outside. Alfie loved it, zooming around the wet grass and he ended up a big muddy mess. But that bandana did stay nicely in place 😂

Why a SCRUNCHIE STYLE pup bandana? Let's face it, theres plenty of ways to sew a bandana including just hemming a simple square of fabric and tying that around your pup's neck. But I wanted a bandana with a bit more substance for Alfie the pupstar and decided on a scrunchie style.

🌸The main reason I love the scrunchie style bandana>>

It's easy to slip over Alfie's head without having to worry about tying up ties or snapping in snaps, especially as he can be a wriggly bum at times.

Check out the fun tutorial on the Hey Alfie blog for a step by step guide including a free PDF pattern and you too can have your own scrunchie style bandana too.

A totally Instagram worthy, super simple pup bandana project. Who would have thought I'd be dragging out my sewing machine to stitch up cute bandanas for Alfie the pupstar.

I've been sewing! There are some pretty cool things out there for pups and I decided to try my hand at stitching a bandana for Alfie the pupstar. I've become a frequent visitor to Spotlight and I'm sure the staff must think, here she comes again! Maybe I need an intervention as I have a huge stockpile of fabric that keeps growing.

These fun prints are hard to resist though and I've used the mustard spot fabric to make a Hey Alfie bandana. You can make one too. Check out my blog tutorial here and download your free bandana pattern here: https://heyalfiecavoodle.wixsite.com/hey-alfie/post/easy-dog-bandana-diy
