Collar Addicts Anonymous

Harleigh got a new one It is seriously the awesome <3

My two Paco collars.

Bottom, Zuma in new chocolate. Top, Pickles in tan/smoke/silver.



Now. . .on to the bazillion more I would like. Next, I believe Flora, Veronica, George. I have a problem.

The smoke stones are lovely.

I didn't realize I had as many as I do.. I have a nylon/ribbon/etc pile.. and an Ella's Lead pile now.

Your collection grew a ton, Maf! What does the one with writing say? I can't see the whole collar!

Here are pics of a couple of the collars I've bought off of etsy.

Sally's etsy collar.


Seamus' etsy collar.


Just ordered him this one (because we joke that he looks like a fox).


Bought this one for puppy.


And this one for puppy when she gets older.


I have tonnes more, these are just the ones from etsy. I think I have a problem! I do want to get them leather Pacos though.

Where did you get those?!? THEY ARE SO CUTE!!

I think I have close to 40 collars now. Most of them are solid color martingales that we sell at my work. Cricket has one in every color. Joey has a sky blue one and Bamm has a red one. I have an EL collar for Cricket... A few collars friends have made me, a collarmania martingale that Bamm is wearing right now, a Wiggles Wags Whiskers martingale, a Superman martingale... And various others. I LOVE collars!!!! There are so many more that I want too. I also have 4 leather leashes and a few nylon leashes as well as two mountain rope leashes, various harnesses, GLs etc.

On etsy! Just do a search for collars. I shouldn't even be allowed on that website anymore because I just want to buy ALL THE THINGS.

Yeah, can't help myself.. Arson needs a more manly collar in an appropriate width now.. 1.5" is ridiculous on him as I tried what I had on him..

It says Cpt Oblivious. While I adore Smudge, he is so unobservant.. Kerri started calling him Captain Oblivious... It stuck lol.

Ugh, I've been window shopping at Karma Collars on and off all week. Why do I do this to myself?

Introducing Paco #3....the El Dorado, chocoloate/brass! I wasn't sure about it at first, but now I really like it on Lizzie!

LOVE.

OMG! I love that. It's such a delicate pattern.


I have way too many collars. I'm going to leave it at that.

Can I get opinions on collars like these? Does anyone have one? Do you think they would hold up for a few years? I LOVE them, but am worried about the ribbon pulling out or staining in the rain or something...

I make collars like these with jacquard ribbon... Doesn't "pull out" but will get "fuzzy" with extensive wear... Taking a flame to it takes all the fuzzies back and it looks good as new. Never had one bleed, but that
Would all depend on the source of fabric most likely. They clean up easy in the dishwasher/washer and seem to resist staining more so than grosgrain ribbon.

So pretty !!! I love getting my collars from the flea market LOL ... They always have great deals on pretty things , I like to get the great deals because my ACDs are hard on collars & with the threat of snakes, they never wear one when at home & they never go out anywhere so I don't see spending $60 on a collar what will never get used.

But if I did I would buy ones that looked like that ... Nice
