Boy Stuff - Cravats
Nov. 22nd, 2010 10:56 amThankfully, 99.9% of the items that my hubby needs for his Dicken's suit is either already in his closet, or can be easily found online/in the local Mexican Boot Barn ("OMG. You really made boots out of alligator and then dyed them PINK!?!" Eh hem. It must be a cultural thing. And no, those aren't the ones we bought.)
And the cravats? Those are just plain fun!
So, after shopping a few of our favorite thrift shops, we came up with a selection of HIDEOUS and tacky ties just dying for new life. The end results look like this...
This is a group shot of all three finished cravats...they are all reversible...for even more mind-bleeding fun!
Each one for fabric detail, left to right...

Aren't they horrible lovely!?!
*chuckle*
Hubby loves them, and they are going to be quite nice with his "from-the-period" black day tails, detachable collared shirts, lovely mail-order vests and stripped pants.
