Peter Pan Collars are a huge trend right now! I was inspired by the picture below, and figured that they look pretty easy to make.
If you’re feeling creative too, try this simple DIY tutorial.
What you need:
- Thick fabric such as felt or leather
- Ribbon
- Bostik/ good glue
- Scissor
- Marker
- A4 Paper
- Embellishments
- Cello-tape (optional)
STEP 1
Fold the paper in half and trace a half collar/moon shape, making sure the bottom middle reaches the folded side as seen in the picture. Cut out the shape whilst still folded to get a symmetrical collar
TIP: This takes a few attempts before getting it perfect
STEP 2
Trace the shape out onto the back of the fabric with a marker
TIP: if you’re using black material and can’t see the tracing, use chalk or Tippex to trace. Secure with cello-tape every few centimetres if you find the paper moving about.
STEP 3
Cut the shape out and embellish as desired with glue.
Attach ribbon by making 1cm slits, 1cm away from the top. Thread ribbon through and knot to secure.
TIP: Leave a 3cm space at the top of the collar to attach ribbon.
