    I recommend squinting, then using an aegyosal pen or brown eyeshadow draw a line based off your natural aegyosal then to get a light brown eyeshadow and apply upwards then finally using a white eyeshadow or glitter in the middle of your aegyosal.

    Be careful that it’s a very close fit over the dog’s snug collar or only have it on the dog when you’re out together because you don’t want the bandana getting caught on anything. Same goes for hanging id’s-your dog will panic if it gets caught and may suffer a medical event.

    Tip: when you use the burrito method you can feed your elastic in before you pull the fabric right sides out. Feed your elastic down the centre of your scrunchie, close the elastic by knotting or sewing it, pull your scrunchie right sides out then close up scrunchie. It means you don't have to fight as much gathered fabric when closing the elastic. I hope this makes sense.

    My 92 year old Grandmother just gifted me her fabric stash (which she's been saving since the 50's!) and amid all the scraps I found an unfinished midi skirt. She had already made the waistband, hemmed it, and added both a zipper and pockets, so all I have to do is sew the waistband on. Watching this tutorial gave me the idea to turn it into a pinafore dress too! She had quite a bit of the same fabric left over, so I'll be able to make it out of the same material :) I can't wait to show her the finished product!

    Thanks. I was disappointed that you called it invisible, because it totally isn't. My mend is on the front of the knee shin, so I do need it to be invisible. This provides is something I have done for decades on my jeans and it's fine if it's in the crotch, but again, is NOT invisible.
