A few weeks ago Heather needed a tie for her baby. She came up with this ingenious technique and today she's going to share it with us. Hip hip hooray! (p.s. isn't the model adorable?)
absolutely genius! I have been looking for a way to make a cute tie for my baby and this is definately the way I will do it! I am going to buy two ties, one for my baby and one for my husband, that match for father's day at church!
Bless you! I've been needing to make a tie for my two-year-old because I know he won't keep a clip-on on and he really wants a tie like daddy but everything I've come up with was WAY harder than this!
I love this! I was given a whole bunch of old ties right before I saw this, so it was perfect timing. I made some of my own with a couple changes...I used buttonhole elastic and a button, so it can grow with the baby and also managed to get a toddler tie out of what was left. If you'd like to see it, I've got it posted on my blog here http://helpinglittlehands.blogspot.com/ . And of course there's a link back to your blog at the beginning of the post since you had the original idea. Thanks so much!!
FINALLY got around to using your tutorial. And I LOVE the result. I blogged about it here: http://whimsikel.blogspot.com/2010/05/sunday-refashioning-for-my-man-child.html Thanks so much for the tute!!

I've seen quite a few upcycled men's tie to boy's tie tutorials. This is by far, the quickest and easiest one I've found yet!
