If you feel the ties are not long enough,

you can always make them longer.

I tie mine in a knot, then slip the

bandanna over the dog's head.

Tassel: Make a tassel using all the colors and

attach to the point of the bandanna

2.5 inches

You will need to determine the length of your tassel,

so your dog does not trip on it, get it caught in their nails
