Getting Started
Step 1 – Gather Bandanas
Get your three bandanas and fold them over to create long strips.
Step 2 – Tie Bandanas
Tie some jute at the end to keep in place. Then start braiding your bandanas!
Finish off with some more jute tied at the end
Step 3 – Mark Your Spot
Use a marker to mark where you want your holes on the tennis ball.
I pulled out my “trusty” hobby knife and put a hole on both sides of a tennis ball where I marked my spots.
Then place over the braided bandanas. You may have to adjust the size of your holes on the tennis ball. I had to go back and make mine a little bigger.
Step 4 – Fray the Ends
Finally get a pair of scissors and fray the ends of the dog toy.
See how easy that is!!
