Bambi fur accessories

Faux fur accessories make a lovely addition to lolita and mori girl outfits adding texture as well as being practical and warm.

Innocent World and Swimmer have both released fur collars in the popular 'Bambi' print.

 I really love bambi faux fur but these collars are quite rare and hard to find so I set about making my own. It was hard to find bambi print fur and in the end I decided to buy some fur boot/leg covers from Rakuten and remake them into a collar and other accessories.

 I undid the seams of one of the boot covers so that I had one piece of fur fabric. This piece I made into a fur collar. I left the seams of the second one intact and turned it into a fur hand muff, there were enough spare bits of fabric left over to make a pair of fur wrist cuffs too.

This is how they turned out. 

I used a simple C type of shape to make the collar which I based on a plain fur one that I already own. All you need to make one of your own is some fabric, ribbon or lace to make the ties, faux fur fabric and some backing fabric. I used a cotton fabric with a print but polyester lining fabric would work just as well.

I hope I get chance to wear them now before the weather warms up too much, the collar will look nice with cardigans and boleros but the hand muffler is definitely a winter only accessory.
