I was inspired late last night to test out a Peter Pan collar for my heavy drooler. It's similar to this DIY from Katie of Skunkboy Creatures, but instead of connecting in the front with a button, it velcros together like a bib and sports some enlarged french knots.
It's the same premise as the bib I shared earlier this week but I altered the pattern so that it was much shorter and had the rounded parts at the bottom.
It's still a little large around her neck and maybe thicker on the sides than I'd like for aesthetic purposes but it'll do for the next three months or so.
What do you think? Does it make her look like a clown? Because PeeWee Herman's Big Adventure has put me off clowns for life.

That is the cutest thing. I don't think she looks like a clown... more like an Elizabethan! xx
You want the truth? It kind of looks like Shakespeare's collar. Ruby can work anything, though. ;D
She's a Puritan!
That's adorable. Puritan, elizabethan, Peter Panian, whatever - it's CUTE.
it does remind me a little bit of the bard. not clown like at all. which is great, because i'm with you about pee wee herman's great adventure. hello nightmares!!
I agree with Roses & tea--very Elizabethan! Very cute!
Totally cute! And not clownish in any way. :)
Really cute! And so much better than wearing a bib all day. Wish I would have thought of this when mine were that age!
Beautiful.. & the bib is cute too! ;)
super cute! I don't think it's clown-like. (although I don't think that would be a bad thing... my sister is a clown so I don't think they're all creepy!)
It IS cute! Especially with the blue dot detail.
it's totally cute! peter pan collars are my absolute fave!!

So cute!! Great idea and I bet it works great!! Good idea... much better than a longer bib all the time!!
If anything, I think she looks like Sir Francis Drake, and I mean that in the good way.
Oh definitely cute. Nothing reminiscent of a clown.
my son had terrible reflux, so i had to keep a thick bib on him at all times to catch the spit-up. ugh. i would have much rather he wore something cute and small like this, so that his cute shirt designs were visible. great idea! <3
she is so cute...but clownlike? well now that you mention it. he he
love the leg warmers and the socks that look like shoes.
Cute Idea! And genius too! I didn't think of clown until you mentioned it, but I agree with Violet. My first thought was the whole Shakespeare era :)
Hey look! It's an adorable Sir Walter Raleigh!

She looks ADORABLE and the bib is both functional and CUTE!!
Please share all the wisdom you gather r.e. making chores fun.
What a great idea! I think my 20-month-old could still benefit from this! Great job!
Genius! I think I'll make one today for my little girl
