Atomic Collars is my newly launched collar business that features upcycled men's belts paired with patterns from ties, tops, pillowcases and more to make some pretty awesome collars!
Why shouldn't your dog be as well dressed as you? (Plus our collars are the BOMB at Atomic Collars!)

Atomic Collars pairs wickedly with my mad dog photography skills here at About A Dog Photography. It also goes well with a cluttered kitchen table turned sewing station.... The pink paisley is a tie that hasn't been named, the blue is a belt, the bright red and yellow is a scrap from Burning Paisley, while Abassador (the striped blue one) sits on some newly acquired fat quarters for bow ties...
A handful of unfinished Antsy bow ties!
Axle, my pouty face pup, wondering why I have the camera pointed in his face and am not throwing the ball. He's also rocking a pattern called Carnival.
New and exciting things to come! Americana Plaid, and a pair of green swim trunks in the top bag, and one of the spring patterns made from a ladies blouse (these are super sneak peeks as they haven't been announced yet!)
This is also a new pattern... yes its a tie. And it is very... flamboyant and a bit boggling at the same time. It doesn't have a name yet, so if you have any ideas on what to call this pattern, let me know!
A box of "blanks" - these are pieces of patterns (from ties, shirts, pillowcases and more!) all prepped and sewn onto belts. They are "blank" due to not having a style or size. From the top is Greens, Dinomite, Dottie and Blocked. A smidge of Spaceman and Pinky can also be seen.
A pile of collars! Ooo la la look at all the patterns! And yes I can name them all (there may be a point when I won't be able to....). Crazy Garden, Dots Dashes, Chaotic Celtic, Chaotic, China Blue, Orange You Glad, Monster Mash, Summertime, Pixel and a second China Blue. Whew!
China Blue - this pair of collars sports patterns from the same pillowcase!!!! Super Awesome!
Introducing Orange You Glad! A brand spanking new pattern, not even on the website or FB yet! Isn't she a stunning piece? And guess where the pattern comes from.... a dishrag!
Since each of the Atomic Collars patterns is paired with a belt, each one is flexible and at the same time strong and durable.
I asked Axle to model for me. This is what I got...
Icey on the other hand is pro at modeling. She's rocking Chaotic.
Bender's thoughts on modeling...
He's wearing Atom in a martingale style. The Atom is made from a tie! This was one of the first collars I created!
