Make Doggie Doorbells Using Ribbon To match Your Decor
Doggie Doorbells are a good way to teach your dog to let you know that they have to go out side. Once your dog has been properly trained to use the bells, they will not scratch the door or whine at you if they have to go out

Step 1Measure Your Door - Pick the door in your house where your dog will go out to pee. Hang the measuring tape at a place where you would like the bells to hang and make a note of the length.
-
Step 2Making The Handle - Cut 12″ of ribbon, fold it over like illustrated in the picture and pin it together. Sew a seam with the zig zag stitch about 1/2″ about the ribbon edge
-
Step 3Cutting Ribbon For the Bells - Now that the handle is completed, it must be measured since it contributes to the total length of the finished product.
My handle measures 6″ long. The TOTAL length of the finished doggie doorbells that I want is 30 inches. So I want to cut the longest ribbon to a length of 24″. The second overlapping ribbon will be cut three inches shorter and the third overlapping ribbon will be cut six inches shorter. -
Step 4Assembling Ribbon For The Bells - Place the ribbons together, starting with the longest one on the bottom. Pin the ribbon handle to the bundle of ribbons so that it looks like this.
Now attach the handle to the ribbons with two separate zig zag seams -
Step 5Attaching The Bells to The Ribbon - Now it’s time to sew the ribbons onto the bells. Put the split rings onto the bells and sew a bell onto each ribbon corner like this. Repeat this for all three ribbon ends and you’re done!
