Great idea lilyhermes! The next best thing, to the real item. Who can beat the price! Thank you for sharing this great idea.

A craft-project as lemming is born! Thank you so much for sharing this.

PS: Your scarf is a beauty!

I have seen the real thing in person and this is a fantastic lookalike! How long is the collar that you bought ...?

lilyhermes - I love it! What a great idea. I only wish I could sew!

Well, Ranag, I owe it all to you, dear. If you hadn't shown the underside of your collar, I probably never would have figured it out.

I can't sew worth beans either, but I thought this would be so simple that even I could do it.

It's not as luxurious as yours, I'm afraid, but the current available H dollars are in very limited supply!

Thanks for the inspiration and enjoy wearing your beauty.

How about action shots?

Hi mistikat, the collar measures 22". I was looking for a slightly shorter one, but this was the closest I could find to the real deal (plus, I have a pretty short attention span when it comes to searching for anything non-Hermes on eBay!) It has Velcro closures on each end, but they don't interfere with the scarf.

Thanks so much for your kind praise.

Love it!!!

How about action shots?

Wish I could, piaffe,but I haven't figured out the automatic timing feature on the camera, and when I shoot into a mirror, all I get is flash.

I'll see if my sister can take a picture when I go up to visit for Christmas and will post that action shot when I return.

I'm glad you like my little "project."

Ladies, thanks so much - you have made my day. Now, I just hope that the H. police don't come after me! If I end up behind Hermes bars, will someone promise to send me the new scarf catalogs?

I'm glad you enjoyed it and am equally as happy that I could contribute to the Hermes sisterhood!

A happy holiday to all. May you all find lots or orange under your trees.

^ They might be barenia covered bars (like the handrails at H (I think)).

Happy holidays!

I could probably deal with that kind of incarceration then. Maybe cashmere H. blankets on the bunks too?

or maybe they are tiny cells furbished like the Hermès Smart??
