About Doggone Bow Ties & Courtenay Elliott
Bowtie or Bow Ties? I really doggone love bowties, or is it bow ties? According to my spell check – it is indeed “bow tie”.
BOW TIES FOR EVERYONE & EVERY OCCASION
About me, I am a Memphis bow tie maker. I have made bow ties for family, friends, friends of friends, friends of family friends and more. Bow ties for folks all over the Mid-South and the world.
Have I made bow ties?! I make bow ties for proms and formals, bow ties for weddings, bow ties for balls and galas, graduation bow ties, commitment bow ties, bow ties for boys and men, bow ties for girls and women. I have even made bow ties for halloween and funerals. I have made bow ties!
BOW TIE LOVER FROM THE VERY START
It all began after teaching myself to sew “several” years ago. Being a fan of the regal and traditional look of a bow tie from the very start and noticing how bow ties have always had a reputation of a “stripe” or “dot” pattern, I decided to spice it up a bit…and spice it up i did!
These days my 100% cotton Doggone Bow Ties are doing quite well. I have hundreds(maybe thousands) of fun patterns in custom sizes. My bow ties come custom sized(without the hardware) and as self-tie bow ties. You can also purchase from my collection of bow ties re-purposed from neckties or bring your own favorite or heirloom necktie in for re-purposing. For those that enjoy a challenge and the gratification that comes with – I have self-tie bow ties.
Gift giving is a breeze for any occasion. Bow ties make fantastic gifts for almost any man – ladies too!
It is rewarding to see that my efforts make so many bow tie wearing folks – Memphians, mid-Southers and more so Doggone happy!
FACE IT – BOW TIES ARE COOL
They really are, and I have made some very cool bow ties. Some are recycled from neckties, Dad’s old necktie, Grandad’s old necktie, a husband’s old necktie. Some from scratch, and some from interesting patterns. Some machine stitched. Some hand-stitched. Some of my bow ties are staid and conservative, some hipster, some colorful, big, small, and just about every bow tie style you can imagine.
No matter what style of bow tie is yours, or if you like them all – bow ties are cool.
Make an Impression with a Doggone Bow Tie
Bow tie wearers tend to make an impression. They just seem to get remembered don’t they? That dapper family member, that quirky friend, maybe a bow tie wearing professor, or someone else from your life that made a bow tie memory. Wear a bow tie for prom, your wedding or just for fun. Get yourself a Doggone Bow Tie!
Doggone Wine Bags

Doggone Ascots
Mark my words – the ascot is making a comeback! Also known as a day cravat, once an old-school relic is now stylish. Timeless, luxurious, versatile and unique, an ascot can be dressed up or down, depending on the occasion. Get with the Beckhams, Clooneys and Craigs – get yourself a Doggone Ascot!
