here's the original post: http://www.reddit.com/r/malefashionadvice/comments/1ik7g6/saw_someone_wearing_this_does_anyone_know_where_i/

After everyone's advice, I decided to try and make one myself. I actually found another design online I liked and made a second one.

The results were pretty decent for the little expense and effort. I had to do some touch-ups with a black permanent marker (I tried to zoom in on the photo so you could see), but from a natural distance the touch-ups are invisible.

Here's how I did it:

  1. bought a $2.56 tie from amazon: http://www.amazon.com/TopTie-Solid-Skinny-Black-Necktie/dp/B003YXUKKA/ref=sr_1_4?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1375653579&sr=1-4

  2. taped the pattern out on the tie using Scotch Blue edge lock tape http://www.scotchblue.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/Scotch-BlueBrand/Scotch-Blue/Resources/Edge-Lock-Protector/

  3. used flat white spray paint I bought from Walmart for 98 cents. Sprayed 3 coats. Waited roughly a half-hour between coats, then let dry entirely.

  4. Removed the tape.

  5. Used a black permanent marker to touch-up the bleed from the white paint 'caused by the texture of the tie fabric.

    Overall, I'm pleased with the results, especially 'cause it took maybe an hour of on-and-off work total (for both ties together, not counting dry time) and it cost less than $4 bucks per tie.
