With his mother's support, Darius launched a company called Beaux and Paws on Facebook and Instagram. He then started a fundraising campaign to help keep him supplied with sewing materials. He also sells his creations to the public on his Sir Darius Brown webpage. He donates a portion of the money he makes to the ASPCA. This group works to rescue animals and find them forever homes.
Darius said he now makes about 10 bow ties a week. Each one takes 15 minutes to complete.
"I work with all kinds of material, but it has to be washable since dogs like to roll around a lot," he said.

Darius's mother, Joy Brown, said she's not surprised that her son has stuck with his passion since the third grade. When Darius was 2 years old, doctors told Brown that he had a speech disorder.

At first, Brown worried that Darius might hurt himself if he used his sister's sewing machine.

Darius is now 14 years old and in the eighth grade. He lives in Newark, New Jersey. His Singer sewing machine is still working overtime in his mom's apartment. He estimates he's donated more than 600 bow ties for dogs and cats in shelters.
"Polka-dot ties, striped ties, ties with dog paws and rhinestones — every tie is different," said Darius. He added that he likes to sew them all.
Shelter workers say that Darius's bow ties help older animals, in particular. They make it so that these older pups get noticed and adopted more quickly.
"Animals who wear them get adopted right away because people find them instantly charming," said Lorri Caffrey. She is the executive director of the Mt. Pleasant Animal Shelter in East Hanover, New Jersey.
Caffrey received a first batch of ties from Darius two years ago.
"We'd never used bow ties before and right away we saw a big difference," she said.
