This afternoon I managed to expand my baby's wardrobe by using stuff we already had. Want to read the details? Of course you do. If not just humor me. :o)
Last week I was browsing in Ross and found a set of four striped Carter's onesies! I had been looking for some more newborn-sized clothes for my baby and I'm a big fan of the Carter's brand (as long as I can find their stuff on sale).
I got the set of four for $9.99, so around $2.50 each. Not too bad for long sleeves. But I wanted to make them more interesting. So I went through my fabric today and managed to make each onesie into a unique item just for my little guy.
Yep, I jumped on the mustache bandwagon. No regrets here. :o)
I also wanted to do a rocket ship since the nursery's space-themed. I found a free printable online and scaled it to fit. That's how I did the mustache onesie above as well!
I had a robot fabric remnant in my stash, so I just picked one of my favorites and cut it out to fit.
And finally, I found this little cutie on a puppy fabric remnant.
So in less than an hour, I ended up with four one-of-a-kind onesies. And I love them. Almost makes me sad that he'll eventually outgrow them. But I suppose I could do it again with the next size up whenever he does. :o)
