Personalized Onesies

Steal this idea: personalized onesies.

We had a baby shower for my sister, Rebeca, this weekend. She’s due in about a month or so, adding another girl to our family!

Each guest was sent a onesie prior to the shower and was asked to personalize it for baby Kaylin.

The onesies were so original and were such a personal way of honoring the new bundle of joy. (I hope to have photos soon.)

I went to Michael’s and scanned the aisles for something cute, but easy-to-do. My sewing capabilities don’t extend beyond replacing a button.

Summer spotted a small dog patch that looked just like Rebeca’s English bulldog (her other baby.)

I picked up an “I” and a “♥” iron-on rhinestones and added the bulldog patch.

OK, this isn’t the most practical wear and Janine points out that rhinestones can be a chocking hazard but c’mon this is mostly for show and how many times will a newborn wear each onesie anyway? Either way, it’s a great way to ooooh and ahhh.
