More Fun with Onesies {or white is just so boring}

Yesterday's nap time was filled with onesie fun. My little miss is getting taller by the day. Its also finally turned cold here. She's no where near ready for 6m. Really, 3-6m are huge on her. But they're the only long sleeved outfits I have, so I decided to go with it and make them cute. She'll grow into them too quickly!


For the first onesie, I used this awesome idea over at Kojo Designs. I used a couple of her dad's old shirts {yeppie for an excuse to get rid of some of his shirts!} and kept the seams inside rather than exposed like the tutorial. I'll defiantly be making more of these! I also think I'll be cutting the bottom off the onesie so there's no snaps to deal with. 

For the second onesie, I wanted to have some more fun with freezer paper. However, the printer was being temperamental and didn't want to print directly to the freezer paper. 


Since play A didn't work, I printed out the shape of CA and then traced it onto the freezer paper. I used an exacto knife to cut out the shape. After painting and sealing the paint, I knew it needed something more. 


I looked around and there's a big trend out there to put a heart on the place that's special to you. While adorable, this is hard. I'm from Southern California, my husband is from far Northern California, and we met and got married somewhere in the middle. Torn, I decided to {poorly} hand embroider a heart next to the state. Its a whole lot of state love!

Come party with me!
