Fabric Markers on Onesies




My 3 year old and I drew on some onesies for our expecting bundle of joy. Since I am on bed rest this was a fun project to do. I want to eventually get some other family members to make something special for the little one. All we used were Crayola Fabric Markers and blank onesies. After you are done creating your masterpiece just throw them in the dryer for about 30 minutes or just pass the iron over it!

Wonder Pets!

We celebrated our son's 2nd birthday on August 15th. The party theme was Wonder Pets. I, of course handcrafted the invitations. Not one invitation was alike. I definitely used same colors. I sewed in the outline of the 1st layer, as well as the triangle banners and added some brads on each end. With some acrylic paint I stamped the number 2 on it! I loved how they turned out, the invitation greeted our guest with a "This is Sewious"..


The party was fun, I made some ming ming cupcakes, the kids love it.



Little Evan wore a cute ming ming cape that I got him from etsy. I absolutely loved it, and so did he!

You can purchase this cape here - www.babypop.etsy.com

I also handcrafted the party favors. The guest got a small picture of Evan that they can put on their fridge, I added magnets on the back!. I Wrapped it with some left over baby blue organza wrap I had from my baby shower, and closed it up with a cute clothespin.
