Using What you Have..Our Baby Shower Craft Idea

Pin It


Part of  having a healthy hive in this house uses the motto "reduce, reuse, recycle".  That's probably why I love yard sales so much!
Most of you know that my sister is pregnant with twins..one of each.  At her baby shower we made a craft instead of playing a game.  We used what we had to make some really cute onsies.  We cut out fabric in shapes and used fabric glue to put them on.  The fabric came from my grandparent's basement and was my mamaw's from when she worked at the old Remnant Shop.  She saved everything so we had lots to choose from.  So, not only are they cute and resourceful..they have meaning.  The kids loved it to and they all made one too with our help.  They turned out great!


We bought the onsies at Ross really cheap.  We drew out our ideas on paper and cut out the design.  We placed the cut out paper on top of the fabric to use as a guide for cutting it.  Then, we glued the pieces on the onsie with fabric glue.  We placed a piece of paper in the onsie to keep the glue from sticking the onsie together.  They dry very quickly!!
