Since joining pinterest, I have become much craftier. I now own a hot glue gun, an array of ribbons, buttons, card stock paper, glitter, stickers, and scrapbook paper. I even put together my own cleaning solution using white vinegar and dawn dish soap. (works like a charm by the way!) Pinterest makes all of my DIY dreams come true with the help of their endless ideas and blogs.
Back in May, I threw my friend Megan a shower for her little girl Ava (see previous post for cute pictures). The theme was "onesies" which had DIY crafts written all over it. For the invitations, I made them into the shape of an actual onesie. Below I will show some pictures, and write out some directions.

paper for each invitation, to keep it exciting! |
Using a onesie
template (which I found on google images after typing "onesie template") Trace and cut template from 2 identical pieces of scrapbook paper. Make the design show on the front and back. Hole punch on each shoulder (through both sheets). Using a color coordinated ribbon, make little bows, slipping them through the holes (essentially securing the sheets of paper together). Hot glue 2 buttons on the top. Insert message inside. And....taaa-daa! You officially have the cutest baby shower invitations EVER!
