I've only painted a stenciled image on a onesie for a friend. Now that I have one of my own, I'd love to try something a little more special. Thanks for the contest.

I would love to win this giveaway- no babies on the way for me - but when my neice was in utero we decorated a bunch of onesises for her. I went to a baby shower once where we used fabric paint on onesies for the mom to be - it's a blast.

I have several onsies waiting to be altered. My baby boy needs some boyish atire, and he has several cousins on the way who will also need some cool onsies! wball.12@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteCathie, I have a new grandson, born one month ago and a new granddaughter born 3 days ago! They are both in the market for some very cool onsies as their mothers are very artistic and I would love to surprise them with something unique! I have done some simple embroidery on onesies but I know this book is going to get me going on a new track!
ReplyDeleteA onesie is probably the only thing I haven't altered! I have a friend with a baby on the way and the book is coming out at a perfect time for me :) scorpn5[at]sbcglobal[dot]net
ReplyDeleteI have a stack of onesies that I am planning on altering this weekend for my baby boy! I have babies on the way in my family and would love to make some gifts!
ReplyDeleteI have altered before... but this looks AMAZING.. thank you for the opportunity
ReplyDeleteI have played around with altering...ruffles and freezer paper fun. However would love to see all your wonderful ideas! Thanks, carolynyake@msn.com
ReplyDeleteThese are so adorable!! I think my favorite is "Major POOP" ---too cute!! :)
ReplyDeleteSUPER PRIZE! I just altered a onsie for my 8 month old and a tshirt for my 1 1/2 year old for them to wear on easter.. its kind of like your "junior prom" one... I put a bowtie, dress shirt ruffles, and buttons on the little one, and a regular tie applique and dress shirt ruffles on the bigger one. I used red bandana fabric (because I had some scraps to use up) so I call them the "redneck dress shirts"
ReplyDeleteemail: chasingrays@hotmail.com
Hmm, I think the funnest one I altered was the tie dye pumpkins for Halloween...I just had to give him a little jack o lantern on his tushy =)
ReplyDeleteI love to alter onesies. Infact, my daughter is wearing one now. It has ruffles on the bum!

ReplyDeletenilly1st@gmail.com
I have two little ones that I want to refashion for.
ReplyDeleteWe used iron-on transfers to spruce up some tiny snapsuits for my daughter before she was born. I learned a valuable lesson about not using cheap transfers!
ReplyDeleteI like to make matching snapsuits and undershirts for my kids for each holiday.
ReplyDeletemaryadams@gmail.com
I love altering babies clothes. I cut the front part of my friends baby's onsie, and I turned it into a bib by using the front part where the tummy is. Then,I presented back to my friend for her baby to use again!
ReplyDeletepixiedustcentral@gmail.com
I've just gotten into putting appliques (initials & basic shapes) on onesies! So much fun to do inbetween my 1 yr olds naptimes :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway chance!

I've never decorated a onesie, but I did applique a little giraffe on a baby-sized fleece jacket once. I think it turned out pretty cute!
ReplyDeleteI've taken onesie's and added color to them with permanet markers. I never write the name of a child on their tops because that puts them on a first name basis with a stranger if he (or a she) can get close enough to read it. I've put horses and dogs on tops and used tulip paints to do the details.
ReplyDeleteBillie C
I have done freezer paper stenciling to onesie's, but look forward to doing much more once I get a hold of your book.
ReplyDeletekdspringer@gmail.com
