You can regularly find baby onesies at dollar stores, just waiting to be embellished. Craftster member retro-redux stamped this onesie for a super simple, yet super cute little baby gift!
Project Estimate:
Onesie $1
Stamp (on hand)
Acrylic or Fabric Paint $1
Total Cost: $2
Tip: If you don’t have any stamps, carve one out of a potato, wine cork, or eraser. To fix acrylic paint to fabric, soak with vinegar and iron dry.

Thanks folks! I tried stamping a onesie up with every stamp pad I’ve picked up … all the images disappeared after a wash, even with heat setting. But paint, there’s an idea! Thanks <3
