One-Month Old Baby + One 10-Minute Craft: Status COMPLETE!

June 15, 2013 By radmegan 2 Comments

Baby Lars celebrated his one-month birthday this week, and to commemorate the moment, I felt I had to MAKE him something. 

I mean, what kind of crafter would I be if I didn’t start producing for my first born child? 

Answer: An exhausted one, with only moments of “free time”


Luckily, I had a few white onesies, some fabric pens (not a complete box, of course, so I had to use a Sharpie as well) and when the babe went down for a quick 20 minute nap, I got busy.

The steps are no great mystery, but I had to post this project on the blog to prove (to myself) that I can keep crafting with a baby. 
If you want to make your own birthday onesie, note that Sharpie markers stink to high heaven, and I had to hand wash this number in cold water & detergent TWICE to get the stink out. This step slowed down my “quick craft” quite a bit, but had I been more organized, I would have known where my black fabric marker was and could have skipped the pre-wash altogether.   
We’re having a lot of fun with this dumpling of a boy. He’s got such a sunny disposition, and most of the time, he lets us sleep a few hours in the night. That’s the best we can ask for!

    Us Scandinavians (I’m half Dane’/half Norwegian) have it made when it comes to gorgeous babies. Don’t we?
    Mine is 23yrs old, but beautiful none-the-less.
    Keep on crafting.
