I'm an aunt again! It's been official for a couple of months now, but I haven't gotten around to blogging about this big news yet. In some ways it really doesnt seem official to me. My new nephew was born in OK, and we still havent made a trip out there to see the little guy... and although pictures have confirmed he is cute as a button, until I can actually cuddle with him it still seems somewhat surreal.
Anyhow, I made a few things for him and snapped pictures so that I could one day share them wih you. :)
I bought a pack of baby Onesies... in Newborn as well as 12 months sizes, then designed some super cute illustrations in photoshop. I printed them on some super high quality iron on transfer paper, cut the images, whipped out my iron, made sure to use NO steam.... and voila customized baby gear for the new little man in our lives.
I also had a couple tote bags lying around, so I created a coordinating design and applied it the same way.
I hear that baby loved his goodies... and I felt all warm and fuzzy inside knowing I was sending something that I personally had a hand in creating. :) Using the iron on transfer sheets was a breeze... I actually ordered some high quality stuff online. I'll have to try and dig up the name brand. I've purchased the stuff from wal-mart, but am not consistently happy with the results I get.
How about you? Do you have any adventures with iron on fabric sheets? :)
