So we came up with another variation...
Firecracker's birth mom is due with a baby girl next month, so I was trying to figure out something that Firecracker could make for her half-sister.
I sewed the burp cloths and then handed them over to Firecracker with a sharpie and let her do some decorating.
I think they turned out pretty cute, and Firecracker was happy to get to decorate them herself.
She drew Alanna (her birthmom) and her husband, herself, and the new baby.
And of course they got wrapped up with some brown paper and scrappy wrapping (see here for other scrappy wrapping ideas).

Please show my sponsors some love...

ReplyDeleteI love when gifts have a personal touch. I make burp rags like this a lot but I love that you got Firecracker involved.

ReplyDeleteI would've NEVER thought of using Sharpie on fabric. Is there no end to your creativity???
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet idea! I am sure her birth mom will be so happy with that gift. Darling!
ReplyDeleteSoooo I just noticed this post. But I do LOVE them! When I looked at the one Firecracker drew with the 4 of us it took me a few minutes to figure out who was in it. I'm going to feel bad having Baby L spit up on them haha :)
