Avery makes a brand of “stretchable” iron on transfers that worked great for us. I made NASCAR onesies as a Father’s Day gift for my husband… and thankfully baby girl has outgrown them… lol… NASCAR, what was I thinking… I must love this man a lot.

I’ve used Crayola’s Fabric Markers before as well, and they are great! The edges aren’t exactly fine, but the overall look is generally very cute.

Re: Iron-on paper: We have gotten ours from Office Depot or the like. I would suggest buying the most expensive they have (a difference of pennies usually), pre-washing the garment, and following the package instructions to the letter. The directions can vary about how long the iron is applied and what — if anything — is between your creation and the ironing board (or if you’re even allowed to use an ironing board!). I’ve definitely had mixed results so once your pre-washed garment is created, photograph your kid the very first time it is worn! Just in case it all goes to hell by the second time…

[...] If you’re cheap (like me), you can always improvise with some iron-ons or a sharpie. And don’t forget to vote on Tuesday! [...]
