Sniff. It is a sad day when the cutest tiny baby outfit no longer fits. This simple tutorial converts my favorite onesie into wall art so that I we can keep enjoying it.
After assembling the materials, this project only takes about ten minutes. Grab your (cleanest) most sentimental item of clothing, a canvas frame, and a stapler (or better a staple gun). See full tutorial from Gap-Threadless on pinterest.
I love this owl onesie to use as the foundation for an art project. If my long-torsoed ten month old would fit in the 12-18 month size, I would buy TWO (one for wearing and one for crafting). Or I would cheap out and purchase one for a quickie photo before creating my canvas. It’s $16 right now on gap.com.

Love this idea but do you think I can convince my husband who has 4 drawers of favorite t-shirts to donate his to the creative cause?
