Before – an old rod iron couch that was black. I primed it with white paint, and then spray painted it avocado. I used the old cushions and bought some covers from ikea online for $60 for all 3. We re- did this couch and table for a grand total of $100.00

After – Outdoor rug $25 from Pier One.

So I designed my first onesies, this is one of them. I told Van to look surprised… I think he takes direction pretty well. huh? Here is Van modeling my 123 king of the hill onesie!

I plan on hanging them all along the crib or outside on a clothes line and taking a photo of them once I am ready to do a photoshoot.

This was just for fun! I took the photo of this one after Van was wearing it, so it is a little wrinkled.

I will have several made in time for the beginning of Dec so I can sell them to people for gifts for the holidays! Let me know if you want one, the quantities will be limited, and each one is hand done. So they all look different. I am working on purchasing organic cotton onesies to design on with water and vegetable based inks so they will be 100% healthy for the little tots.

I wanted to list a couple of all natural companies/websites that I really like a lot, along with some books & Cd’s I really want to get for Van.
