Hula Girl Onesie Tutorial (late post)





I am so proud to be part of a group of mommas who are wonderful and have become great friends for me and Z. The momma who started the group "Strolling Mommas of Miami" is Tai Rodney and so sadly her and her family moved to Hawaii. So we planned a surprise party Hawaiian style! I decided to use my crafty tools ( felt, and scissors) and make Z a Hula Girl Onesie. I made it literally the night before at 11 pm when Z and the Hubby fell asleep.


Materials needed: 
1. plain white onesie
2. different color felt
3. scissors
4. small cup or something circular
5. heat N bond or Glue Gun

I used the bottom of a small cup to trace perfect lil coconut circles.

                                                                   

                                                             I then bonded them in the chest area of the onesie.


I then cut 3 strips of orange felt one of them was the longer than the other. 
I bonded them on the onesie to form a shape to bathing suit strings.


Next bond the coconut circles on top to complete your top.

                                                     
                                                        For the grass skirt I used a full sheet of green felt and simply cut strips making it look like a skirt. Make sure to leave room on top for flowers.


                                                             

                                                            Next bond the skirt to the onesie. If needed cut end to measure onesie.

                                                         

Last, draw some flowers and cut them with any color felt . Bond them to the top of the skirt and your baby is  ready to Hula! 



Z was ready for the party!

                                                  Aloha, Tai and Kassandra!! you will be missed!!!


Using the same felt i made lil hula skirts for the party cups. So simple just cut strips then glue gun them to the cup. Add an umbrella and you got yourself a "hula cup".
