I have a 4 month old son. I also have a two-month old female yorky.I have learned a neat way to recycle his onesies to make her some cute puppy clothes!

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Things You’ll Need:

  • newborn onesie
  • needle
  • thread
  • lace

Step1
Place the onesie on a flat surface cut straight across through front and back portions of material at once.The onesie will look like a small t-shirt when you have completed this step.
Step2
Take whatever trim or lace you have decided to use and attach it all the way around the bottom of the garment(where it has been cut).
Step3
Hand stitch or use a sewing machine to attach the trim and the garment is complete.

Tips & Warnings

  • Always use a newborn onesie for small dogs.
  • If you like my idea and have larger dogs purchase your onesies according to your dogs size.
  • For male dogs just leave off the lace!
