Baby Shower Gift Idea-Onesie Cupcakes

A friend of mine is having her 4th child soon and her sister in law (sister) gave her a shower to celebrate her newest addition this last weekend.  I always love baby showers...the beginning of a new life is such an exciting time and lets face it baby gifts are the best.  They are tiny, fun and adorable!  I love to make my gifts when I can but was having a hard time deciding what to do.  Good thing there is Pinterest (my newest obsession)!!  They have such amazing ideas!! 

I decided to make onesie/sock cupcakes...don't they sound delicious???  No...you don't eat them!!  You just use the onesie's and socks to make what looks like a cupcake and then package them up sweetly.  I am making 4 of them...so I needed 4 onesies and 4 pair of socks.  I also bought some cupcake boxes and ribbon...


To assemble them you fold the onesie in half lengthwise...


and then in half again...


Then you roll it up with one of the socks showing through like the frosting...


To keep them together I used a rubber band...


and then tied jute around them to make them even cuter...


Fill the cupcake box with cupcake liners and add all four of the rolled cupcakes to the box...


Then I just used some adorable boy ribbon and added a quick note to package it...


I love how it came together and I hope the new mom and baby did too!!  Sweet baby-
