Baby Announcement Door Hanger

Baby Boy Announcement Door Hanger

This is a great idea for something to hang on the door at the hospital when the baby is born! You could also attach it to a wreath.


What you will need:
1. Onesie cutout, from http://www.build-a-cross.com/
2. Light blue spray paint 
3. Black craft paint
4. Your choice of burlap (I ended up choosing a thicker chevron burlap because it looks kind of like a collar and it ties in the colors.)
5. Paint pens, I just used black but you can use a variety of colors.  There are many to choose from at Wal-Mart!
6. Small paintbrush 
7. Staple gun

Step 1:
Spay paint the onesie blue. 





Step 2:
Make a polka dot in the center of the collar then from that point fan out on both sides to make the bow tie.  








Step 3:
This is super easy! It’s just like writing with a thin tipped marker! Just write the name of the baby, the date, the weight, and how long he was all in your own handwriting. 



Step 4: 
Fold the burlap in a ribbon style and staple the burlap on the back to the collar of the onesie.  Make sure also to staple near the edges so that it will hang right.

  1. An excellent idea for hanging on the bedroom door of a hospital birth. There is no Hanger factory telling you these things happen
