My baby girl is turning one on Wednesday. As in – tomorrow.
Can we just have a moment of silence as that sinks in?
I still cannot believe it’s been a year already since she was born! But… I’m not ready to discuss that… So moving on!
I baked maked {yes, I know that’s not a word} a cupcake shirt this weekend! Wanna see?
Sometime this summer, I saw this adorable cupcake shirt on Semi Charmed Kinda Wife and fell.in.love! Love, love, love the ribbon “frosting!” {She did it with a glue gun…smart chica.} I immediately pinned it on my Pinterest DIY board knowing I’d have to make one for Miss M!
And since Miss M’s birthday {that I am choosing to forget about} is coming up, I knew it was time for me to give it a try!
And I’m SO thrilled!
I used a hand-me-down shirt and scraps I had on hand. And even though it wasn’t intentional, I ended up using scrap fabric from Miss M’s crib skirt and pom-pom trim from her curtains. When I love something, I guess I really love it, huh?
To make the bottom part of the cupcake, I ruffled the top and bottom of a piece of fabric {the bottom a little bit of a tighter ruffle than the top} and then ironed it flat. Using {my favorite crafting product in the whole wide world!} Fabri-Tac
Now Miss M can celebrate her…let’s not talk about it…birthday in cutie-patootie style!
PS – The pictures…it was raining and cloudy and it wouldn’t stop and I couldn’t wait to get better pictures because I really wanted to show you! The shirt is adorable on the blog, but even cuter in real life.
PPS – No, the Fabri-tac makers don’t pay me to rave about their product. Not that I would mind if they did… 
PPPS – Happy November! {I’m in a slightly giddy mood, can you tell?}

Jenna, this is adorable!!!! I wish that I had come across this idea for Abby’s birthday. Great job!
Happy Birthday to your little one. My sister turns 18 tomorrow so it is a lovely day for a birthday.
Cute, cute, cute! Great job! I know how you feel about the birthdays…my baby turns 30 the same day you do. Where has the time gone? You both have turned into wonderful young women. Sniff, sniff…..
That is adorable!! Love the tiny little pom poms on the cupcake liner. You did a great job! Visiting from the YHL Pinterest Challenge. Hope you’ll stop by my blog to say hi.
That is so cute! Too bad I have 7 nephews… no girls yet! I’ll save this idea, though!
Thanks for linking up to House of Earnest! Have a great week
aw….I LOVE it….
New reader here! Found you on Pinterest! Great idea for the shirt…LOVE it! My youngest turns 1 next month and we call her Miss M, too–this is great inspiration
So very cute. Love the colors you used. First birthdays are definitely bittersweet but I think toddlers are magical.
Oh wow!! This is soooo cute! I love that pompom fringe. It’s adorable!
That is adorable! I love the pom-pom trim.
What a great idea. I used to paint on t-shirts…takes too long to dry…if you sew this is quite the genius design!
