I make these little dresses for my girls and for sale out of men’s dress shirt cast-aways, and often I have been asked to make something similar for the little boys in my life. I always say that I’m working on the pattern, but it just isn’t as fun for me to craft for boys. Crafting is what scratches my frills-and-lace itch, boys don’t like the frills.

But Made by Rae, and MADE are hosting a whole month of crafts for boys which they are calling, “Celebrate the Boy.” I am going to take this month to set aside the time to make a pattern for a boy’s romper made from a men’s shirt. In fact I’m going to put it together this weekend! And I mean it! If this blog doesn’t have a boy’s romper on the Monday post, you can all taunt me in the comments.
