While it sometimes feels like the parents are more in need of a good nap than their kiddos, babies are notorious for their cute sleepy ways! And no better way to celebrate naps than this adorably punny Naptorious K.I.D. onesie!

The decal was cut in Black Easyweed HTV on a Denim Blue Hand Dyed Onesie, and although both are on the darker end of their color families I think they went great together and didn’t have any issues with the decal standing out, which sometimes is hard with dark color combinations. I used the font Freshman when I designed this decal; which you can download for free from dafont.com to personalize onesies or any of your other craft projects!

Onesie Design Cut Files

1. After downloading the cut files, import them into the Cricut Software. After creating a new project, select Upload Image. Select the file you wish to upload and it will automatically take you to the final upload screen, where you can name the file, then select Save. The SVG Files are sized so that they will automatically cut to the size you see in the photos, but if you want to change the size you can do so to fit your onesies the way you like.

2. After selecting “Make It” Make sure to select the Mirror Mode on the cutting screen. Cut the design in your choice of heat transfer vinyl with the Iron On (for Easyweed HTV) or Iron On+ (for Glitter HTV) Setting on your Cricut, with the shiny side of the material down.

3. Weed the additional material off of the backing material so that, looking down with the shiny side up, you can see your design with the correct orientation.Iron your onesie to remove any creases, then center the design over the top half of the onesie. Arrange the design shiny side up, then cover with parchment paper. Make sure to keep the parchment paper between the design and the iron.

4. Set your Iron to the second Highest setting. Cover the parchment paper and decal with your iron, pressing down firmly on the design. Using your iron like a small heat press, press the design for at least 20-30 seconds, repeating and overlapping the last position as you move across the design. Luckily, onesie decals are so small, you should be able to fit the whole decal under the iron in a single press!

5. Remove the parchment paper and peel the clear  backing from the decal, leaving the design on the onesie. I love pairing this design with our other funny punny Everyday I’m Cuddlin’ Onesie for a fun onesie combo perfect for any new mom and baby!
