Introduction
With the trend towards metallics, gold polka dots seem to be all the rage, and fabric stamping is an easy and inexpensive way to get this look.

Insert Foil
Insert a piece of tin foil into the middle of the onesie, make sure it is the same width as your onesie. Keep the tin foil nice and flat.

Prep Paint
Get the paint ready. A sturdy paper plate makes a great paint palette. Dab the circle sponge in the paint and really allow the sponge to soak up the paint. This may require more paint.
Step 3
Stamp Dots
Use the circle sponge to apply the paint onto the onesie. Use a gentle, but firm push. Do not move the sponge around when applying. Simply press down in one spot, and pick the sponge back up.
Step 4
Smooth Texture
If your paint circle has too much texture, use a paintbrush to gently brush the texture down until you have nice smooth circles.
Step 5
Allow to Dry
Allow paint to fully dry for 4 to 6 hours. A blow dryer can speed up the process. Flip onesie over to the other side and repeat the process. Remove the tin foil when done.
Step 6
Cut Ribbon
For a little extra bling, add some gold bows using metallic ribbon.
Step 7
Complete!
If you are working with a tank top onesie, simply tie the bows directly onto the straps and you are done. If working with a short-sleeve onesie, make the bow as you normally would. Then use a thread and needle to make a few stitches along the back center of the bow to the front of the onesie in various spots to secure.
