| Idea to Keep Your Lil Ones Warm With having the 6 girls and the days being to cold to go outside to play or even just take them to the vet, I came up with an idea to keep the lil ones warm and wanted to share my idea. For those of you who have lil ones that are just too small for the outfits out there or just need something that is not too expensive to just get you by on these cold days. .old socks can turn into the warmest creations. I took old sock and cut off the cuffs (for my smaller ones) and cut two holes for the front legs and just decorated them up with ribbon I had laying around. If the cuffs are two small you can use mens socks or cut the footsie part of two socks and sew them together (hot pink and white striped in picture). Hope this helps someone keep there babies warm if even only temporary. Merry Christmas to All.

| I sewed them on because that is all I had at the house but a glue gun would probably work too.

| This is an excellent idea. Any suggestions for those of us with teapots? I would love to make something like that for my 10 and 12 pounders.

| For the bigger ones I have used the sleeves off of an old sweater or sweatshirt. And they work great, too! |
