Very cute. Where are you finding all of the dwarf clipart? I come up with ideas and magically you have the clipart to match. I can't wait to see more.

My dh just walked in the room. He also thinks this is cute. I read my other slogans to him and now he is also waiting to see the results.

What happened to the Snow White weddings one that someone mentioned the other day? I would love to see it. As you can tell from my avatar, she is my favorite and I will be disneymooning in 10/06 (if all goes according to plan) and I would love to have a shirt w/that. I already know that my ''official'' proposal will incorporate Snow White in some way. :love2:

I think that one is still in the works. Ladylucca is doing them one at a time and the first dwarf one came out today. Be patient and I'm sure we'll see it soon.

Well my shirts turned out great! I will have to post pics when I return on the 6th though becuase I just packed them away. Thanks to everyone for all of the inspiration and such a great friendly thread!

Keywords: Aladdin, magic carpet ride, disneymoon

[Blueeyes101817]

you guys are awesome..i found orange shirts at acmoore..for 2.59!
thanks guys

[Pooh67_68]

it is ridiculous what my kids can talk my DH into!!! The second Julia was born she wrapped him so far around every finger it was pathetic!!!

My DH is adopted so our kids are the only blood relatives he has - he was born with some facial birth defects and really struggled with me being pregnant - he was so afraid he might pass on his birth defects - it is amazing to watch the wonder he has that he created such perfect beautiful children - he is a really good daddy and my kids both adore him - it is hard not to be wraped around someone's finger when she crawls up in your lap hugs you real tight and says "You're the BEST daddy in the whole world!!!! I love you very much!"

Can anyone please help me find the design I'm looking for?? I saw it earlier today and can't locate it again... it a Halloween design with the castle.. Mickey & friends are standing in front of the castle dressed in costumes and there is a full moon in the sky.

Thank you!!

Hi everyone -

just tried to make my first t-shirt with not much luck! The backing paper doesn't want to seem to come off and when I try to pull it it looks like someone of the design is coming with it. I went over it again with the iron but not all spots are adhered. Any suggestions??

thanks

[Baloo]

OMG LADYLUCCA!!! I looooooove the Baloo design...thank you so much!!!! :cool1: The Bashful one is just darling!


scoutsmom...hope you're having awonderful trip.Be sure to post pictures!!

Lorikr65...did you let it cool completely? Or read over the directions that came with your tranfer paper and you might figure it our by reading those again what happened.


All in LA and TX...I hope you're safe.Y'all are in my prayers!

Amy and Kate...Kate can't help herself,she went to Catholic school! :p ;) :rolleyes1 And your story about Julia and Daddy made me tear up too!

I've been looking at all the different designs for t-shirts. Wow!! The graphics and ideas are great.I did see a Harley Mickey and thought it would be really cute to have a Harley Minnie. Any one out there able to do this? Thanks, keep up the good work!! :sunny:

Ladylucca. Thanks for making the Baloo design that I pm'd to you. I knew that Baloo would love it and I do too. I guess the possibilities are endless.

Mine does the same thing.. what type of transfers are you using? I've been using the "Print-N-Press" I'm going to switch to the Avery type as soon as I can get to wal mart.. I have a shirt that I bought with a design on the back.. and I want to put one of my own on the front... but I'm scared to until I get the process straight. Let me know what you find out!!

[Lorikr65]

Wow, I had to keep the iron on it for a lot more than the 15 seconds recommended. Only problem is (my stupidity) I used a dark t-shirt and you couldnt see the design. I did call the company because Michael's didn't have any specific for dark shirts and they said I could use them - didn't work. So I went back to Michaels and got another shirt (they were on sale for $2.33) and got some iron-on transfers for dark shirts at walmart and I'll try it again tomorrow. Anyone know of where to get iron-ons for dark shirts at a good price??

One last thing - on the iron-ons for dark shirts like printing on white paper? In other words, will everything show up?

Thanks for your help!

Lori

[Lorikr65]

I was using the june tailor print n' press. It seems like you just really have to have the iron on it for a long time and it needs to cool off completely. I just got the avery at walmart and I'm gonna give that a try tomorrow.

Good luck!!

[tink2020]

Hey, anyone heard from J&N's mom about the transfer sheets? Kate, are you here? :) I can't remember when you were leaving (a few days now?!) and I haven't been on in a little bit.

I'm in NO hurry.... I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything! Enjoy your trips, those of you traveling soon!

It will be just like printing on white paper and you do not print the image in reverse. What you see coming out of the printer will be exactly what you get on the shirt. I've used the Avery many times and have had no problem with them.

You are all so creative :worship: Do any of you have anything that relates to the Pirate Cruise from the GF? We are surprising DS 6 with this and wanted to leave some sort of invitation on his pillow. If any of you have any sort of logo that I could add some personalized info (his name, date, time) I would print it out and us is as an invitation instead of on a shirt. That would be too much for me :confused3

[julia & nicks mom]

Hello!!

we really liked Fever Pitch - although I had to listen to DH talk about his first game and how much he loves the Reds (yes he is a glutten for punishment!!!!) and get his version of Red Sox history!!

I put the transfers in the mail today to everyone except Triple Figs, Tink2020 and two others (sorry I forgot who) - one is shipping to Canada and the other 3 weighed enough that it will be cheaper to put them in a flat rate priority mail envelope than to pay regualr postage - I had no idea transfers would weigh so much!!!

So everyone should be getting them in the next few days - then I expect to see the finished shirts thread grow!!!!!

[Lorikr65]

I can't wait to print my husbands shirt tomorrow. It's the tie-dyed looking one with grumpy that says "keep back 200 feet" and I will put it ont he back of his shirt (you know how some people in disney are right between your cheeks in line!!)

I did notice that the Avery ones tell you not to reverse the print. It mentions something about a template. Do you have to do that or do you just print it on the sheet. I've been using "paint" and I just make sure it's all OK. I'd hate to mess even 1 up. I paid almost $10 for 5 transfers.

Does anyone know if I should use the dark shirt transfers for yellow shirts? They are the color yellow of this smily :cool1: . I'm thinking I should just to be on the safe side.

thanks again for your help!

My DH is adopted so our kids are the only blood relatives he has "


I am also adopted - at three weeks old - and I'm now 42. I don't know too many people that are adopted. It just wasn't spoken about when we were growing up. Nice to know I'm not alone!!

[triplefigs]

Hi, all! Just walked in the door from our LOOOOONNNNNGGGGG day (did the visit all in one day to avoid having to spend the night...). DH's grandmother has Alzheimer's and now her kidney is working at 50%. We spent 4.5 hours at the hospital today with her, and she never even woke up. DH feels good that we made the trip, just in case.

My family in Houston all evacuated safely to Waco, TX and should head back to Houston in the next day or so. Don't expect any damage at all- thank goodness! And my parents are spending the weekend with my Brother and SIL in south MS helping repair the roof. Seems like it's all getting better!

So, thanks for the prayers and good wishes. DH and I are heading to bed. We drove over 7 hours today with the kids and then spent the rest of our time at the hospital, so we're exhausted.

Night!

[KMH1]

Well, took a shot at Kate's character names to use for the back of our shirts. Here they are:

I do all my printing from "paint" too. When you go into "page set up", select in the lower right in "scaling" .."fit 1 to 1 pages". Then do a print preview to make sure it's all on 1 page. That should work. You do not have to reverse the image for dark transfers & yes I would use dark transfer paper on any color shirt (except white)even a light color. Good luck, I hope the next batch come out well!

I have no crafty bone in my body at all. But I want that on a shirt!!!!

so if the instructinos say to print standard orientation, does that mean dont do the mirror image...even if theres words on the image? i just dont want to mess these up!

If you are doing yout transfer with dark transfer paper on a colored shirt you don't have to reverse the image. "Standard orientation" would mean to me that you do not print reverse.

Thanks!

[JnEsWDWMom]

Gosh, have I gotten behind!! A week or two away and I'm pages and pages behind. Catching up has brought smiles to my face and tears to my eyes. I'm so glad you are all still here, sharing and looking out for one another. All the new designs are fabulous!! Especially love the Snow White ones. My dd is dressing up like her for Halloween. I've got the shirts and the transfer paper for our Christmas/birthday trip but I'm kind of scared to put them together just yet. My husband's parents are going with us and I'm afraid they will cancel at the last minute. Still debating about the color of my birthday shirt. I'm wearing J&N's mom's Treat me like a princess design which is mostly pink. Kind of leaning toward a lime green one. I don't like white. I stain too easily. Has anyone done one? What color did you use? Thanks and I'm never staying away this long again.

Is one transfer paper better then another so the white does *not* show up? I am doing on the back of the shirt, it's all black and white (photos and text). I'd prefer the white not to "print".

Thanks so much. I am going back to page 95 and plow my way through. I am really enjoying your creations!

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Kate,

I love the Canadian Mickey Head. Would you be able to do the Canadian Mickey Head and an Australian Mickey Head and then Mickey near the Canadian Head and Minnie near the Australian head?

DH is Canadian and I am an Aussie - that would be cool. Should I PM you a request?

Thank you for my other designs, I have printed them but not ironed them onto t-shirts. When I do I will post pictures.

well.. I fignally figured out what my problem was with the transfers (after I went out and bought the avery ones LOL).. my iron wasn't hot enough :rolleyes1 LOL.. I just wanted to smack my self in the head :) now that I've figured that out I'm trying to decide which one washes the best before I put it on my one "important" shirt.. the one I bought with a design already on it on the back.... Once I can figure out how to post images on here I'll add pics of all the shirts I've done... I did 3 tye dye shirts so far... and 2 transfer shirts have been done... now I need to get more t-shirts :).. still hunting for white tank tops.... I have another design request ASAP Please!!! I'm going to CRT the day after my birthday for breakfast with "royalty" :cool1: I'd love a birthday shirt with the princesses on it... something that says it's my b-day and i'm celebrating it royalty style or something like that???? I'd love to see if anybody has something like that
THANKS... without this board I never would have had any t-shirts

[Atotty]

For those of ya'll who have already made your shirts, which is more durable Avery or HP? Having done shirts many times (Girl Scouts, bday parties, etc.) I have never come across transfer paper that holds up well and I really need some suggestions. But then again I haven't bought any paper in about two years so it may be better now.

Also, we're printing on white shirts, do I get the dark shirt paper for a "richer" looking color, but then have white around the artwork that may or may not be noticeable or get the transfer paper for light shirts?

Thanks!!!!

Check out my website - I have several princess ones like that and I can customize any wording

[Lynn4Mel]

I bought the Avery transfer paper for dark shirts and I like the way the pictures came out alot better than the couple I did on light colored transfer paper.

I too am wondering how they wash afterwards. I am going to go with flipping them inside out, washing on cold and hanging to dry. And I'm not going to do it until everyone has worn their shirts! So I don't end up sobbing all over a possible mess :rotfl2:

I also bought a bunch of the Hanes 50/50 shirts at AC Moore this weekend (were on sale for $2.49) then I needed another white youth one so I found that at Michael's for $3.49... the one from Michael's is a Jerzee's brand and the t- shirt was a little bit thicker. I thought was nicer... especially with a white t-shirt.

Ok. We weathered Rita well, although she put me waaaaaaayyyyyy behind schedule. We leave Thursday. I had planned on working on my shirts this weekend, but ended up working at the Casino/Hotel I work for. Our power went out early Saturday morning. The hotel gave us a room, but I earned it. So many people called out and did not come to work. My DD's 11 and 8 and I rolled silverware for the buffet. Later I even ended up busing tables for a couple of hours. Never done that before and have a new appreciation for those that do! Hard work.

I was able to get one shirt done and it turned out really well. It was the Polynesian Princess design I posted a few days ago. My DD's loved it. Will post pictures later. One down 12 to go!

the dwarf designs continue to look great! i just wanted to point out, though that the mattress brand is spelled "posturepedic" .... in case anyone that wants the design is concerned!

Keep them coming, they're wonderful! :goodvibes

The dwarf designs are great! Glad you weathered the storm OK, 4myGirls. We did OK here in Katy, wind, electricity on and off for a few hours. PD and prayers to those east of us who got what we thought we would.

[cassi06403]

The dwarf designs are all amazing... I look forward to seeing new ones every time I come on.

Prayers and PD :wizard: to those affected by the big storms this season. I hope all is well and there is no more to come. I try to keep a balance between staying informed on what is going on down there and keeping my mind on things that are going on in my own life.

My goddaughter (age 1) just recently went through open heart surgery and she is recovering wonderfully. We spent Wed at the hospital during the surgery and we went back to see her Friday. She is slowly returning to her normal self! She is at home now and we hope to go see her tomorrow evening. Please keep the little princess: in your prayers.

I started packing last night! :banana: I've never done a packing list before, but you guys have inspired me to give it a shot. Hopefully it will mean less stress - which would be a good thing! :)

[Tammi67]

Kate! Kate!:wave2:

The transfer paper came in the mail today! Thank you so much. Now, just a few questions.....Do you know what brand it is and do you think that if you have some time you could post, pm, or email the instructions that go with it? We have all learned how important those pesky details are. Has anyone tried them yet? How are they holding up?

[lovesdumbo]

This is my busy time at work and I haven't been around here much. I got caught up on the 80+ pages I missed over the weekend. All the designs are amazing. LOVE the dwarf ones!

I bought a craft magazine this weekend and it had instructions on how to decropage (sp??) comic strips onto plain white canvas sneakers. I was thinking it would so cool to do that with some of these great designs. When I get a chance I'll see if the magazine has a website or maybe I could scan a few of the photos. I suppose it would be better to actually try making some and post photos of Disney sneakers but I know I won't get around to doing that before my trip in 17 days. :earseek: Like I said this is the crazy time at work for me but then I get to take a vacation. :teeth:


cassi-I've been meaning to tell you how beautiful that precious little girl is-she makes me smile everytime I see her photo. She is absolutely in my prayers.

Gotta get to work now!

[Brendita]

Hi Everyone,
Had to finish Halloween costumes.
I will post pictutes later.
I'm very proud of how DS costume turned out.
Glad to hear everyone is safe after the last storm.
I love the dwarfs car designs.
Maybe we can get a few more of the DH's to wear these shirts.
That all the designing women have made.
No affense Kevin.
I keep hearing my DH won't wear 1.
Mine will but he's not going.
He's @ DL right now on business.
The dwarfs shops are to cute.
Well DH is out of town for 3 days.
Also it's my day off.
As I have spend my Summer here.
Now I HAVE TO clean my house. :sad: :scared1:
I'll be back.

By the way does anyone have a Sea World design.
Just found out DD got 4 free tickets.
Miltary promotion, she is active AFR.

[4myGirls]

I can't decide if I want to just use this alone or if I should put the pouting Tinkerbell on the front with the wording, "I'm not hungry" and this on the back.

I have directions that I need to scan and post for you all - I just haven't done it yet - I am swamped today - I actually have a job :faint: it is part time planning religion classes at church but our teacher orientation is tonight and I have been frantically getting ready for it - something - although I can't imagine what it is :rotfl2: - caused me to put it off until the last minute!!

I thought this was to cute funny. :rotfl2:

Hey wonderful searchers, I'm looking for a clip art of the crossed checkered flags what would work well with the Even Mickey Loves...Nascar series.

2 good friends are wearing theirs to Talladega this weekend.

Thanks in advance!!

Could someone please take the 3D Golden Mickey ears (50 years) and shrink it so I can use it as a luggage tag? I tried shrinking it, and was unable to. THANKS!!

I just caught up on the pages I missed while I was away. I am so-o-o-o-o-o-o glad that everyone seemed to come out OK with Rita.
Triplefegs, I am so happy you made it to see Grandma (I lost mine this summer and we did not make it in time :sad: )

All the new designs are fabulous!! We are now under 30 days before we leave ( :banana: ) so I need to figure out all the colors and sizes for the wonderful shirts that you all designed so I can get them ordered.

Just wanted to check in and say hi and keep cheering on your creativity!!! :cheer2: :cheer2: :cheer2:

Momof2 makes them with your favorite driver. I have Tony Stewart and Jeff Gordon. It says "even mickey loves (driver)" and then it has Mickey hanging from the back of the car. Let me know if you want me to post them (if I can figure it out). And if it's ok for me to post someone else's creation!!

GREAT DESIGN!!! yea minnie looks much better than tink....plus it looks awesome now without the white lines :earsboy:


i was thinking of making this shirt for my friends but realized we r doing Goofy's Kitchen in Disneyland....is there anyway to incorporate Goofy into the design? If not, no worries!! they still came out great!

[KMH1]

Did the front of our and our friend's t-shirts last night. They turned out great except for the first one that I burnt a little. I'll probably re-do it tonight. Pictures will come after the trip (less than 4 days away :banana: :banana: ). They'll look much nicer with the appropriate backdrop.

Now, I need some advice ... I am putting our character names on the back of the shirts. How do you iron the transfer on the back without affecting the transfer on the front? I did a test with a small cutting board last night. But the cutting board could not stand the heat of the iron and warped. I don't think I have anything else small enough to fit inside the shirt. Can I simply iron on the back without putting something in the middle of the shirt? Will this affect the front transfer? Anyone with experience, please let me know. I really don't want to ruin all my work from last night with trial and error. Thanks.

Kevin

[tinknme]

I think someone had posted that they used their ironing board to iron on both sides. Put the t-shirt over the ironing board so the top transfer is hanging underneath. I think if you iron the back with the front transfer directly underneath getting heat it might ruin it. Did this make any sense :rotfl:

I washed one of my shirts and it cracked too, I just used one of the paper sheets that come with the transfer paper and ironed over it again and they looked just like they did before I washed it.

Hope this helps.

[tinknme]

I will give that a try & see if it helps, thanks!

When I did our Dwarf auto shirts I used the folded pillow case that I was ironing on and slipped it into the shirt between the front and back, but be very careful not to have any wrinkles in any of the layers as it will leave a crease in the design. With my little kids shirts I did not put anything between the layers, but made sure there were no wrinkles and they came out fine too.

Gee....what could it have been.....:scratchinan upcoming WDW trip, perhaps??? Or what shirt to wear on which day??? Am I getting warm??

Thank you for the directons to both you and ellenbenny for the instructions

And to all of you leaving in the next few days, :wave: have a terrific trip and let us know how everyone reacts to your shirts.

[Brendita]

Here is how you do both sides.
Follow the instructions as list on transfers.

Put the ironing board up.
Wood cutting board layer that with a double sheet or pillow case.
Slip the shirt through letting shirt hang down.

I used my big pullout cutting board from the kitchen.
For all my transfers.
You do need to put the pillow case.

So your layers are.
Cutting board, pillow case, shirt, transfer, transfer tissue paper.

Hope this helps.

[Laurabearz]

I HAVE NO FORMICA!!!! And I have to do the shirts today!!! (We leave tomorrow!!) HELP!!

Can anyone suggest something else to place the shirt on to iron it? I have wood floors... could I layer a couple of pieces of cardboard on them? I have some sections of peel and still tile... would that work???? All my countertops are granite and I wont use them.... I have some tiled floors, but I am worried about them cracking with the heat!

HELP I need ironing tips!!!!

Laura - do you have a wood cutting board?

what about in your bathroom? any formica there?

do you have a basement - with a concrete floor? or what about in the garage? - just put a pillowcase under it -what is your kitchen table like?

those are my thoughts - maybe someone else would have a better idea

Have fun! How old are your boys? I would love to take the kids to WDW for spring break, but it would be by myself. They are such good kids, mind me, listen. I know we'd probably be ok, but I'm just wondering what age would be the best for a solo mom and kids trip? They'd be 5.5 when we'd go in April.

I haven't seen the chip costume, but I would think that you could use hula hoops to make the frame and use a lightweight fabric for the "cup". I'm sure that he would also be cute as cogsworth or lumiere (or maybe hubby). How about Nick as the prince. That could be made with light weigt fabrics.

Well, just get Julia to ask him. Seems she got him to wear the t-shirt.......;)

I see a Halloween costume coming on.............

[triplefigs]

I haven't seen the chip costume, but I would think that you could use hula hoops to make the frame and use a lightweight fabric for the "cup". I'm sure that he would also be cute as cogsworth or lumiere (or maybe hubby). How about Nick as the prince. That could be made with light weigt fabrics.

Deb

Cogsworth should be pretty easy to make. Double cardboard body (like those signs people wear), paint the pendulum on the body, paint his face with the clock hands, and put a brown hat on! Have him wear a yellow shirt and brown pants.

For Lumiere: yellow shirt and pants, wear a white hat and put a felt flame on top (and put a glowstick behind it so it actually glows). He could hold flashlight for the hands (so they'd light up).

[Laurabearz]

Just popping back on to say the cutting board worked like a charm!! The shirts look great! Thanks for the tips Nick!!!

I will post pictures of the shirt after our trip! Thanks again!!!!

[only1t]

I got the paint at A.C. Moore. The brand is called tulip (I think)

The spray paint was much easier than tie-die. Plus I don't sew.

Will you be wearing this when you go trick-or-treating, since you're not going to MNSSHP?

I guess I need to go buy a wooden cutting board today, since we only have plastic ones. This t-shirt thread has proven to be expensive (but definitely worth it!).

I am :rotfl2: thinking of you sitting around Dising, wearing that costume. You know Julia is going to make you wear it all the time!!!

Perhaps you will don it when we come over for game night (I'm sure Steve will tell me what your favorite "beverage" is...) :rotfl:

[4myGirls]

I so wish I had someone to have Game Night with! :(

[Shriva]

You might get alittle more definition to the mickey head if you use a stensil for that part?

Basicly cut out the mickey head from a sheet of posterboard, put it over shirt and spray the head.. then do the rest of the shirt free hand?

Looks good though.

[Shriva]

Found another site you can use to see what the designs will look like on the shirts..

Has diffrent colors of shirts so you can see what color would look best for the design you want!

http://www.zazzle.com/design/shirt/default.asp

You don't have to buy anything... Just use it to get an idea on what the shirts will look like before you make them yourself!

EDIT: interesting.. you can then email the shirt design to yourself and save the pic.. only does it in white though.. i tried emailing the shirt in red.. but got this one..

http://i12.photobucket.com/albums/a205/Shriva23/designall.jpg

Oh be careful what you wish for! :rolleyes:

We had some friends over for a game night a few months back and my DH won every single game that we played! :rolleyes: And we're talking about all different games for hours and hours! We were so worried they wouldn't want to hang out with us anymore! :rotfl:

But we all went bowling not too long ago and he didn't win at that! But boy did I have the lowest scores....

Just call me Queen of the Gutterball! http://www.redhotsweeps.com/forum/images/smilies/queen.gif

[Shriva]

i posted along way back another site.. cafepress.com

They also print your designs on shirts..

I THINK they might be alot better quality then the iron ons and last alot longer (like a normal store bought shirt)

But i'm afraid to try.. lol

I'm going to search the web and see if i can find feedback on someone who bought shirts from them and see what kinda quality they are..

Cause what does it cost for an iron on?

Average for a shirt and transfer?
$3 shirt and $2 transfer sheet?
and how many washes does it last?

[ladylucca]

They won't print them because of copyright issues

[Shriva]

ahhh, bummer..well still good to see what they look like..

[triplefigs]

ahhh, bummer..well still good to see what they look like..

somebody else suggested printing out the design, taking it with you to the store, and holding it up to the different shirts to see which one looked the best.

Hi all...

Quick note...at WDW now!! HOT HOT HOT...but so far light crowds. Enjoying wearing the different t-shirts. The most attention so far we have gotten is from the t-shirts that I incorporated our actual pictures onto. People wondered where we bought them. Off to the pool...

We did a variation on this using the spray paints for our kids shirts this last trip. We made a paste of flour and water (about the consistency of mustard). We put it into a squeeze bottle and outlined a medium sized Mickey cookie cutter on the t-shirts. We did several outlines on a shirt. Then we put the shirts in the sun to dry. A few hours later, the paste was hard, and we took the spray paint and painted the shirts (red and blue for the boys, hot pink and lime green for the girls). Once the paint was dry, we scraped the flour paste off the shirts and there was a really sharp Mickey outline in the paint. It looked so cool!!! The kids were thrilled with them. :Pinkbounc :banana: :cheer2: My sister and I got the idea from the July Family Fun magazine. It was so easy we even let our 6 year olds paint and there wasn't too much mess. :rolleyes1

If I knew how to post pics, I would do it, but take my word for it, they look great and they last through the wash cycle. :teeth:

I just returned from DL where I picked myself up a Mickey antenna topper with sparkly gold ears. It makes me so happy every time I get in my car! :earsgirl:

I wanted to get more, but DH says I only have one car and it only has one antenna. But look how many holidays there are, and I could change them around. Oh well, something to start collecting each time I go. I REALLY like the Goofy one.

Have fun! How old are your boys? I would love to take the kids to WDW for spring break, but it would be by myself. They are such good kids, mind me, listen. I know we'd probably be ok, but I'm just wondering what age would be the best for a solo mom and kids trip? They'd be 5.5 when we'd go in April.

Okay I have transfer paper for light colored shirts. I have white shirts. Now I read something about the tissue paper or some type of paper to use over the top of the transfer when ironing. I did not get anything with my transfer paper. Is this what peels off the back of the paper after you iron it on. If so should I keep this in case I have to re-iron it. I have been reading this thread from the beginning and love all the designs. We are not going until october 2006 but I want a disney shirt NOW. LOL

Thanks for the help.

I believe the tissue paper is for the transfer paper for dark shirts. Read, and then reread, the instructions that came with your paper, and then follow them to a T, and you shouldn't have any problems.

[dumby]

Thanks Tammie67. I was getting worried there for a minute. My instructions does not say to reverse the image but I am sure I need to. I got this paper off of ebay and the instructions that came with it look real similar to what J&Ns mom posted except for mentioning to reverse the image. I am going to reverse the first one and see what happens. :worried: :worried: :worried: :confused:

I just had to throw in... I just ordered a shirt from zazzle last week... and got it nice and fast... the shirt quality is great... have already washed the shirt to get it ready to put a custom design on the front.. and it washes well.. no faiding or cracking yet :cheer2: (washed inside out).... if anyone has any ??'s feel free to ask... also, i have a free shipping code i'll give to someone if anyone wants to order.

How is the print? Is it like an iron on? Or more like what you would find on a store bought shirt?

I'm looking for a less plastic feeling.. and also looking for it to wear better after washings

Is it like screen printed on the shirt?

Hehe... last one..

On a scale of 1-10 with the iron ons being a 5...

These are from Glynis Neves. Kate made the one design for her. The rest are using the technique from Family Fun magazine. I think they look great and way easier than tie dye! going to try this with my trio and use red and green paint for Christmas!

I'm more of a lurker on this board -- love reading all ya'll's ideas! -- but I have to tell you that I'm in the middle of doing the tie-dye mickey head shirts for our family trip (we leave Monday). I can't wait to see how they turn out!! Thanks for the idea and instructions!

it's very good.... very similar to a store bought... the only comment that DH has was that it is off centered.. which is probably my fault since you can move the images and I didn't move mine at all. I'd say it's probably a 8 or 9.. it did fade a bit when i "prewashed" it inside out... but it's just slight fading.. I added my own iron-on transfer to it tonight... turned out good... I'm going to take pics of all my shirts tomorrow and I'll see if i can't get them on here so everyone can see. Still trying to find somewhere where I can buy tank-tops and t-shirts for cheap so I can make some more designs :) :smooth:

These are from Glynis Neves. Kate made the one design for her. The rest are using the technique from Family Fun magazine. I think they look great and way easier than tie dye! going to try this with my trio and use red and green paint for Christmas!

Wow, how neat! I'm going to have to try those too!!

J&N's Mom,

What about using a pillowcase for a chip costume. Plan on slipping it on Nick like a sleeping bag except the closed end will be put over his head. Cut a hole at the top of it and slip it over his head. His head and neck will stick out. Put eyes on it and a mouth. For a handle maybe get some flexible foam or plastic pipe. Have him try it on so you know where to place the mouth, handle, etc. Cut out holes on the side for arms. Make the bottom purple, with yellow. Either use paint or fabric. If you wanted right above the purple you could. fold it over a bit and baste stitch it and cut a hole at the back, put a string in and gather it this way you could stuff it a bit if you wanted or you could just let it hand lose at the bottom. If you have any questions you can PM me.

After reading about the tie dye, I was worried about the amount of paint we'd need for these shirts, but I was pleasantly surprised. We still have most of the bottles left over and we did 10 shirts. I'm planning on doing some sweatshirts for Christmas for my kids using this technique. It was fun, fast and easy. All good things in my book!

Sounds like a road trip for sailors_wfe, Tammi67 and me from Virginia. :moped:

[Steamboat Marti]

Seriously - where do we all live? Is there anywhere we could all reasonably get to for a girls weekend? Or we could all just go to Vegas!! Now those would be fun shirts to design!!!

How far is Cincinnati from Western New York?? I live in a suburb of Rochester, NY, one hour east of Buffalo. I've been know to drive long distances for some silly things!!!!

I say we should all leave the husbands and kids and get together , in gasp, Disney World!!!!!!!

[ScoJo15]

Those look really good. What kind of shirt is your DD's? It looks fitted?

I found it in the blank t-shirt section at Wal-Mart! They are really great quality and were very comfortable!

[itslisa]

I have GOT to remeber to check this thread every day! You guys just keep on going. :)

I see that a few of you have gotten the transfers. I messed out on ordering, so I figured I might as well see how they are before trying to orer some myself.

Has anyone tried ironing one on yet?

And the other important question ... has anytone tried WASHING with one on?

And .... anyone got any ideas on how to convince a friend that this is a really cool idea? (I did manage to convince her to order personalized ears before our trip!)

What the hay he's in D.L right now.
Me & DS 11 are here @ home.
Oh forgot it's a business trip. :rotfl2:

I still say dump the kids & DH.
WDW here we come.

I just finished cleaning my house top to bottom.
It's amazing what I can get done when DH isn't around.
Anyway I don't read this thread for about 24 hours.
I have about 10 pages to catch up on.
What's it going to be like when I'm @ WDW for 2 weeks? :scared1:

[rosiejo]

UM - didn't I tell you guys he won't wear a custom t-shirt - :rotfl2:

Ahh you did, but then you also told us that Julia changed his mind on that... so if Julia wants her Daddy to be the beast... you never know :goodvibes

[rosiejo]

OK - that could be any one of us!! Who of us DOESN'T have a mickey antenna topper????

Not me - I don't have one... maybe I should buy one this trip!
