***Disney Design Addict's Chit Chat,Designs and Pixie Dust! Everybody WELCOME!*** Part 3

[Steffy]

Miss missy…. Hope your feeling okay. So sorry about your car.

Disney-cruiser Welcome. Thanks for the info on the circle journal. Had never heard of one. You’ve got me thinking……

Denise… you did all of those beautiful Christmas shirts. You’ve got to use some of them!!

Marti So glad you are feeling better. Of course we missed you!

Kristen… yes it was an insane moment!! BTW, how did it go? I’m sure it was wonderful…


Even though I would like to go tomorrow, I really need to wait a bit and plan. Plus, I need to take my DGD with me. So I'll have to wait until May. Really. I have to wait until May. Even though I can get $118 RT airfare and be able to meet triplefigs and go to the MVMCP. And see the Osborne lights. :rolleyes1

Nope. gonna wait until May.

So I need to get cracking on the shirts. I''l start planning shirts for the May trip. And then the May 2007 cruise. :cheer2:

Okay, I'm stepping away from the credit card and logging off the Southwest website..... :p :bitelip: :bitelip:

[bear74]

Olivia really likes Brantley-Kate's "princsee" design. she also liked "mimi" aka mickey and minnie mouse christmas design. right now she is watching the Disney princess christmas DVD for the 4th time today I think. :crazy:

[julia & nicks mom]

Kate, I thought you were tired....and going to watch a movie??

[julia & nicks mom]

Kate, I thought you were tired....and going to watch a movie??


Turns out the whole 3 hours DH spent with the kids tonight (not alone with them - I was there too) just wore him out and he decided he wanted to go to sleep and not watch the movie - I wasn't quite ready for bed yet and would rather design than watch the movice alone

[eeyore74]

eeyore--speaking of migraines--I found out that Equal attributed to my number of migraines,,,since i stopped using it, they have lessened but now if I get near any really bad smells,,bleach, cleaning products, obnoxious perfumes I am down for the count :headache:

Ditto. I avoid all artificial sweetners. I blame my mother and her addiction to Sweet and Low. I am the same with cleaners, too - they kill me. Vinegar and baking soda are my friends.

PS... that eyeball picture was GROSS. If I have nightmares tonight.... :p

Yes - for medical reasons - it is okay - and you still are drinking a cokek product

the rest of you better produce some doctor's notes!!! ;)

I am DEFINITELY a Coke Kid. Cannot stand Pepsi. But I don't drink it often... does that still count?!?!? :confused3

[julia & nicks mom]

That is fine!!

Funny thing is - I really do hate Pepsi and boycotted them for years - but as I got older I let my hostility go -

when I was in college a Pepsi semi slammed into the side of my cute little jeep - crushing it - luckily he hit the passenger side and I was alone -

pepsi told me that I was over the a double yellow line and it was my fault (uh - yeah - my car was over a double yellow line AFTER a semi slammed into the side of it)

he was pulling out of a parking lot and a bus waved him out - I pulled to the side of a bus into a left turn lane - the truck swung wide to pull out in front of the bus and hit me

my insurance company paid for it but I think they sued Pepsi over it - it was clearly my fault and they refused to accept ANY responsibility - despite police reports to the contrary!!

[my3princes]

I worked tonight so my dh had the kids from 5 - 10:30. As soon as I got home he went to bed. I guess the kids wore him out too. Isn't it funny that we have them most of the time and aren't completely wiped out. That's ok it gives me more DIS time. I am however drinking flavored water tonight as I'd like to get to bed at some point.

my favorite is when DH goes to bed b/c he is irritated with me and he thinks he is punishing me!! :rotfl: No - just guilt free time on the DIS!!! :rolleyes1

[disneyeveryyear]

Kate,

My son really likes this design that you have done, but it isn't his birthday.
http://i18.photobucket.com/albums/b148/DisneyTShirts/birthdaydudd.jpg
Could I ask you to change it to say "Having a righteous time, Dude" ("time" in place of "birthday")? We are putting your other Crush design "woaaahh" on the other side of the shirt.

Would you like me to send you a PM?

Thanks, thanks, thanks!

[itslisa]

lisa - almost all of the shirts are in my t-shirt trip report - it might help you visualize what you want!

thank you! Believe me, I've read it ... re-read it ... and read it again for good measure! LOL

OK ... the truth is ... I fell asleep somewhere after 8 tonight and just woke up. Please tell me I'm not still dreaming?!?!?! I LOVE this design!!! Thank you SO much!


I thinkit's great how we have one design ... and then another DDA'er can take that design and add to it or change it some how into a whole new design. The collaboration on this thread is SO wonderful!


Thank you ALL so much for sharing your talents!

[Steamboat Marti]

OK all my fellow DDAs -- now is the time to get out the pixie dust. DH (Paul) finally went to the doctor today and now has a sinus infection. I don't know where he could have gotten that :rolleyes1 He's in bed now, rarely gets sick, and I KNOW he got sick because he was taking such good care of me. Could we all send a little PD his way? Send him a PM if you feel like cheering him up.

Thanks guys.
Marti

[Eeyorecln]

I appreciate all the well-wishes. Unfortunately, my surgery was on my stomach, so laughing hurts. It feels good mentally, but physically, ouch! I can't complain too loudly, though. I did this to myself. I just had gastric bypass. It was a really hard decision, but I really decided I want to be around to raise my kids. My mom just went through 7 bypasses, double knee replacement, and type 2 diabetes. I don't want to go through that. I've tried for 14 years to lose weight, and due to a medical condition I have I just can't lose. So this was my option. Once I hit my goal weight, DH said I can have the trip of my choosing. So, I'll be coming to you all for advice.

Sorry this is OT. Hope no one's offended.
Sending wishes for a speedy recovery. :grouphug: My mom had that surgery last year. I know how hard it was for her to recover. Best wishes and good luck to you and your family.

Uh oh ... the true test of a marriage ... when you get the other one sick!

But this is kinda freakin me out, why all of a sudden so many people getting sinus infections???? It used to be way more rare.

And are we passing it around on the boards? :confused3 I say no more :love1: allowed here!

Kate --

the transfer paper store on Ebay is : Heat Transfer Supplies
and the Ebay ID is : mariettaangie

And for the dark iron-ons, I want to select: HEAT TRANSFER PAPER / DARK COLORS 5 SHEETS / IRON ON

You passed on the "large" sheets - 11x17, right?

Is this all correct?

you got it!!

if it is cheaper - you could cut the 11x17 in half and have 2 8.5 x 11 sheets

[itslisa]

The thing is .. both DH and I are larger people. I made t-shirts for my son's birthday party a couple years ago. I used 8 1/2 x 11 sheets on the kids .. and they came out great, but on our shirts (2X & 3X) they looked lost. to fix that, I used one sheet for the main graphic and them part of another sheet for the wording below -- to make the overall design bigger.

DH is telling me now ... just sveon the shipping -- buy the 11x17 and we'll but them in half for Ben's

[disneyeveryyear]

The big questions is: will your printer hold 11X17 paper?

I thought about doing this, but my printer will only accept paper that is up to 8 1/2 or 9 inches wide.

[disneyeveryyear]

I just wanted everyone to see what Kate helped me do tonight.

DS wanted the "Crush" transfers on a shirt, but one wasn't appropriate since it wasn't his birthday.

Kate helped me and here is the outcome:

front:http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a194/disneyeveryyear/PB050017.jpg
back:http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a194/disneyeveryyear/PB050018.jpg

I think it looks great! Thanks Kate!! I owe you a six pack of diet coke! or a load of Wendy's certificates!

Waaahhhhhh I just checked the pecs on HP's website -- only up to 8.5 x 14 in

now I am confused. I got 8.5 x 11, is that ok for me? size med shirt ?

[itslisa]

OK ..... I'm off to bed and ..sniff sniff sniff ... won't be on tomorrow until later. Got to go to training to be a Cub Scout leader.

These are the same people that crammed 20 minutes of information into 2 1/2 hours! :sartcasm: ugh

[itslisa]

now I am confused. I got 8.5 x 11, is that ok for me? size med shirt ?

I'm sure it will be fine - just lay the paper onthe shirt itself .. and you will see the area it covers.

Kate,

Those are adorable!

Well, I finished my last three tie-dye shirts and I am now going to bed. We have a soccer tournament in the a.m.

Sorry about your CubScout training. My DH runs those here and he plays to a packed house! Just remember, it's for the kids!

[miss missy]

Well I am still at work... 13 hours now.. and I am sooooooo sleepy! I gotta come back at 10pm today ... the things we do for disney trips!

[MazdaUK]

disneyeveryyear could you pm me the design you did for the front - my DS(6) loves crush and I've got a T-shirt waiting for a picture to go in his stocking

Glynis can I count on you all to help me through the planning process?
You are talking to the planmeisters!! I LOVE bossing poeple about their Disney vacations....er... :blush: .... coming up with suggestions for a wonderful trip :guilty: :rotfl:

Suggest you avoid the dining plan though if you don't want to undo all your good work - seems from people's reports they give you more than you could possible need

Sorry - not ready to plan yet :guilty: :grouphug:

[tink2020]

Kate - didn't you read before that I have too many MVMCP designs already?! You all are killing me with your adorable new Christmas designs!! I'm just going to have to go for the next few years I suppose... :rolleyes1

Glynis - sounds like you made the right decision for you and your family! I'm so sorry your mom had to go through all of that, but I am very glad you have another option! Your kids will be so blessed for it.... You can do it! :cheer2:

Paul - feel better! :sick:

If I can get DH out of bed (a harder task than it seems.... this rotation is the first that he has had weekends off in MONTHS!) we have to go find a storage unit. Anyone good at guessing spatial things? How the heck am I supposed to look at a gaping, empty garage and see if my life will fit in it?! :confused3

Here's hoping it's quick.... we want to go to the Miami game (in my DDA-created shirt)! :cheer2: Should be studying though....... :rolleyes1

:) Don't let me stay on here too much today, I REALLY can't afford to! Have a great Saturday, everyone!

[poohangel]

very cool. love this one.

I finally made my first shirt. The Incredible I on a red shirt - it turned out great. I am really hooked now. I don't know how to post a picture, but could e-mail it to someone.
My question is
Do I need to wash the shirt after putting on the transfer?
Does washing it help it set?
I was kind of hoping I wouldn't need to wash the shirts again, since I pre-washed them.
4 days until we leave and 7 shirts to make

[Tammi67]

Turns out the whole 3 hours DH spent with the kids tonight (not alone with them - I was there too) just wore him out and he decided he wanted to go to sleep and not watch the movie - I wasn't quite ready for bed yet and would rather design than watch the movice alone
Dhs are funny, aren't they. Usually my DH works a late shift 2 weeks out of the month, so I get home from work, make dinner, clean up, shuttle the kids to whatever activities they have, do baths, books and bed, all while he is at work. Well, for the past month I have been put on a special assignment where I am working late, so now my DH has to do all that. After a week and a half he says to me "I don't know how single parents do it." HELLO! What does he think my life is like when he is at work?! Cracks me up.

Paul - feel better soon. I'm sure Marti will take as good of care of you as you did of her. I hear people blaming sinus infections on the change of weather. I don't where what is like where you are but here it has been in the 50's one week and the 70's the next. Our bodies can't keep up with the drastic changes in temps. Now Nurse Denise will prob. come along a refute this old wives tale. :)

I love all the new designs that have been posted. Great work everyone.

Please, tell your DH I feel his pain! I've had the same thing and am now celebrating week 2 with it! Just tell him NOT to complain about stabbing pains in his eyes on this thread.... '*** he'll get some really strange pics posted if he does! :earseek: I'd send pixiedust, but mine is probably infected.... so I'll just send best wishes for now! ;)

Just wanted to post a pic of the nine of us in our Halloween costumes. We went as Disney pirates.

We had a blast at the party and got tons of attention in these vests. We must have had at least 100 people stop and compliment us! We also got special pictures taken and had a lot of fun dancing with the singing pirates by POC. The individual pics are cool too but I don't have those available yet.

My MIL had the striped shirt and made a red Smee hat and wore her reading glasses. Smee fussed over her everytime he saw her!

Don't wash the shirt again... there really is no need and you don't want anything to happen to it in the washer. After your trip when its time to wash them, do so inside out with no bleach or fabric softner. Otherwise I think it lifts the transfer off the shirt.

Have a great time -- so wish it was us going again! I still have the post Disney blues!

How did you make the designs on the vest?

[MommyBoo!]

dumby - Thank you.

bear74 - I came up with the design ideas and DH drew them on the computer. We printed them out and used the printouts as stencils to cut the designs out of a stiff white felt (and red for the Minnie bows). We used NoSew glue to apply them to the vests and they stayed on. My MIL made the vests out of fake suede fabric.

They look great! Can I make one little suggestion though. Try putting "did someone need a hero" at the top and their name at the bottom. It kinda runs together this way. Just my thoughts. You do what YOU like. :)

By the way....how do you tell them apart??:confused3

I changed the design, and I agree. As far as telling them apart, I don't think they look alike. Guess I just know them too well. Rees' hair is a little darker than Davis'.

Great Christmas designs, I especially like the second one.

OH - and I agree the boys don't look alike

I just have to figure out who is who! :rotfl:

I think Rees looks just like BK though!!!

[MinnieMouseMom]

This calls for a pre-midnight, pre-maintanence DDA party. Who's in?


I'm in! I even have Diet Coke in the fridge! (Mine's the Splenda kind, hope it works ;) )

[bear74]

Kate where did you get Julia's princess outfits

[tink2020]

Checking in before the studying begins! maybe it's good that the boards will be down.... but 8-10 hours?!! goodness!

Denise - did you see all the suggestions a few pages back? There were some really cute ones! I'm sorry to all the original posters, but I don't remember who said what (The Good, The bad and the Heroes ... The boys are back in town....a few other really cute ones). I really liked some of them! Your other designs are adorable as well, though -- I espeically like the one with the character traits (Kate's design originally I think). And, BTW, I totally agree - Rees and BK look a LOT alike! All three are darling!

Disney Newbie - congrats to your sister! What a proud night!

Mommy boo - those vests are incredible! I can see why they got so much attention!

If anyone cares (namely Amy, as many of you probably didn't know there WAS a Miami in Ohio (although it was around long before that "other" Miami school ;) ) the 'Hawks won 55-13.... it was 55-0 until 6:00 left in the game when our second string went in. Although I was proud, I felt QUITE bad for those other guys :rolleyes:

THANKS so much, Kate. Not to sound picky, but who is the white Heffalump? Is it from a movie? Can the other Lumpy be put in its place?

Love BK's. She was asking how she got in the picture? And I love the boys names. Going to modify them now.

Also based on Kate's design. Kate, what font is this so I can add their names?

Thanks for the names, Kate!

[triplefigs]

Anybody know where or how I could make a colored flower pattern for the design I did for DD with the Princess outfits (instead of the frames)? I was thinking I could bend the text and turn it sideways and have the words be the stems of the flowers! Great idea Karebear1~

See, I told you I was slow tonight! I think I'm going to put that one on the front and the one with the reindeer and sleigh on the back of the shirt. They are both too cute to choose. Thanks for personalizing them for me. Can you tell I'm finally serious about shirts?

[julia & nicks mom]

Kate where did you get Julia's princess outfits

her Aurora costume is from kb toys
snow white, cinderella, jasmine and belle are from the disney store
ariel is from wal mart

Hey MazdaUK, I just noticed you are in the UK. Next to Disney that's my favorite place to visit. DH and I may be coming to your neck of the woods with my father in 2007. I just love traveling!!!!!

[triplefigs]

Kate,


Could you take your cool Family Magic Tour Design and put the kids pictures on it? No names. I may put their Disney Character names on the back.

Now can you tell which set of shirts I should wear to which park? MK, MGM, and Epcot. I'm also going to make them the name character shirts for one day.

Thanks!

[itslisa]

Sorry about your CubScout training. My DH runs those here and he plays to a packed house! Just remember, it's for the kids!
That was me ... unless Nick is gearing up for Tigers already. *smile* It wasn't bad. that last disctrict event I went to, they packed 20 minutes of information into 2 1/2 hours! It DRAGGED. Today moved along quite nicely -- got my little "TRAINED" patch and everything. :) Guess I CAN be taught .....



just so everyone knows!!


The boards will be going down tonite, Saturday at Midnite eastern time. They will be down for an extended period, possibly 8-10 hours for maintanence
I know -- don't shoot the messenger .. but are they KIDDING???????? What do they expect me to do -- clean my house?????

[StitchIsOurHero]

I love all of the new T-shirt designs! I bought a shirt today to put the Christmas design of just Lumpy on it, but now that I've seen the new ones, I'll have to go get 2 more shirts. . .you just can't have enough Disney Christmas shirts (especially ones with Lumpy!) :cheer2:

triplefigs--I love the shirts with your kids in costumes! Your kids are adorable!

I loved everyone's Halloween pictures, too! All of the costumes were great!

I can't remember who it was that had the pirate vests for their trip, but those are awesome! I'm thinking we could be pirates on our June trip just for the fun of it! :rotfl:

[miss missy]

OMG What am I going to do? No DIS boards? ARRRRUUUGGGGHHHHH


NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I am stuck at work again, bored waiting again NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I need to DIS!!!!!!!!!

[my3princes]

I didn't log on until nearly midnight. I worked until 11 tonight. It looks like the boards may be up longer than expected as I am still able to post. :cool1:

My dh has a request. We went to Beaches and Cream during our recent trip and shared the kitchen sink. Dh ate 75% of it himself. He says that on our next trip he wants to go back and eat the whole thing himself. If you do it in less that 1 hour it is free. I have no doubt that he can do it. He says that he will need a shirt that says something like "I ate the kitchen sink". I will try to post a photo of it tomorrow as I hope to get to bed soon. Thanks

I thought something must have gone wrong when I logged on this morning and only found 17 e-mails :rotfl: 10-12 hours down would explain it :rolleyes1

Glynis, if you're coming to London or the southeast we could have a mini DIS-meet! Are you going to sneak in a trip to DLP while you're this side of the Atlantic? Its about 3 hours on the Eurostar from London.

[cwnhokie]

Hi there,
I started reading the beginning of this thread and I am in love with the tie dye mickey shirts. I scanned through about 15 pages of the thread looking for someone to post pictures of the process. I just can't figure out how to do the folding. Has pictures of the process been posted? If it has I'll keep looking. Thanks

[DisneyCrazyX5]

Don't wash the shirt again... there really is no need and you don't want anything to happen to it in the washer. After your trip when its time to wash them, do so inside out with no bleach or fabric softner. Otherwise I think it lifts the transfer off the shirt.

Have a great time -- so wish it was us going again! I still have the post Disney blues!

Thank you. I was hoping this was the answer I would get. Adding wasing shirts AGAIN to my list of thing to do in 4 day s could throw me over the stress edge.
janell

[ReAnSt]

First you will need the dye. I got a kit at Michaels that came with the instructions, dye, squirt bottles, soda ash, gloves, and rubber bands. Get 100% cotton shirts. That is very important so that you get vibrant colors. Do not use Rit Dye – you will not get vibrant colors!

Take the shirt and draw a mickey head in pencil, on the shirt. I made a pattern on papper first and then traced along the edge. You will then "sew" the pattern. Use a needle and thread. I got a waxed thread at Michaels to make sure it didn't take up the dye. Sew a 1/4" - 1/2" basting stitch along the pencil line. A basting stitch is a very simple stitch that goes up & down through the fabric. Only go through the front of the shirt if that is where you want the mickey to be. If you want it on front and back. Do each side separtely. After stitching along the complete line, knot it, and pull it tight, so the fabric gathers in a bunch. Make sure the inside of the Mickey is poking outward. Pleat the rest of the fabric, so that you have a long snake like tube. The more careful you are with pleating the fabric along the length of the shirt, the better the final result. Go easy, and take your time. Wrap a rubber band around the threaded bunch. The tighter the tie, the more defined the outline of the mickey will be. Place remaining rubber bands in 1"-2" intervals along the rest of the shirt. It is a little hard to explain, but when you are done you will have a long snake. One end is the mickey on front of shirt and the other end it the back mickey. Through the middle is the rest of shirt (arms, neck etc.).

Then follow the instructions in the kit for preparing and dying shirts. The squirt bottles make it possible to get the specific color where you want it.

Now there are a couple of great ideas. My father is a semi-professional tour guide who really only puts tours together, and then finds professional guides in all the cities he visits. He takes a major trip each March. 2006, it's Greece and Turkey, 2007 it's England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Should be fun!

I would love to do DLP, but don't know if it's in DH's cards. I'm hard pressed to get him to go to the one in our neck of the woods. I've put a bug in his ear about WDW, and he's "thinking" about it, so we'll see. I hope one day to get him as converted as I am.

Welcome back Brendita....... just as I'm getting ready to leave! Hope ya had a great time- and we DEFINETLY want to see those pics!

Brendita! You came back! I thought you may stay LOL!

Let us know how it went, we want pics!!!

[Tammi67]

I just got back from Walmart. For anyone looking for long sleeved tees, they have 100% cotton ones at Walmart for just under 8 dollars. They also have them for kids too. I think they were $5. I bought mine in white but they had a variety of colors. They were mens/boys, so no pinks, etc. But they are nice quality, very soft.

So my shirts are in the wash and I am going to print out my Christmas design and get to trimming. I also got my tye-dye kit. Then I will print out various size Mickey head patterns and stitch the shirts. Starting to get into full-blown t-shirt making mode now. I will post pictures when I get some things completed.

Brendita - so glad you had a good trip. Looking forward to hearing/seeing all about it.

[triplefigs]

I looked at the 15 day forecast through 11/21 and the highs were in the 80's with lows in the 60's. I think I'm going to make all short sleeve T's and take some long sleeve stuff that we can layer underneath.

I've got to go get a few more white shirts and a new color cartridge, and then I'm ready to make mine too. Yippee! It's getting close now.

[Pooh67_68]

Welcome home Brendita. :flower:

Thank you so much for the link to the pics of the mickey tie dye shirt. That makes it much clearer. Now I just have to go to Michaels tomorrow. Wish me luck. This will make a great Christmas gift for our group of 12 heading down in Feb.

I know it is. How exciting! I am so anxious for you to be leaving on your trip, because I know that we are just a few weeks after you all.

I got long sleeved ones that I am doing for MVMCP. The rest of the shirts are going to be short, I believe, as long as the weather stays mild.

It was nice meeting you at MK. I am still soooooo jealous that you got to stay an extra week! Hope you and Minnow made good use of every minute of it. DH and I are already having withdrawals and talking about another trip (alone).

[miss missy]

Hi all ! I am here just like what the... my lil sis left today to move to Hawaii
:( I want to be happy for her, but I am so afraid she will meet her husband there and not come back! At her going away party, there was all men there!!! She is just one of those cool chics that meets people so easy!! I am like, one of these guys isn't enough??? :rotfl: Do pray she comes back soon. She said 2 years. I just hate it! She is the best aunt to my kids too... we NEED her!

Also, my oldest sis, who lives 3 hrs away, had her barn burn down yesterday! She lost everything in it, it's to the ground now. Poor Mom is like :rolleyes1

My van that was hit by the deer is more broke than we thought. It looked like it was gonna be driveble.. but I think something is not good, wheels feel funny. I don't have rental, forgot to add it when we got rid of the spare car. :confused3 Not sure what I am gonna do. WAAAA

On the good side, my 20 yr old son called me today and said something real nice to me. It was one of those, "wow, he is growing up" kinda moments, one where he realized a choice I made for him years back was best for him, that kinda thing. That was AWESOME!

So, hey, we are all alive, and ....... I am going to DISNEY in 3 weeks !!! :cheer2: :Pinkbounc :cheer2: :cheer2: :Pinkbounc I just gotta remember THAT!

How are you all?

The trip to Beaches and Cream will come up later in my trip report.

As I mentioned last night, we ate this kitchensink together (we ate 25% he ate the rest). On our next trip he plans to do it alone and I need a cool T-shirt that says" I survived the kitchensink" or "I'll eat anything including the Kithensink". You guys come up with some cute sayings to let me see what you got.

Cute story. I bought some halloween items at 75% off yesterday. One item was a light activated skull and hand. The skull's jaw moves as does one of the fingers. It is pretty cute. I had put it in our bedroom along with some other items that I need to move to the basement and forgot that I set it in there. Dh goes in tonight to change into is pjs. He drops his pants to the floor and we hear "Hey Buddy....Come here...You made my night". I thought we were going to die laughing. My dh wants to know what kind of a store I bought it in? It was timed exactly perfectly. I am still laughing as I type this.

That was so two hours ago. Oh wait for the rest of the country that is not in Eagles territory it would just be over. Although I can't watch Grey's Anatomy until after the game is over like 11:30pm or later. If I want to watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition it is not on until 1:30-3:30am. Craziness!

But next weeks episode looks very interesting.

I am watching Grey's Anatomy right now but switching over to watch the Eagles. EMHE was just great. I cry every week. Desparate Housewives was hysterical. Makes me want MORE :rotfl:

After watching the Apprentice on Thursday, and after last week, Steffy and I just want to know what are they going to do to make it last since the Donald had fired four?
And when Marcus was finally fired, did you find yourself looking at the TV and turning your head side to side like a dog does when you talk to it and you know it is trying to understand what you are saying? :confused3

[disneyeveryyear]

Karebear1 - I am also leaving in 6 days and I finished my last T-shirt today (31 transfers and 7 tie dyes) and did the majority of the packing for the 4 of us. I wanted to be completely done by tonight, but DH wanted to go out for pizza and who am I to say no? I plan to finish tomorrow after work.

I need to pull up one of my packing lists and see what I have forgotten. It has gotten to the point where it sems that we pack an extra bag of just food, supplies, an extra bag for souveniers for the way home, etc. I am not sure if I can pack it all in 2 bags, or if it will take 3. I hope 2. Then I need to start packing the bookbag.

Enjoy your TV tonight gals, I don't tend to watch anything on Sunday. Right now I am the only one awake in my house, and it is so quiet. I absolutely love it. Just need to grab a soda and start printing off my TGM lists.

Karebear1 and disneyeveryyear: Hope you both have fabulous trips!!!!!!! I'm headed to Michaels tomorrow for more white t-shirts. Got to get a color print cartridge too. And I need to wash the shirts. I think I'm almost ready to start printing and ironing! Still have to figure out what to iron them on (my counters are not formica).

At first I thought you said you had to figure out what you are ironing them with :rotfl2: and I was like duh an iron is normally what you iron with. Until I reread it.

Scrap Piece of wood, a cutting board, concrete outside, what about maybe putting paper down over top of an ironing board, cardboard in the middle, but it might burn, not sure what you have their, good luck :confused3

I don't know if we mentioned it or not - while we were in WDW (10/15-10/24) we saw them filming for Home Makeover... you know ... the show where Ty destroys then builds your house. They were in the garden to the left of the castle (the castle was the backdrop) and were watching a lap top. We saw what appears to be a mom and dad and some kids and the episode should air in Nov/Dec. I always wondered about when they taped those parts - know I know!

That's pretty cool - they were taping parts of the planning DVD when we were there - I am assuming this is what it was - Dave the relaxer adn Luke the thrill ride guy were there - Julia ran up and told them - you're in my video!!! :rotfl: They must have thought I was a nut - especially when she told him she watched it almost every day!!!

I ironed my shirts on top of my dryer. I'm only 5' 2" so I stood on a step stool to make sure I could apply enough pressure, but my shirts came out great!

Denise,

I used my stovetop. I have a flat top electric stove, and I figured it was used to the heat.

Here are a couple of tips:

1. do not overuse the parchment paper that comes with the dark transfer paper. Today I did and it scorched my design.

2. Use 100% cotton for the cloth underneath. I used old pillowcases that belonged to my great-grandmother. However, don't use anything that you cherish, but it will scorch your fabric like it did Kate's table. If I didn't have any old 100% cotton pillowcases, I would go to Wal-Mart or Hobby Lobby and buy some muslin.

3. The dark transfer paper looks great on a white shirt (if you are able to cut along the edge). It seems to really give a much nicer coverage than the light paper.

4. Wipe your iron down when you are finished, sometimes it seems to get a little residue and sticks a little when going back to your regular clothes.

Good luck!

I think the first one is Pete from some of the Goofy type things and the other one is Donald Duck, although I could be wrong.

I am so jealous of everyone going for Christmas. We were there last year and had a wonderful time.

[CindyBeth]

Can someone help me? We are leaving in 2 weeks for a girls trip! In fact, Julia and Nicks Mom did the blue map with the princesses for me. So Cute!!! I'm making these shirts for myself, dd, sil and niece. My sil thinks it will be funny for us to get pictures of us in front of different Ladies Room's in all the parks. And yes, my sil has a weird sense of humor!!!! lol ;)

So I was thinking of some sort of shirt that would be funny like Ladies Room Tour - WDW 2005. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!!!!

Cute story. I bought some halloween items at 75% off yesterday. One item was a light activated skull and hand. The skull's jaw moves as does one of the fingers. It is pretty cute. I had put it in our bedroom along with some other items that I need to move to the basement and forgot that I set it in there. Dh goes in tonight to change into is pjs. He drops his pants to the floor and we hear "Hey Buddy....Come here...You made my night". I thought we were going to die laughing. My dh wants to know what kind of a store I bought it in? It was timed exactly perfectly. I am still laughing as I type this.

Deb

GREAT picture, Deb!! With 8 people in our group, we couldn't get the kitchen sink THAT clean! Too much peanut butter.

And your story? TOO funny! :rotfl: That was perfect timing!

Did I mention to anyone that I am LEAVING for WDW in 5 DAYS!!!!!!

Wahhhhh... :sad: I wanna go too! I even had an PAP! The darn thing is burning a hole in my pocket.

Anyone know if you can iron on granite countertops? Would it damage or crack the granite?

[geetey]

I found the Disney print font and downloaded it from www.momscorner4kids.com (http://www.momscorner4kids.com/). But this is not the Disney font I was looking for. Can someone tell me where I can download a different font? I wish I could explain what I want, you guys have been using it. Help!!! :flower:

I sat hot pots directly on our granite so I wouldn't think ironing on it would do any damage. Now sitting a spoon down that has oil on it...well that's another story :rolleyes1

I see it now, Becky! Thanks! I was thinking Ursula (from Little Mermaid) for the first shirt. I couldn't tell what the other one was because I thought I saw THREE eyes! LOL! Now I see it is part of Donald's hat and the angle of the shot.


Now - last post for me tonight! I promise! :teeth:

Aren't I lucky I can edit my post....

DO tell about the oil spoon on the counter top! I am new to the granite thing!

Here are the photos of the Kitchensink as promised. For those of you reading my trip reports you know that I nicknamed my dh Kitchensink Guy and this is why:

and

http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/data/500/63925finished_kitchensink-med.jpg

The trip to Beaches and Cream will come up later in my trip report.

As I mentioned last night, we ate this kitchensink together (we ate 25% he ate the rest). On our next trip he plans to do it alone and I need a cool T-shirt that says" I survived the kitchensink" or "I'll eat anything including the Kithensink". You guys come up with some cute sayings to let me see what you got.

Cute story. I bought some halloween items at 75% off yesterday. One item was a light activated skull and hand. The skull's jaw moves as does one of the fingers. It is pretty cute.

That was just too funny! I almost fell off my chair.

[Steffy]

That was so two hours ago. Oh wait for the rest of the country that is not in Eagles territory it would just be over. Although I can't watch Grey's Anatomy until after the game is over like 11:30pm or later. If I want to watch Extreme Makeover Home Edition it is not on until 1:30-3:30am. Craziness!

But next weeks episode looks very interesting.

Becky


I had to DVR Desperate Housewifes. Watched Grey's Anatomy after the game. Now I've gotto get to bed so I can go to work....

[bengalbelle]

DO tell about the oil spoon on the counter top! I am new to the granite thing!
Let me preface this by saying I should carry a warning label any time I enter the kitchen :teeth: but we had just moved into our new house and while browsing through my Southern Living I found a recipe for Chicken Fried Steak that I thought I'd try to impress DH with. We NEVER fry food so I don't know what I did wrong but the steak caught on fire. No worries since that was my 3rd stove fire (well 4th if you count the time I spent the night with Libby and we burned down her kitchen trying to make donuts but I was only 7 or so, so I'm not sure I can be blamed for that one :rolleyes1 ) anyway I threw the oil coated spoon down on the granite so I could grab flour and towels to put the fire out and then we went out to dinner. It made a stain. It's hard to explain what it looked like, it just looked different from the granite around it. It was never really obvious and did kind of fade over time. I mentioned it to someone once and they said oil would stain it.

MommyBoo… love the pirate shirts!

Triplefigs…. I want to wear the shirts that Kate made for you for Christmas. Wahhhhhh

Disneycrazyx5 please don’t wash the shirts again until after you wear them! Mine turned out fine. I’ve washed each about 5 times so far. The little ones with Playhouse Disney has even been bleached! And washed in hot water! But be safe and don’t wash them until after you’ve worn them!!!

Brendita! Welcome home!!!

Karebear1 Enjoy your trip!!!

Miss missy…. Hugs. 3 more weeks and you will be in Disney. 3 more weeks and you will be in Disney.


Denise, you’ll be fine with short sleeved shirts. I was there after Dec 21st. Winter arrived in Florida last year… it was cold. You are going at the beginning of the month. It should still be warm. Plus, I’m not going to be there. Should be heavenly.

BTW, as a public service to people in the northeast, I bought a snow blower yesterday. No snow for us!!!

Ladylucca… you’re going to make me go to southwest.com if you keep on making nice shirts like that!!! Very nice. I want to go to the CP!!

Marti. Great you got to see that. I love that show!!

Kate 10,000 is near....

Still have to figure out what to iron them on

I used my ceramic stove top with a folded table cloth underneath (it was a smallish tablecloth so not too thick). I was really scared with the iron on full as that's for linens not cheap t-shirts, and did turn it down to just cotton setting, but everything came out fien. I've washed the pillowcases and I mighjt start them tomorrow - we have St Nicholas day as well (because DH is of Hungarian parentage) when the boys put out their welly boots and St Nicholas puts in sweets and treats if they've been good and sticks if they've been naughty. The kids usually get one or two sticks each, DH gets lots (but says he likes it like that :blush: :rotfl: ). I thought some Christmas - themed pillowcases would be a nice change from candy (and better for them!) and by giving them on 6 December they get to use them before Christmas.

I bet you're all in bed now and I'm here at work with flu :sick: because I have a meeting this afternoon. :sad2:http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/data/500/73452boystigger-thumb.jpg (http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=6611)

[PNO4TE]

I got up this a.m. and poured myself a cup of coffee, fully intending to be here for an hour or so to see who got post #10,000!

But it only took a few minutes to read since everyone was watching TV and going to bed early (myself included). So, tonight the race will be on, I assume.... :crazy2: :thewave: :hyper2: :thewave: :crazy2:

Also, I thought I had chosen my T shirt designs for next month and you all are still designing!! I have gently persuaded my family to wear 2 T shirts while we are there, but I don't think I can get them to do more than that. I know... maybe I will make T shirts for the 2 families from my school whose trips I helped to plan :cool1: Wonder if they would wear them??? :rolleyes1

That's what I thought too. I guess tonight will be the night.

Which designs are you making into shirts? I need to know what to be on the lookout for.

I love the new designs. Nicholas especially liked the CP one with all the characters. I so hope I don't need to buy more shirts. :confused3

Well I am off to help out in Kindergarten. I'll check in later today to see how close we are to 10,000.

here's a Monday morning chuckle

To Be 6 Again

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed,
observing his wife turning
back and forth, looking at herself in the mirror.

Since her birthday was not far off, he asked
what she'd like to have for her Birthday.

I'd like to be six again, she replied, still
looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her Birthday, he arose
early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six
Flags theme park.

What a day ! He put her on every ride in the
park; the Death Slide,
the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller
Coaster,... everything there
was. Five hours later they staggered out of
the theme park. Her head
was reeling and her stomach felt upside down.

He then took her to a McDonald's where he
ordered her a Happy Meal with
extra fries and a chocolate shake.

Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda
pop, and her favorite
candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure !
Finally she wobbled home
with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted.

He leaned over his wife with a big smile and
lovingly asked, Well Dear,
what was it like being six again ??

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression
suddenly changed.


I meant my Dress Size, you dumb *** !!

[karebear1]

Wahhhhh... :sad: I wanna go too! I even had an PAP! The darn thing is burning a hole in my pocket.

Did you download the Disney Simple font or the Walt Disney Font??

Becky


I think I found it last night. Thank you. :flower:

[karebear1]

Lady Lucca- I LOVE that new Candlelight Processional design you did. It's really cute and warm looking. Good job!

Disneyeveryyear- Isn't it nice to know the packing is done? I need to buy some extra batteries, and I'm having dinner with the girls I'm going down with on Wednesday night. I have to give them their surprise travel bags- which, by the way, are soooo cool! I'm really excited to see the look on their faces when they get this Mickey carry on packed with the following: a Mickey silouhette monogramed beach towel, their tie dye shirts, pillow cases and new DDA Designer luggage tags! I also bought them each their own box of ear plugs.... because I snore when I sleep and I don't want to wake them up! :)

Speaking of which......

Macintosh- we're you able to send off those iron on transfers to me? If so, do you know when they should get here? And.... are you ready for your trip? You leave this week too don't you???

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I leave in 4 more days!

[disneyeveryyear]

karebear1 - I love to know I am almost finished packing. I keep jotting notes though, things to add to suitcase, check DSs inhalers to make sure they are full enough to take, etc. I swear I am never finished until we step on the airlplane, and then there is always Wal-Mart once we get there.

I have given everyone their 3 T-shirts, put clothes out for everyone to put on Saturday a.m, checked on meds, etc. I am thinking of having the kids sleep in their T-shirts, clean undies and socks so all they have to put on is their shorts and hoodies. Our flight leaves at 6:00 a.m. so we have to leave home at 4:45 a.m. They are going to freak out with that. Hopefully we will all be to bed very early Friday night!

My BIL turned 40 on Saturday - being that I am only 33 - I had no problem harassing him - my DH will be 40 next year - and didn't want me to!!

anyway on SUnday he called to tell me he had to turn his air conditioning on in the car - they live in SC and I just replied - "so how does it feel on the way down the hill?" that was the end of the conversation!! :rotfl:

I already called DIBS on 10,000 like 2000 posts ago - doesn't that mean anything around here? :p

Don't worry - Kevin doesn't have to let Julia win - she once again beat us in Disney Trivial pursuit, The Disney song game and Disney Group Photo for game night Saturday - he does realize there are kids questions and adult questions and he has to use the adult ones! :rotfl: also Julia has already announced that she and Alyssa are going to win!!

That would be a dream come true to be at Disney on my 40th birthday. Our New Years 2006 trip will be my mom's birthday on News Years Day and all of us are going. She will have 9 grandchildren with her that day at Magic Kingdom.....she is very excited.

great idea!!!


If this shirt doesnot get noticed, I do not know what will. It is so cool!!!
Nice job! :flower:

[KMH1]

she will probably be aided in the fact that Nick's hot wheel mountain will be right there with his Disney cars - men seem to have a problem resisting the hot wheel mountain!!!

ooooh. A hot wheel mountain with Disney cars!! Is that how you plan to win -- by distracting me?

Transfer paper shipping today. Had to get envelopes from USPS and I got caught behind a few too many drinks this weekend at Nascar.

I didn't know you could drink 12 hours straight and not die. But this morning sure came hard.

Everything is being sent via Priority mail, so you should have it in two days.

Leaving on Saturday for "The World" getting excited. :banana:

That is too funny!!! I have to bribe my dd14 to wear it though, she is at that "I'm so cool" phase. On the other hand, me, my sil and my niece will have no problems wearing it! lol :flower:

I agree with you there! That is my dream, too. I have about a year to convince DH that he REALLY wants to take me for my birthday. I'm even sweetening the deal by saying we don't have to take the kids! Just the two of us, don't you think he'd go for that?!?

here's a Monday morning chuckle

To Be 6 Again

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed,
observing his wife turning
back and forth, looking at herself in the mirror.

Since her birthday was not far off, he asked
what she'd like to have for her Birthday.

I'd like to be six again, she replied, still
looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her Birthday, he arose
early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to Six
Flags theme park.

What a day ! He put her on every ride in the
park; the Death Slide,
the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller
Coaster,... everything there
was. Five hours later they staggered out of
the theme park. Her head
was reeling and her stomach felt upside down.

He then took her to a McDonald's where he
ordered her a Happy Meal with
extra fries and a chocolate shake.

Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda
pop, and her favorite
candy, M&M's. What a fabulous adventure !
Finally she wobbled home
with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted.

He leaned over his wife with a big smile and
lovingly asked, Well Dear,
what was it like being six again ??

Her eyes slowly opened and her expression
suddenly changed.


I meant my Dress Size, you dumb *** !!

I hadn't seen this one before. I love it!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

[MommyBoo!]

Once again, I am MILES behind, but I wanted to say that I LOOOOOOOVE this idea! How clever of you!!

I see Mickey, Minnie, Jack, Goofy, Stitch... but who is on the first (left) vest and the second to last vest?

ReAnSt is right. The first one is Pete and other one is Donald. We had to put the jaw on Pete, otherwise he looked like a cat. :teeth:

Pete's (http://stp.ling.uu.se/~starback/dcml/chars/blackpete.html) been around since 1930 and my fil requested him.

We had actually done a Winnie the Pooh for DD20months but it just looked wrong. The red bow on the Minnies was DD8's idea and worked out well with the design.

I forget who PMd me for this ..but here it is

Just beautiful.

[triplefigs]

I ironed my shirts on top of my dryer. I'm only 5' 2" so I stood on a step stool to make sure I could apply enough pressure, but my shirts came out great!

Good idea!

[triplefigs]

Denise,

I used my stovetop. I have a flat top electric stove, and I figured it was used to the heat.

Here are a couple of tips:

1. do not overuse the parchment paper that comes with the dark transfer paper. Today I did and it scorched my design.

2. Use 100% cotton for the cloth underneath. I used old pillowcases that belonged to my great-grandmother. However, don't use anything that you cherish, but it will scorch your fabric like it did Kate's table. If I didn't have any old 100% cotton pillowcases, I would go to Wal-Mart or Hobby Lobby and buy some muslin.

3. The dark transfer paper looks great on a white shirt (if you are able to cut along the edge). It seems to really give a much nicer coverage than the light paper.

4. Wipe your iron down when you are finished, sometimes it seems to get a little residue and sticks a little when going back to your regular clothes.

Good luck!

What do you use once the parchment paper is worn out? Thanks for the other tips.

[triplefigs]

I'm stealing designs from Kate! Thanks Kate! And Denise, your using it too right? Do you mind if I use it?

Wondering if this looks ok.. hmmm my baby is much bigger than you ladies babies. Does it look useable?

Beautiful DD!

[triplefigs]

I used my ceramic stove top with a folded table cloth underneath (it was a smallish tablecloth so not too thick). I was really scared with the iron on full as that's for linens not cheap t-shirts, and did turn it down to just cotton setting, but everything came out fien. I've washed the pillowcases and I mighjt start them tomorrow - we have St Nicholas day as well (because DH is of Hungarian parentage) when the boys put out their welly boots and St Nicholas puts in sweets and treats if they've been good and sticks if they've been naughty. The kids usually get one or two sticks each, DH gets lots (but says he likes it like that :blush: :rotfl: ). I thought some Christmas - themed pillowcases would be a nice change from candy (and better for them!) and by giving them on 6 December they get to use them before Christmas.

I bet you're all in bed now and I'm here at work with flu :sick: because I have a meeting this afternoon. :sad2:http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/data/500/73452boystigger-thumb.jpg (http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=6611)

Thanks for the tips and hope you're feeling better!

Denise,

It appears that the Tag Fairy made a special guest appearance this weekend on this board, but your poop patrol didn't get you tagged! Does that make you happy or sad?

Boo-Hiss to the tag Fairy. She needs to grab a Diet Coke and join the DDA as our mascot!

[PNO4TE]

Which designs are you making into shirts? I need to know what to be on the lookout for.

This one for certain:
http://www.wdwinfo.com/photopost/data/500/28340Xmas05Shirt.jpg

These two are in the running now:

I love the CP one too. But I think we will be more dressed up than that on Christmas Eve.

Which ones are you making, Tammi?

[PNO4TE]

I am using the new (to me, anyway) link to My Pictures found at the bottom of the smilies window to insert my photos. Those two first designs are HUGE!! :earseek:

great idea!!!

It's perfect! Can you put a border around it so I can put it on a lime green shirt? Do you think the words will look weird on that color?

Thanks so much. Oh, and could you add John, Michael, and Wendy back in flying overhead?

Love ya girl!

Thanks for editing the design. I really love it! And it saves me having to pack 3 costumes (aren't I sneaky)? They'll just wear them on their t-shirts! ;)

Can you buy parchment paper at the grocery store? I really want to get them done by this weekend because I'm decorating the house for Christmas this weekend!

[julia & nicks mom]

i don't know about ironing with something from the store - anyone else?

we better hit 10,00 quick - I have to leave at 3:15 and done with access for the day

[lmartin2711]

No, she gets it! Just trying to catch up. BTW, we leave 3 weeks from tomorrow! YIPPPEEE!
