20 Tshirts- 7 shirst for each of my children; 8 shirts for me; 5 shirts for DH (and thats pushing it with him)

I have been tossing around M&M tubes for penny's in my head but keep looking at my growing list and have decided to leave that alone for now.

To make, you will definitely want to print your license plate on cardstock paper. I highly recommend getting it laminated so that it will make it through your trip to Disney. You can buy a relatively inexpensive laminating machine at Walmart. You can also take it to be laminated any office supply store or copy/print shop. I attached mine with cable ties to the handle of my stroller. Make sure you don't tie it tight. You will want to leave some slack for it to dangle below the handle so that you can still get your fingers/hand around the handle. Hope that makes sense! If you have a basket under the stroller you can attach it to that as well, but I prefer it on the handle so that I could see it and quickly locate my stroller.

You can also use these for wheelchairs and electric scooters!

Hi Dolly --- I am thinking of using one of the family disigns from Tebi73 and putting it on the wheelchair. Do you know the size..or would you recommend taking one of the stroller signs and making it the same size.

I don't know a good size to recommend for a wheelchair. I would suggest (if you have the wheelchair) holding up a blank 8.5x11 sheet of paper over the area where you would hang the image. If you like the 8.5x11 size go with that...if not fold it in half and see if you like the smaller size. Hope that helps.

I knew I was addicted to making stuff a few months ago but I think my addiction is rising.

My original plan was to make 5 shirts for me, DS12 & DS5 and that was it.

However now, my plans have gotten much bigger. I'm planning to make:

Planning book for me and DS12
Activity Books for DS5 & DS12
Drawstring Back packs for each kid for their stuff in the car
5 shirts for me, DS12, DS5 while on the trip
More shirts for us when we get back.
1 shirt for my DDad and my DSmom (With the possibility of more)
2 shirts for DH
1 Welcome Letter
Candy treats
Magical Greetings boxes for DS5 & DS12 with their shirts, hidden mickey book, passports, autograph books and coupons.
Coupons & Passports for DH for drinking around the world
Invitations for every TS meal
Key chain for my bag with a large Green Mickey head to show I'm a Diser
Buttons for me and DS12 to show how many times we've been to go with the 1st time button for DS5
Thanks a Mint packages

And last but not least, I have Lady and the Tramp stationary for our dog for when she goes to Grandma's for the week.

HELP!

Hello!
Last year I made DH & myself 2 tie dye shirts, which we'll use again this year. We'll (me, my parents & family friend) also use the change purses from '09.

So far I think I am making 7 MNSSHP trick or treat bags & I've made my parents pillowcases already. Debating if DH, me & friends want them too & possibly Welcome cards for the 3 rooms. Oh, and Mousekeeping envelopes. Last year I made panties for mom & I for the day we left. Tink on the front & Never grow up on the back. My face thing so far.

Grand Gathering T-Shirts for everyone
Grand Gathering tote bags for 6 people

Dolly - You are awesome!

I love the gift tags but I'm a newbie...I've saved a tag from Natalie's shared folders but I can't figure out how to personalize them. It's saving it as a .jpg.

Any help is appreciated!!!

[mom2princesses2]

I found your post on how to personalize them...you ROCK!!!

Thanks so much!!!
