I am so excited. I am going to start "gathering" things this week like mousekeeping envelopes, odds and ends I need to bring that I won't need betwene now and then, I need to make a wal mart run for stuff like sunscreen, a strap so i can wear my sunglasses around my neck, etc.

I have some GF postcards, I may send one to my sister and my parents soon with a countdown, I think they would like that

 

[heatherlynn444]

so i now have these great name designs I want to put on t shirts but havent got a clue!

also anyone else do anything cool with the name designs and not put them on shirts?

 

[heatherlynn444]

I was thinking luggage tags and shirts? anyone? ideas? thoughts?

I love the idea of postcard to your parents. I am sure it will add to the excitement of staying at the Grand.

I am sorry I do not have a creative bone in my body, but you might want to check the Creative DISigns Board for ideas on tag and shirt ideas.

i have the shirt designs, I have just never done iron on's before adn I am scared to mess them up. Somone on the boards over there was nice enough to make cool name designs for my whole family!

Heather, I plan on doing a full-blown trip report, so, yeah, I should have lots of pictures. But the rest of the fam is totally freaked whenever I try to take photos of food. I don't think they've quite caught on to the fact that in DISWorld, food photos are embraced by all.

I AM excited about taking Amy's boyfriend (well, as excited as I can be about any guy ) because it's his first trip to WDW ever. Poor kid just never got out of Laurel much.

Just a little more than two weeks for us. Yee-haaaah!

 

[MelissaFromRI]

I'm going to WDW in 16 days

I'd like to write a full trip report as well. I'm just not sure I could make it entertaining enough for people to want to read it

aw don't be so hard on the boy. You don't want him to think back on his first dinsey experience in horror! I mean if she stays with this guy you are going to want him to LIKE disney, right? haha! I can't wait to see pics!

I WANT him to be afraid of me! But, he went with us to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge over the Christmas holidays, and we did just fine. I didn't try to strangle him in his sleep or anything.

SO this w/e we experimented with iron on shirts. I admit, I was really nervous b/c I have never done them before but they were surprisingly easy!

YAY!!! They're not that hard, just follow the package instructions and have a hard surface to iron them on (wood board, table, etc.)

i was nervous at first but after the first one it was really easy! I still have more designs and I want to dos eomthing else but I am not sure what. luggage tags? I am at a loss.

I buy the 3M brand luggage tags, you can add stickers along with the address cards. (I actually print the address with my printer, then cut it small enough to fit in the card, then add stickers of your choice.) Simple inexpensive little gift for everyone.

thanks thats a great idea! can you get them at wal mart?

 

[Bondfan531]

I'm almost positive you can get those luggage tags at Wal-mart, Heather. Just look over there with the suitcases and stuff.

ok thanks. i may make them and then mail them to my family before the trip

Heather,
If you don't find the luggage tags at Walmart try Walgreens or Target. I shop at those stores more frequently. One year I did theme park tags, i.e. mine was MGM, my Mom's was Epcot. Another year I did Halloween stickers for our MNSSHP trip. This past year I gave my DSIL and her girls princess themed tags. They hold up well, and are fun to have.
Have fun creating your own designs..........
