Anyone else make Family T-Shirts?

[whoopnshoot]

Hello Everyone,
We are super excited about our upcoming trip. Part of the preparation is making homemade Disney shirts for the family. Does anyone else do this? It all started when I found a family picture of myself at about 8 years old, and we were all wearing the same outfits. It was pretty funny, so I thought I would carry on the family tradition. If you make shirts for your trip, let's share! Here are ours from the last three years:

Those are very cute!! Here are a few I made!!

FOr SIL, MIL and neice...

I never got a good one of us at AK. DH had a polo with a small Zebra Mickey head...

I matched the kids more than everyone.

If you go to the creative disigns part of this board you will find hundreds of people who do this same thing. You


might even get some great ideas for your next trip !!

we make them for every trip to wdw. Usually use iron on print designed from computer.... one year stayed at all star so made use words "all star vacation"
when we have had other family members with us usually do something to incorporate everyones name with a date....

Check out this thread for directions. I used Elmer's glue instead of the flour/water mixture. Very easy to make. We received alot of compliments on them.

I haven't tried it yet but the tie-dye ones on the creative dissigns board in the community section are really cool. I ordered the supplies and they should ship today. I can't wait to try them.

I have a friend of mine that does tie-dye all the time and she told me to order the dye not mess with the "craft" kits you get at walmart and craft stores that the result and long term lasting of the shirts you need better.

Like I said I haven't tried it yet but will in a couple of weeks (I have to wait for my highschool sons to get back from a mission trip, we want to do this as a family) I was thrilled that high school boys wanted to help make their own shirts.

http://www.dharmatrading.com/ is the company I ordered from.

I can't wait to see every one elses ideas. THe shirts posted so far are so cute.

We do this too! I'll have to try and dig up some of our old pictures. It is alot of fun and makes for super cute pictures!

I have done the mickey swirl and then most of the rest have been applique. We also do matching disney store hawaiian shirts, but not always homemade. Sometimes I'll make mine to match DH and DS.

That is hubby and DS5.

Here is one I did for me a few years back.

DS5, let me find me and DH. That one was alot of fun as it was late September and we wore it to MNSSHP.

DS has the same shorts as my shirt. I had made my shirt about 5 years earlier for me and my little cousin and have matching build a bear ones too.

Here is another from last month, DS's is below.
