Hi, I'm thinking about making Disney ears to wear at the parks, I'm curious what do you guy's custom make to take with you ? :idea:

My sister and I are also making some custom ears!
We've already purchased some sling bags that we are "making over" to suit for pin trading. My sister is even going to embroider on them for us.

Also, though this isn't to actually go into the park, we made some custom pin board displays out of the little souvenir Mickeys that we got in DS this past June. We made little Cork boards (bordered in colored craft foam) for them to hold.

Hi, love the pin boards great idea. Would love to see a picture of the ears when they are done. I'm thinking of metal and bead ears as well as material ones.

I don't make them myself but I always buy custom ears to take. This year were adorable Steelers ones! Last year were custom Honeymoon ones with our wedding colors and minnie and mickey kissing on them
 

I make custom outfits so my son and I are all matchy matchy and themed for the park of the day.
 
I make my own park bags to take on my trip. These were my bags from last year. I'm making new ones for my trip this year. I've made ears in the past, but I found that I don't like wearing them.

For this trip coming up, I took a red tank top and some fabric paint, and I made a Lilo tank! I plan on wearing it for my Ohana breakfast :) I wish I crafted more stuff for this trip but I do love seeing everyone create beautiful things for this trip :)
 
I never got ears as a kid so I wanted them for this trip- but the prices were so high I did decide to make my own. I can post some photos later, but I had a lot of fun making them and it's cool to have exactly what I want on them! It also only cost me about 10 dollars for supplies for 3 sets of ears!
 
I just bought fabric to make my own ears as well! I had planned to buy some cute Halloween ones but they ended up selling out and won't be restocked which might be for the best bc my head is sensitive to plastic headbands anyway. I am planning to make a wrap-around headband with ears on it instead. No idea how this will go but I have a plan! Please post pictures of your custom creations! Would love to see them!

Wow they are very professional you should make and sell them, bet you would get lots of orders.

sounds great, love seeing people in the park and restaurants with their themed outfits.

I agree more photos. I would love to see a photo of the material bands ears when you have done them. I'm hoping in the next few weeks to get mine done and will post photos.

I finished my hand made ears today for our trip Sunday! I used only soft fabric and foam, no plastic. Band has an adjustable strap so I won't get headaches from tightness or pinching. So excited to wear them next week!!! (Also, the purple ones are glow-in-the-dark!)

Very crafty. I expect you'll have lots of folks asking where you got them :)
