Don't know why but it really bugs me..hehe

GREAT DESIGN!!! yea minnie looks much better than tink....plus it looks awesome now without the white lines :earsboy:


i was thinking of making this shirt for my friends but realized we r doing Goofy's Kitchen in Disneyland....is there anyway to incorporate Goofy into the design? If not, no worries!! they still came out great!
 
Did the front of our and our friend's t-shirts last night. They turned out great except for the first one that I burnt a little. I'll probably re-do it tonight. Pictures will come after the trip (less than 4 days away :banana: :banana: ). They'll look much nicer with the appropriate backdrop.

Now, I need some advice ... I am putting our character names on the back of the shirts. How do you iron the transfer on the back without affecting the transfer on the front? I did a test with a small cutting board last night. But the cutting board could not stand the heat of the iron and warped. I don't think I have anything else small enough to fit inside the shirt. Can I simply iron on the back without putting something in the middle of the shirt? Will this affect the front transfer? Anyone with experience, please let me know. I really don't want to ruin all my work from last night with trial and error. Thanks.

I think someone had posted that they used their ironing board to iron on both sides. Put the t-shirt over the ironing board so the top transfer is hanging underneath. I think if you iron the back with the front transfer directly underneath getting heat it might ruin it. Did this make any sense :rotfl:

I just loved this one, but I had to wash it & it faded & cracked :(

I washed one of my shirts and it cracked too, I just used one of the paper sheets that come with the transfer paper and ironed over it again and they looked just like they did before I washed it.

Hope this helps.
 
I will give that a try & see if it helps, thanks!

When I did our Dwarf auto shirts I used the folded pillow case that I was ironing on and slipped it into the shirt between the front and back, but be very careful not to have any wrinkles in any of the layers as it will leave a crease in the design. With my little kids shirts I did not put anything between the layers, but made sure there were no wrinkles and they came out fine too.

So I mailed the transfer paper late Saturday - and never dreamed the post office would be so efficient!!

I have directions that I need to scan and post for you all - I just haven't done it yet - I am swamped today - I actually have a job :faint: it is part time planning religion classes at church but our teacher orientation is tonight and I have been frantically getting ready for it - something - although I can't imagine what it is :rotfl2: - caused me to put it off until the last minute!!
Gee....what could it have been.....:scratchinan upcoming WDW trip, perhaps??? Or what shirt to wear on which day??? Am I getting warm??

Thank you for the directons to both you and ellenbenny for the instructions

And to all of you leaving in the next few days, :wave: have a terrific trip and let us know how everyone reacts to your shirts.
 
Here is how you do both sides.
Follow the instructions as list on transfers.

Put the ironing board up.
Wood cutting board layer that with a double sheet or pillow case.
Slip the shirt through letting shirt hang down.

I used my big pullout cutting board from the kitchen.
For all my transfers.
You do need to put the pillow case.

So your layers are.
Cutting board, pillow case, shirt, transfer, transfer tissue paper.

Hope this helps.
 
I HAVE NO FORMICA!!!! And I have to do the shirts today!!! (We leave tomorrow!!) HELP!!

Can anyone suggest something else to place the shirt on to iron it? I have wood floors... could I layer a couple of pieces of cardboard on them? I have some sections of peel and still tile... would that work???? All my countertops are granite and I wont use them.... I have some tiled floors, but I am worried about them cracking with the heat!

HELP I need ironing tips!!!!

(Posted and PM'd to a lot of people! LOL)

Thanks bunches!
