Has anyone decorated their Magic Bands? Please show us the pictures!

Finished my magic band! Such a relief. Tested materials prior so should hold up without cracking. I used a combination of oil based sharpie, metallic sharpie, fine point sharpie and finished with with a 3D glaze. Has a lot of dimension and it's shiny.View attachment 127275

Love this! Love Jack!

I love all the designs. Subbing to this page for our future trip, even though I think I will be using Magic Your Band.

I have decorated ours in the past using nail polish, rhinestones, and tattoos, but I decided to order from @MagicYourBand this time for the kids, and I'm very pleased with the result. I haven't had a chance to put the skins on the bands yet, but I will post pics once I do.

I did custom designs, and on one of them, because of the size of the image, I was going to have some leftover "band" showing on each end. I did the online chat with Tracy, who was very helpful, and we were able to just make those extra areas black to blend in with the rest of the skin. Turned out great. Really good customer service and turnaround time on receiving the product.

I've tried looking through this thread but it's super long. I'm looking for info on what works to decorate them best. I was going to draw on them. Wasn't sure if sharpie would work?

Yes, sharpie's work but they may fade into the magic band to give a bit of a faded look

Two of three Dia de Los Muertos themed bands. Lots of glow-in-the-dark bits in here. They need smoothing on the sides then a spray of top coat. I have spent way too much time on these, paticularly since the green one likely will not be worn by the 22-month old.

All Swarovski crystals with a teal glitter base. It sparkles like crazy in the sun!!!

This is just incredible. You should sell these (HINT!). I would definitely buy one.

I got a red band and want to do a Minnie Mouse design. Does anyone have any tips? We get our magic bands in November.

I really want to make a Princess and the Frog band, but I'm having a hard time coming up with inspiration for it

Sorry if this has been asked but besides using nail polish to paint and decorate your magic bands can anyone tell me what else they used? I have seen people say markers and paint markers but I am not sure what they mean. Any help and pictures of what you used would be great.

They look awesome!

Big black bow with white pica dots....use black sparkle nail polish and white sparkle for the poca dots...just one idea!

Here are our three, we arrive tomorrow! I used a combo of nail polishes and acrylic paints and sealed it with clear base coat. I am not loving the smell of nail polish, though. Does anyone have any tips on how to mask the nail polish smell?

No, but it will fade. The odor kind of means a trip to Disney for me now.

Has anyone put triple thick over the bands?? Does it crack or hold up well?

Had a surprise quick trip to go with my daughter to the Halloween Party, so I grabbed one of our old bands and played around with sharpie on it. It was a hack job of the Haunted Mansion wallpaper faces. What I'd forgotten was way back in January 2014 when we first used them, I'd coated this one in the Pure Ice Black Light nail polish. When we rode Pooh and got into the black light area, I glanced down and realized it really does hold up well!

Unfortunately, it appears they no longer make that polish and mine got goopy and was tossed months ago.

I picked up a bottle of Glow in the Dark polish in the Halloween section of Target this weekend and will try that for our next trip to see if it works the same.

I also customized a sticker though MagicYourBand today from a photograph I took years ago, when you could still see the old character mural in the back of the Exposition Hall. I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out, at least on the preview. We'll see once it arrives!

Three more magic band decals I designed on magicyourband.com... I'm obsessed with this site!

Here are our last two bands! As I said in my previous post, I have ZERO artistic ability, and I worked for months learning how to draw these by hand and I think they came our pretty good.View attachment 125253 View attachment 125254

These are excellent. You thought you didn't have talent! Great job.
