I am looking for some ways to use the Lime (Alien) Green Mickey head paint chips from Home Depot. Last time I just cut them out and taped them to our luggage, but there's got to be someone cuter than that!
 
I punch a hole through it, write my sn on it and wear it on my lanyard throughout the parks.
 
This is what I did for a Dis meet

Some people do laminate them.
 
I very carefully cut around the green part leaving a perfect lime green Mickey head. Then I glue one to the other so that the front side looks identical to the back. I ten use a paper hole puncher to punch a hole just between the ears. I use my lime green ribbon to hang these from my fanny pack zippers. I also have one dangling from my Guest of Honor badge, which has my first name on the badge.
 

Is there any way to adhere these to luggage, back packs, etc. so that they will stay on?

Yes, do exactly what Claudia described but laminate them and instead of attaching with ribbon, use something sturdier or put the bar of the luggage lock through the hole.
 
Wal Mart and most of the office supply stores have luggage tag kits (usually 5 in a pack) that come with a sticky pocket to act as laminate and a plastic loop to go on luggage. I made each person going a different color two sided Mickey head with name/address/phone on one side and October 2004 as a keepsake.

I use them for learning centers in my classroom. (color words, math facts, letters, etc.).
 
I always get 2 at Home Depot. One gets tied (with lime green ribbon) to my lanyard, the other to my backpack. That way you can see my lime green coming or going!
 
I havnet done anything with my mickey heads yet but I found a way to get them removed from the cardboard. I accidently got one wet and after it sat a while it came loose from the cardboard. Im hoping to line my wall with them like a border someday.
 
Barbday62: Did you completely saturate the mickey head or just get the back a little wet? I want to make luggage tags out of them but don't feel like cutting them all out.
