Pal Mickey (& Friends) Adventures & Fashions

[DisGal520]

Way too cute Patty. and i notice his shirt too. DisGal520 friend made our pals a shirt just like that for the cruise this past Jan. Well the same pattern of material. next time you are on my personal photo album look for our Pals in those shirts <G>

yep - brady and mrspotatohead - ----
Marsha and I were a little ahead of the trend I guess. A dear friend made us each a Nemo/Dory tropical shirt for the January '07 cruise, same exact material! I also made us Nemo/Dory visors that matched the shirts. May be a picture of the guys sporting their outfits in brady's photo file!.

Because Marsha is a true Dory fan, I searched for 2 months to find material with a pattern small enough to look good on these little PM's.

We should all get them together in their shirts!. You are in FL a week before I will be this year. Maybe could plan another trip for, as Marsha likes to say, THE COUSINS!

If so, I see matching T-shirts all around!

Hey...where are all my friends? I'm just sitting here waiting for some sunshine....

Umbrella and chair from Build a Bear Workshop ($5 and $8 respectively).

Anyone else ready for some sun and fun?

Mom's packing my stuff for my next adventure to WDW in two weeks...she says I have too much stuff! Can you believe it? Too much stuff?

When Pal Mickey and Minnie got married in November, they had their own suitcase. I couldn't believe how much stuff they wanted to take.

Nicky & I are definitely for lots of sunshine and warmth. We had a nice day today until late this afternoon when it got windy.

For those of you new to the thread, did you know what of the Pals got married? Here's the thread with all the details.

MrsPotatoHead - hi again. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and take a wild guess that you are a fan of the Mr Potato Head. Have you seen the latest edition - Spider Spud[/COLOR]?

He sports a red spandex outfit with black spider web pattern. Made me think of you when I was at the store. Was 9.99.

Friends and I are staying at Pop Century soon. And have heard they have the largest collection of MPH parts in their gift shop. Supposed to be even bigger than the display in the Downtown Disney store. Will be fun to check that out.

all - sorry about the html - color = red, etc. That doesn't seem to work for me in composing posts here. Works fine in email.

Oh well

DisGAl,

Yup! got him! I have spuds all over the house....good thing they have holiday parts so I can keep in in the decor LOL.....

I got him for my DH originally, but my sons have taken him over. They have all the Star Wars ones also and the Spider Spud is really cute too....

Thanks for thinking of me! I'm also anxious for new parts for Spud when I get down in May...

One of these amazing designers here on the DIS (PAT) customized one of her designs for my PAL's sizing today...and wanted to share in case some of you guys don't get down to those threads regularly...

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?p=18312016&posted=1#post18312016

Check out that thread and scroll until you see the three different sizes she made just for PAL!

Hope others enjoy this one too...what a great t-shirt for traveling this will make!

Oh boy! I didn't know this was on the Disboards, I will have to go back and read all 40 something pages! THanks Mrs Potato Head for letting me know about this.

I haven't bought PM yet, I will in a couple weeks on my next trip and I am excited to dress him up (I tried Michael's and A.C. Moore but they don't have so much to pick from) But I did find some lime green mini crocs at the dollar store the other day. I couldn't resist but I am not sure if they are too big or not. They are
4 1/2" long
2" wide
1 1/2" tall
Here is a picture...





So what do you guys think...will they fit him?
Okay on to read the rest of your cute ideas!

So cool and exciting you will be getting your first Pal Mickey SOON!!!!!!!!!

And of course once you do be sure to post pics of him, his fashions, and adventures.

I can't say if the crocs will fit I'm not good at doing that.

I can say I find baby shoes size 0-2 usually fit Pal. Depending how made, soft, hard shoe etc.... My Pal has shoes ranging from 6mths to size 2.

You can find shirts cap sleeves style on jiminees. I found a navy suit with white shirt, red tie, navy jacket and pants that fit Pal close enough that he looks soooo cute.

Starbuck bears some of their outfits fit him too.

Sometimes if just finding a bear or doll that looks about same size, buying it then put clothes on Pal. That leaves you with a bear/doll without clothes LOL.

if you read thru this thread you will get lots of ideas how to outfit your Pal.

I have gone beyond Pal and found a plush Minnie at the stores near WDW to add to our family. So now I am dressing her which find much easier finding things. Thanks to Becky here on boards, Dora the explorer outfits are great for Minnie. So far Minn has Dora's artist, party dress, gardener, ballerina, life guard, bedtime and on order cowgirl and chef/cooking. Plus of course Minn has several Princess dresses that I bought from Disney shopping. They had their princess dolls on sale for 7.99 and the dresses fit Minn perfect. So she has Princess Ariel, Belle, and Cindy. Found in hair dept at Target a small crown and ponytail decoration that Minn just loves wearing her tiara and princess dress

can't wait to hear more from you and your pal.

congrats!!!!!!!!!!

you say you're coming to WDW in a couple weeks? We will be there 5/17 -5/23. Going to be there around that time?

Just measured my Pal's sandals. The sandals are 4 1/2" long by 2 1/2" wide. So even as those 'crocs' are a different style, they may fit him. So bring them along. And congrats on adding a Pal Mickey to your family!

well since i had a coupon for Build a bear club, went there this weekend. Pal and Minn saw Mrs Potato Head's beach chair and beach umbrella she got for her Pal, and the demanded they needed one. esp need it for the upcoming cruises.

No pics to share now but am sure to have some after the June cruise.

Mrs Potato Head you are not a good influence on my kids LOL. They want what your Pal gets but for that matter they want what anyone gets their Pal or other characters LOL.

I have a long way to go before my PM has half of what some of you guys have been able to find! I am diligent, I'll give you that....and I have had a lot of free time in recent months to concentrate on this, but I'll slow down, I promise. I won't stop, though! HA! My evil plan to rule the world with dressed up PAL Mickey's all over the "world" is on.....

In the mean time, how is everyone? I'm spending my days sewing and trying to get myself organized for my trip down to WDW next week. I have my iron-on's made, a few other items packed, and PM is now sitting in his chair with his "I'm going to WDW" t-shirt on and wondering why we aren't leaving.... Guess I organized him a little too soon....

Hope everyone else is doing well!

Life is good for me but I'm busy with a large project at work. Pal Mickey hasn't been happy with me because he has not gotten the attention that he is used to. He even has new clothes that he has never had a chance to try on.

Have fun at Disney. I'm looking forward to pictures.

Minn rec'd her offfical Pirate outfit today. but sorry you guys will have to wait until after the June cruise to see pics. She doesn't want to show off just yet.

Shhhh don't tell her where or how I got it. I bought a pirate minnie off ebay. since outfit was sewn on as part of that minnie, well sorta took the stuffing out, did some clipping here and there. and we have a complete outfit for Minn <G> Parrot and all.

rec'd a few more cap sleeve/tshirts that i plan to do iron on either generic designs for WDW and/or DCL, or both. On the shorts am thinking of doing a small mickey head icon iron them too <G>

guess need to get busy at some point coming up with what to iron on their new tshirts. won't be difficult since such a small area can't do too much on one iron on patch <G>

hope all is well. seems everyone is busy. I think it must be that time of year of something with spring/summer coming just seems everything starts piling up, more to get done, and more just keeps coming whether it be with work, personal, vacations etc....

later gators

Patty, I heard on the radio today that today is Mr. Potato Head's birthday (well something like that anyway). Thought you'd like that info since you are such a fan.

WOW! I should have had a cake..or at least dressed up Mickey and had a party!

I did, though, spend an hour on Sunday "dressing" 5 Potato Heads in their WDW gear...they are quite a group!

Thanks for the heads-up, Vicki!

Here a couple pics of the build a bear wheelchair attached to arm of my power chair, and the kids in the wheelchair

little squished in the chair together but may be a way of carrying the two kids with me using the power chair. (I have figured out using a plastic storage bin attached to arm of chair will also work. If more than two kids they must sit in back seat in a bike basket attached to back of headrest <G>)

 

[brady961]

Minnie wanted to show off her new DCL tshirt and skirt outfit. of course must notice the sandals too She and I both are so excited for our upcoming 3 night cruise in June.

Plus her new Explorer oufit (from Dora the explorer line)

her new Princess Minnie tshirt:

And her Leisure Red Dress (actually is a tshirt from jimineees but long enough to be a dress for Minn)

Pal also has a new DCL tshirt, new shorts with Mickey icon on them, tshirts with generic WDW/DCL designs etc.. He is feeling left out that I haven't taken pics of him in his new clothes. I explained that Minn is going on a cruise next month, so right now taking her pics to share.

When he goes with me in Sept on the cruise I will share his pics of new things before that cruise if not before then
