A few weeks ago there were posts about t-shirts you made for family trips. Well, I tried the tie-dye Mickey heads and it worked!! Thank you to all who posted ideas and such. I forget who told the directions for the Mickey tie-dye outlines(SORRY) but, I am so excited now to go. We leave for Disney in 12 days. Hope to see you all there! We have lime, fushia, and blue t-shirts. If you see us, Say HI! We are disers with cool shirts thanks to the boards! Hugs to you all!
I tried to post pictures but, I am not really computer savy so, I had no luck. After an hour I gave up. I will try again at a different time. If you have any tricks, let me know. Again, thanks everyone for your posts on the shirts.

found this on the tips board hope it helps.the directions are from cujochurch. I tried to post the link but couldn't figure it out so i just copied and pasted it. if you want to see the pics the link to them is on the tips board and the title is Tye dyed mickey heads (i think)
Take the shirt and draw a mickey head in pencil, on the shirt. I made a pattern on papper first and then traced along the edge. You will then "sew" the pattern. Use a needle and thread. I got a waxed thread at Michaels to make sure it didn't take up the dye. Sew a 1/4" - 1/2" basting stitch along the pencil line. A basting stitch is a very simple stitch that goes up & down through the fabric. Only go through the front of the shirt if that is where you want the mickey to be. If you want it on front and back. Do each side separtely. After stitching along the complete line, knot it, and pull it tight, so the fabric gathers in a bunch. Make sure the inside of the Mickey is poking outward. Pleat the rest of the fabric, so that you have a long snake like tube. The more careful you are with pleating the fabric along the length of the shirt, the better the final result. Go easy, and take your time. Wrap a rubber band around the threaded bunch. The tighter the tie, the more defined the outline of the mickey will be. Place remaining rubber bands in 1"-2" intervals along the rest of the shirt. It is a little hard to explain, but when you are done you will have a long snake. One end is the mickey on front of shirt and the other end it the back mickey. Through the middle is the rest of shirt (arms, neck etc.).
Then follow the instructions in the kit for preparing and dying shirts. The squirt bottles make it possible to get the specific color where you want it.
I will be glad to answer and questions if I didn't explain it well enough.
I am still working on posting pics. Thank you Melagan for directions. There were some really cool pics just like mine on the thread that perpetualplanner listed. Have fun. It is really fun to do and it works well.
