OMG Pixie
We are going to the World In Nov, would love to have these....
Tried to do my own, needless to say, dog doesn't look so good :

 

[PixieDust32]

How come? What happened? Sorry sweetie.

 

[PixieDust32]

Oh gosh lol im slow today, just got it the dog! you're funny!

 

[letsgodisney]

Well I think perhaps my kit was around a little too long on my shelf and it got a little to messy and runny and I wish I took a picture of the dog. I thinks I would rather go with yours (its better than living in a tie dyed house right) LOL

You Bet oh gosh poor dog

About the kit, did you mixed with the water and let it sit for a while? Because some kits dyes get weak after just a couple of hours

 

[PixieDust32]

now that is an option... a ribbon there.... or maybe I'll just get my daughter to "bedazzle" or something some gems to look like a bow for minnie. we'll see.. i'm putting the cart before the horse now..

here is one with bow

I LOVE IT!! I just bought some ribbon to add to my MM - but I also bought more dye! I hadnt thought of doing just a red and black dye!!

Thanks for sharing!

Some coupons for you guys, just in case....

BTW - JoAnn Fabrics is now encouraging you to use other coupons at their stores!

JoAnn's Tulip dye for one color (ie black or the soda ash) is $4.99 here in my town in IL suburb of Chicago
Michaels is $6.99!
(I havent gotten over to Hobby Lobby - yet!!)

Also - I bought a Tulip brand kit (3 dyes $9.99 - w/ 40% off coupon both Michaels and JoAnn sell the 3 dye kit at $9.99 look for the "hippy" pkg its smaller but includes soda ash! (smaller as in pkg material! SAME exact as the longer package dyes - It can be confusing!!)

anyway - I bought some last year - spring of '08 to dye shirts for my dil bridal shower/weekend etc - due to complications I didnt use that dye until last weekend - no problem - but - like Pixie has posted - I used warm water, and filled about an inch below the "rec" line!!

Thank you for the tips Sandy! Hope ya'll can use the coupons, i know michael's take Hobby Lobby's. I love using my coupons.

Pixie, I'm loving these shirts!!! I've been reading this thread on and off for the past three days... My DH and DD think I'm CRAZY!!!

But I plan on making these shirts for our trip in December... 9 weeks and counting!!! Whoo-hoo!!!

 

[PixieDust32]

Alright!! Yooohoo! I can't wait to see you guys shirts.

My DS12 just told me this morning that while they were in the queue for ToT the attendant who is supposed to be scary (according to him, its been years since I rode ToT) just stared at them a bit and then said.... I SEE HIDDEN MICKEYS!

Still working on those pics. Took me 5.5 hours to get them off my camera and onto CD's over the weekend. Now I need to remember where there is a good shot of the 5 of them wearing them. (I didn't have one because I couldn't find a white T shirt that fit me comfortably and I refuse to look like a sausage! )

 

[PixieDust32]

Ohhh how funny!! I think I have an idea of how the guy is, he always looks spooky, so glad they have those memories.

Don'y worry, take your time with the pics. thanks for sharing that.

Just got back from WDW on Friday. Just wanted to say thanks again for all the instructions. I saw groups with tie dye mickey shirts EVERYWHERE from grandparents to babies wearing them. I wanted to go ask people if they used your directions but didn't want to be a stalker

I was so jealous cuz the group I was with would NEVER have worn those shirts. I made one for myself but only slept in mine My kids made some shirts and socks before I left and you bet I'll be making them for our next (immediate family) Disney trip. Especially love the bow ones.

Great job everyone, I saw great work out there! Thanks again for the detailed information and following up with all my questions.
