If anyone needs some, and cannot get any, let me know. I could swing by HD this weekend (when our floods subside) and pick some up and mail them to those in need.

Thank you! I'm quote proud of the group as well!
How to BeHead HD Mickeys:
1. Fill cake pan with water (or other largish type flat pan)
2. Put a selection of heads face down in the water
3. Let heads soak until paper begins to look "water-logged" (you'll be able to tell) I usually left them in there for 30-60 seconds. Some of the heads slid right off, some of them needed some coaxing.
4. Place on paper towels to dry
5. Put dried heads in between heavy books to flatten (the curl during the drying)
Most of the colors came off their backings really well. The only color that had consistent problems was orange. The medium and dark orange shades did not fare well. Clearly God did not want them to live.
Happy Beheading!

I went on a liberation mission after work and picked up both Sunny Spot and Laser Beam
Sunny Spot is on the left, Laser Beam is on the right (and some other colors may have jumped into my hand ...)
What's everyone's opinion? Which one should we choose? Laser Beam does look a little nicer in person ... and may be more noticible hanging off a bag since it's darker ...
and I've left some heads on their cards, but I like how clean the edges are when I soak them off of their backing. It's worth working with the curled edges because I like the finished look much better

who said there weren't times that we made purchases? and I never cleaned out any shelves - they're paint chips, not cans of paint! now THAT would be interesting and very illegal. Free paint chips on the other hand, I have no issues with. Especially when I would be in there for a dozen or so of various colors and a family with kids would come in and wipe out an entire row. Besides, my heads are going into room/window decor and scrapbooking projects, not coloring time and then the garbage can!

Thanks for the instructions Abby. I came back from my mission tonight and had a very successful one. I think Mike was embarrased. I had a quart sized ziplock bag full of every color imaginable. :rofl:
I got to HD and saw they had the mickey heads from a distance so I quickly walked to the section and saw no HD employee around and only 1 customer around so I crowded the section and started grabbing handfulls of each color. I think I have 20 of most of them except the really dark colors (those are next trip). I figure either I decorate the room window with them or they go in a scrapbook for next trip.
If anyone needs some sunny spot or alien green let me know. I'll try to get some your way. There was another yellow not sunny spot and not laser beam that I liked. hmm I'll pull out my bag tomorrow and check.
