    What a good idea!

    What were those black discs in the first pictures of the crafting area?

    I'll probably be the only D-website person at Disneyland, and I'll definitely be the only SR person there!

    Wonder if the other two Disney appreciation message boards that I post to occasionally have chosen colors of mickey heads!

    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.
    Good Work! My missions are always much more productive when the paint employee is MIA or assisting other customers I have several projects in mind for my heads let me know what the other yellow is you're thinking of ...

    the black discs are wood shapes I painted and had my dad drill holes in, they now are this:



    garland for our window. When I hang it for real, it won't be with drafting tape, but with suction cups w/ hooks! I'm pretty pleased with how it came out. I have to do the rest of our decor this weekend!

    If your other boards haven't chosen colors, choose them for them!

    That is why I've decided to just liberate every color. Who knows when someone else will pop up with a designated color!!

    How cool. I have never seen these things. I dont have a HD close. I may have to make a run to one somewhere. I have seen them talked about before, the lime green ones. I never thought of them as the paint samples though.. Now I need to see if I can find some.

    I just checked. It was laser beam. It just looks brighter in real life than in the picture posted.

    the black wood -> do you get that at a hobby lobby type place? I can see this turning into lots of fun.

    All colors deserve the chance for a happy life outside of their orange and brick HD prison! Good for you for not being discriminating! Equal Opportunity Liberation!

    As evidenced in the pictures, I do have a sufficient stash for sharing, PM me with your addy if you'd like some

    The black wood actually started out as plain wood. I picked up the shapes from the bare wood aisle at Jo-Ann fabrics, but I know that Hobby Lobby/Michaels/AC Moore would all have them as well. 25 cents/circle, threw some black acrylic paint on that I had laying around and mod podged the heads on that. Had my dad drill the holes for the ribbon for me the last time he and my mom were visiting me.

    I don't know if you can get them delivered, unless it's by personal delivery via USPS
