Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 I decorated Logan's band with the " clesr-backed " stickers each week, no mod podge, and they lasted great! All the stickers I used were Sandylion brand, except the teddy bears, they were ProvoCraft. The letter were Susy Ratto Brush letters by Stickopotamus. The clear ones aren't permanent, unlike the paper backed which I understand leave quite a mess. I purchased all of them through simplystickers.com, and stickersgalore.com. If you'd like some ideas, I'd be happy to e-mail you some pics of " our bands. " O sort of miss it already! Jaclin Logan 8 months Right tort./Left plagio. > > Ok...

Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Share Posted September 23, 2006 We didn't need to paint so I can't be of help there. We used several different kinds of stickers Vellum stickers - they worked/stayed on the best Clear - meaning, you can see thru theparts that aren't printed stayed on by the pic rubbed off sometimes. Regular stickers - peeled and wore off easily - and the alcohol that might get on it - so we bought alot of them and replace them as needed HTH! JEN Mommy to 4...and 1 more!!!!

Guest guest Posted March 7, 2007 Report Share Posted March 7, 2007 How do you get stickers to stay on the helmet? Clear Nail Polish? Then how do you remove them?? I just put stickers on the helmet for the first time today and now I am freaking out that they will peel off when he turns over in the middle of the night and that he'll eat one in the morning and choke. I'm probably being ridiculous, I know...I am thinking about taking them all off, but they are cute and definitely make the helmet less medical. I checked them all real good before I put him to bed and they seemed to be attached well except for a few edges that are lifting, but I am sure this will get worse daily. Any ideas??

Guest guest Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 I went to the scrapbook store and found rub-on transfer decals. They are awesome, and seem to stay put really well. They scratch off a little bit, but at least when they do, they aren't a choking hazard. Hope this helps! Jill Mom to Truman - 9 mos.

Guest guest Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 We did use a foam type amterial that we cut into our own shape and used spray glue to stick it ot the helmet. It worked well. It wasn;t too thick and was spongey so it moved ans she rolled around on her band. If you want to see a pic look here. http://www.babiesonline.com/milestones/milestones_view_image.asp?be=j/jens5th & m=278417 Jen and Luli - 26 months Left tort - Right Plagio - Hanger Band Grad - CA http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/j/jens5th/ stickers i was wondering is anyone has use the 3-dimensional or the epoxy & acrylic stickers before on a helmet?
