I was reading your description of how you made your rhinestone hoodie...I have the arts and crafts skill of 2 year old and wanted to know:
 1) how easy was this really? I wanted to 'make' them for all my BMs, and would rather save the $$ and DIY it instead of ordering the templates.
 2) is the mylar paper sticky? you said you put the rhinestones on shiny side down (assuming that's that "bling" side) then you flipped it onto the shirt?

TIA!!

    Ditto FF - SUPER EASY. Give yourself some time if you're going to do them for all your BMs because you have to do each crystal one by one. Yes. The mylar paper is a little tacky - not so much sticky. So it holds the rhinestones just enough so you can flip it over and put it on the shirt. The mylar paper is pretty much shot after you iron the image on so you'd need to get one for each shirt that you're doing - otherwise, everthing else you can get pretty inexpensive on ebay. Good luck! Can't wait to see pics!
