Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey at Hollywood Studios, June 2015

During our last visit to WDW, we took a GREAT family pic with Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey.  As soon as I saw the pic, I knew it would be our Christmas card, but it was missing something…Santa hats.  Since we went in June, I didn’t think about Santa hats and I doubt my husband would have carried them in his backpack all over the parks anyway.  So, how do you take a GREAT pic and make it even better?  Check out PicMonkey.com

Minnie bag

categories: Creative Items, Inspirational Quotes

I only hope that we never lose sight of one thing–that it all started with a mouse. –Walt Disney

 

My youngest daughter has recently expressed an interest in sewing. Since we are taking a trip with her Girl Scout troop to the World later this year, we decided to make Minnie bags for her friends. I chose pre-made bags and helped her add the embellishments.

Supplies:

  • Pre-made cotton canvas bags (I ordered 10-inch by 12-inch bright colored bags from Oriental Trading) These are thin, but work well for someone just learning to sew
  • Decorative fabric
  • Coordinating ribbon
  • Thread
  • Sewing machine
  • Wonder-under fusible paper backed webbing
  • Iron
  • MIckey head template
  • Ironing cloth (I use an old plain pillowcase)

This cialis samples Get More Info is the way how this Ajanta Pharma product is not limited to 1 or 2 hours only, but it works for about 5 hours after consumption.

This way it does not interfere with your productivity and performance. http://appalachianmagazine.com/2018/08/24/the-ancient-origins-of-expression-i-swanee/ vardenafil cost
 

  1. Decide on a design and trace or cut on smooth side (paper backing) of fusible webbing.  photo (15)
  2. Iron onto decorative fabric.  This will be a reverse image of what will appear on the bag.  Since it’s Minnie, it looks the same either way 🙂
  3. Cut out fabric, remove paper backing and place webbing side down onto bag.  photo (16)
  4. Cover with damp ironing cloth and iron on wool setting for 5-10 seconds (Ironing cloth will be pretty dry once finished ironing).
  5. Using a decorative stitch setting (we chose a zig zag style), stitch around design.  Be careful NOT to stitch through front and back of bag together OR through bag handles (yes…we did that)

6. Create a simple bow from the coordinating ribbon and hand sew onto your Minnie ear design.

Disney ‘bounding’ tutu

categories: Creative Items, Inspirational Quotes

I believe in being an innovator — Walt Disney

Disney ‘bounding’ is new phrase for me. It means dressing LIKE your favorite character, without dressing AS the character. Pinterest has some great boards with Disney ‘bounding’ ideas.  My youngest daughter is preparing for our next trip to the World by creating a Disney ‘bounding’ tutu for each day.  We started with a character t-shirt and chose complimentary headband ribbon and tulle colors.  We also chose accessories from Hot Topic to tie it together.

Hello world! DIY Disney Inspired Sharpie Mug

categories: Creative Items, Inspirational Quotes

If you can dream it, you can do it–Walt Disney

 

I am a self-professed Disney ‘junkie.’ I love all things Disney and I love being creative, so this site is my opportunity to share both my love of Disney and my creative side.  For this first post, I want to show you how to create a personalized coffee mug.

Items needed:

  • inexpensive coffee mug (Dollar Tree mugs work best)
  • rubbing alcohol
  • Sharpie paint markers (NOT water based)
  • clear contact paper (with design to trace if needed)

It helps to delay or control get viagra from india ejaculation and last longer in bed to enthrall her with sexual pleasure.

Upshot: the system online cialis pharmacy has been making many bad loans for years.
 

  1. Wipe all surfaces of mug with rubbing alcohol prior to decorating to remove as much of the glaze as possible (I typically use alcohol wipes).  Let dry.
  2. Trace or draw design on back of contact paper.  Cut out and stick to mug.  All areas covered by contact paper will stay white.
  3. photo (2)
  4. I used a Mickey note pad as my template, but you can download a page of Mickey head templates here.
  5. Some of the paint colors WILL change once baked, so I decided to use a dotted design, which looks better than one solid color.  Using one color at a time, I dotted around the template, letting the paint dry before switching colors.
  6. Once the design was completed, I removed the contact paper and added my name in the center.
  7. Let dry for a few hours (overnight is better).
  8. UPDATE:  Beth at Destination Decoration researched the best time frames for Sharpie mugs.  Her results indicate you should bake at 250 degrees for 2 hours.  You can read about her results here
  9. When I made these previously I baked in an oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, however I recommend following Beth’s recommendation for the best color.
  10. These mugs WILL smell while baking.  I placed the mug in a pan upside down while the oven was cold.
  11. Once it was done cooking, I turned off the oven and left it sitting in there until cool.
  12. Although the paint has been set, I recommend hand-washing instead of using dishwasher.
