Hi. I want to add that special Disney touch to our home, and without spending alot of money. Now I would love:love: to see all your homemade creations please.
 
But there must be someone here who does. There are so many talented people on here.

I am still trying to figure out how to decorate my house. I like more grown up look, I guess, but want Disney in that too. For right now I am trying to stick to putting out things I LOVE. And hope that it all comes together in the end.

A house is not a home without a little bit of Disney!!
 
I don't have any pictures but in our last house we had a disney kitchen which we painted yellow with black trim and a mickey border. To enhance the color scheme (on the cheap), we got really cheap 4 x 6 photo frames from walmart (like one dollar each) and spray painted them yellow, red or black then filled them with character photos of us with the characters and alternated colors along the sophet over our cabinets.

Other options are enlarging photos from stock photos found online and framing those - you can get cheap enlargements from shutterfly or other sites with coupons.

I have also just done an 8x10 photo collage for my son for valentine's day on kodak.com that has every picture we've taken of him and mickey mouse on his many trips - the collages on this site are awesome and make for a really interesting home design element.

In my current home office, I have framed prints from the giveaways when you buy a dvd from disney and they cover one wall - two prints from beauty and the beast, two from snow white, etc. I got most on ebay very cheap. Frames can be found cheap too at walmart and other similar stores. I also found amazing posters on ebay for the home office of each of the parks - those frames were more expensive but if you have acmoore or michaels in your area there are always 40% off coupons you can use.

I am also a tole painter, and for my son's room we have used a projector to trace characters (cars guys this time) onto a sheet of plywood and cut them out with a scroll saw and then I painted them. I'm going to try to put in a few photos of these...(I painted the clock too).

You can imagine what my house looks like huh?
 
Here are pics of my Ds's nursery. Notice the 'hidden mickey' cloud. Images are mounted to foamcore then nailed to the wall.
