Homemade FE Gifts Photo Thread

[Eeyore'sthebest]

I'll drop you a PM, but my DW actually does items like this by scratch with no directions

She is quite talented. I'm not. Thanks anyway.

LOVE the earrings! What a cute idea!!!
I am making our fish extender gifts. I started on them this weekend. I got the idea from what Timon made. I'll share pics after our cruise in April

Well, my DW actually just decided on that today. The guys are going to get keyrings that have a similar mikey head design attached to them. She mentioned three mickey heads in a line...Haven't seen a prototype yet, so I have no real idea of what she's talking about (I don't do creative jewlery)

Here is the promised photo of the earrings my DW made for our FE exchange. This is just a small sampling, but gives an idea of what she has.

OMG - those are SO cute!!! I would love a pair of those! Too bad I'm not on your cruise!!!

For my FE gift, I made little desk calendars with photos from DCL and Castaway Cay. You are welcome to go to my photobucket account:

and download the calendar pages if you'd like to use them. I got the idea off the internet. There are several sites out there where you can download a template and add your own photo.

I love all these ideas. My cruise isn't till Oct, so I can't share my idea right yet. I actually have most my kid ones done. I will post a photo after our cruise! I am just proud of myself for making some. I am giving the boys one thing, the girls another and the adults another....along with a baggy of little trinket stuff. Keep the ideas coming!

Bumping and Subscribing! I will have a pic to post after my March 28th cruise!

 

[big jack 2002]

Wow, Trena,
I really like your calendar idea. Do you mind if I borrow it for our cruise?? Did you just buy a package of empty DVD cases? Did you staple the pages or just lay them on top of each other? What a great idea!!

I had lots of fun reading through this thread tonight! I'm crafting some things for my cruise, but it's in April, so I don't want to give it away - - - plus I'm not done yet, so if I don't make enough for everyone in time, I'll have to think of something else

I am definitely going to try to make myself one of the accordion scrapbooks that Scrappingjen gave out! Those are incredible and I'm soooooo impressed you made them for your cruise pals!

Thanks to all the very talented people for sharing the ideas and the pix!

Great ideas....just wish I had an ounce of craftiness in me

These are amazing! Any chance she'll share her design? Or change your sail date!

How about letting us buy a pair or 2??

I don't think we can sell stuff on the boards but we might be able to "reimburse her for the cost of the supplies"

I'll say thanks for the DW as she still doesn't post on here (And she claims to be a Disney fan, HA!).

The design is not all that compliacted, she uses seed beeds and then has a small gauge wire running the entire length of the design.

The ears are just loops that have 2 beads from the main hoop, so the wire wraps around itself to form the ears. The two "ends" join at the top where the crimp is (silver square) and then it is wrapped around the earring fixture.

Well...she says it isn't complicated. I've seen here crank out easily 4-6 sets a night for the last couple of weeks getting ready for our cruise.

I'll drop you a PM with her e-mail address (you too o4me2playn) so you can ask her more questions if you wish.

I love those earrings. Your wife is very creative. I'm sure their going to be a big hit. Can I try to borrow the idea for our upcoming Sept. cruise? I say try because they may not turn out good.
Thanks

Kudos to your wife. And, I agree with the others - I wish you were on my cruise over Thanksgiving. I kind of understand these directions - can you PM me anything else or send me an email address so I can email your DW.


jeniamt- your baby is beautiful!
