Homemade FE Gifts Photo Thread

I got the dangles on ebay. Don't remember who the seller was. Then I wire wrapped the dangles to the bracelets. I also got some red and purple dangles in the past that I attached to lanyards I made, so we have something to hang our cards to while on the ship. I have pictures of those as well right below the picture of the bracelets.

These lanyards are so cute!! Do you sell them? I would love to buy one... or two!

I love my lanyards and jewelry, as I love anything shiny and sparkling, and have a very hard time letting go of any of them. My friends say that they have to pry them out of my fingers. So, sorry, I don't sell them.

 

[Kurby]

ok - you won't sell them..... but can we beg for one

Kurby,
Good luck. I am one of said friends and I for the first time this weekend was able to get one piece of jewlery (she has been making it for 6 months) because it happened to be one that she did not like. I also had to threaten her in order ot get one of the Mickey ones for the cruise, so unless you have blackmail material it won't happen. Luckily though she is willing to share the lanyards on the cruise. Whichever one she is not wearing, I can wear.

I'm so impressed with everyone's crafting ability. I want one of everything.
Here's one of the things I am making for my FE.

HebeJebe are you going on our cruise 4/10/11 on the Wonder? If so, I want one. Are you making them in different colors with different characters?

Missed you by this much! I am on the May 3rd cruise.
So far I have Mickey, Minnie, Daisy, Donald, Pluto & Buzz. I'm thinking about Tink, Stitch and whatever other patterns I can find. They are super fun to make but a bit time consuming. Each coaster has a coordinating color border.

I love all the jewelry ideas too. I am such a bracelet fanatic.

My favorite Disney character is Eeyore. I'll have to look for coaster patterns with Eeyore on them. Maybe I can find one with a matching border in blue, I think that would look great too. I think Casiland is trying to find a Eeyore decoration on my pocket of our fish extender.

I am getting so excited about the cruise and the FE's. It is so much fun to see how creative everyone are. Please continue to post pictures.

Joanns has an Eeyore iron on patch. I've seen an Eeyore Perler/Hama pattern but it's a larger full body one and I don't know if the size would work for a coaster.

Hi, HebeJebe! I'm also making perler coasters - not Disney themed - it makes sense for my cruise, but I'm trying to avoid posting since I know one of my FE mates is here too, and I'm trying to avoid looking at her work.

Anyway, where did you find the thin cork for a backing? I hadn't solved that problem yet.

Thanks SO much!

I got that at Jo-Ann's as well. It's rolled with an adhesive backing. So far the backing is holding and I haven't had to add any additional glue.

Awesome. I live 1.5 miles from a small Jo-Ann's, but there is a huge one not too far. Thrilled to know that I can look for it there!

I have a coupon for Jo-Ann's that's good online until Sunday for 50% off any regular priced item. Depending on how much the cork is (and if you have time before your cruise), it may work out less costly to order online. Shoot me a PM if you would like me to forward the coupon to you.

My JoAnn's, AC Moore and Michael's all take each other's coupons, so I don't need to stress over that. I'll check into ordering on line. We sail in Aug, so I have plenty of time. I'm from the Philadelphia area, so my coasters have a 'local' rather than Disney theme, but I'm proud of how they are turning out. I have other ideas I'm hoping to get to as well, so I'm really trying to make a jump on it all.

I was thinking of making these as part of my FE gift and not sure of a couple things. They are plain note cards...1. would you like/us them? 2. should I make them more Disney-like?

I just started today and do plan on stamping and embossing some w/ Mickey etc...guess I'm double guessing myself. TIA!

My daughter and I did these glass tile pendents. We love them! The photos do not do them justice. These are just some of our designs.

I like the cards. They are very nice, I like the "small" touch of Disney on them.
