Just finished my FE gifts for the kids. Still thinking I amy do something else as I have time still. I am not sure I like the phrase I used on the last page, so if anyone has any suggestions, I can still change it =).

Please do not look at this link if you are sailing the June 7th cruise to Alaska.

They are fab, wish you were on my cruise! I have been thinking of something on this line but couldn't be that creative. Any tips on how to get started?

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.

Thanks everyone! Believe me, we are NOT a crafty family!

I bought 1 inch glass tiles from eBay. Sized down Disney clipart to fit. Used Diamond Glaze to adhere the picture onto the glass tile. Then Diamond Glazed the back, added the bail, that's it!

Here's some more images. We did about 20-25 different images and a totoal of 50 necklaces for our upcoming June cruise.

I love these necklaces!!! Especially that yellow and black mickey .

My question is how do you attach the bail? Can you show a picture of the back?

TIA,

They are wonderful. I might not be a kid, but I would love to receive one of those.

I absolutely love this! I might have to steal this idea from you for one of our future cruises.

Great job!!

I did not make these pendants, but I do make glass jewelry so I can tell you how they are attached....

The bails are from Aanraku many websites sell these in packs of 25, For a one inch square you should probably buy the medium or large size the small is very small hard to get on a chain. Check ebay or artisandichroic or dichromart for these usually can get a pack of 25 for around $13 (they are sterling silver plated, not solid ss). Then just glue on the back using E-6000 which can be bought at any craft store or walmart. That is really the best glue for them, or any other glue that states can be used with glass or beads. I cant' post a pic right now buy googld aanraku bails and you can see lots of photos of how they look from the back

hope this helps

Thank you. I really do hope the kids like them. Putting them together is not so hard, but designing the images took a while.

Really? I keep trying to figure out what to do about the cabins without kids, but I can always give them autograph books too, I just didn't think too many adults would like them.

Great job!!

Thank You =) I added the images without the cruise date to a photobucket album .. you are more than welcome to use the images. I sorted them into different sub albums. These are the ones I made, I know you can find more by other people throughout the forums.

Hi! I used a laser printer. I bought some MicroGlaze, which is a product you can add a thin layer on to InkJet images to keep it from smudging.

Yes, really. A lot of adults who go to Disney and do Disney cruises are big kids at heart and I most certainly fall into this category. I spend a considerable amount of time in the character lines on every cruise and this would make such a lovely souvenir.

It is very cute! How did you know what characters to include?? Meaning-- how do you know what characters are on the Wonder?? I have been wanting to do a similar idea for my kids (not our FE gift) for our Dream cruise but I can't get a straight answer from anyone on what characters will be on the cruise. Thanks for any input on this!

Thank you for sharing the graphics. I won't cruise till next yr but would make a lovely gift for my youngest for sure. Also I like your last page but my favorite Disney saying is " See ya real soon" always makes me feel I will return again REAL SOON....LOL

I think this is most I remember from our cruises. I believe that is why there are random blank pages in case someone surprises you with their appearance.

Thank you SO much for sharing. It must be me, but I only see 3 images and they all look like covers. Why can't I see the actual pages?

 

[bibbidibobbidiboo07]

If you scroll down and look at the sub categories on the right of the screen I found the other pages there.

Thank you. I KNEW it was me. duh!

These are the characters I remember seeing from past cruises, with exception of Ariel. I heard Ariel has recently started making appearance on the ship . I wasn't sure if Rapunzel will be added so I was debating making a page for her. But Yes, that is why I made blank pages for any surprise appearances. You can also use the blank pages for the stage performers that appear during the "until we meet again" farewell party.

Ariel was on the Wonder on the Panama Canal Cruise. They do not have Alice though.
