Down to about 3 months....got a lot a projects going.

I have been working on welcome bags...

i got canvas bags from oriental trading- when I got them I was a little disappointed because they were a lot smaller than I imagined
After living with them for a while and DF convincing me they were better(would take less to fill and seem like there is alot in them!) They have grown on me!

i decided to do an iron on transfer on each-the inspiration came from a design I saw on Patsdesigns.com of the characters around a fire roasting marshmellows with the Ft. Wilderness logo on it- My dad stays there in his Rv about every trip we take. So each is different depending on who's it is---

Here is the bag with the inspiration design--

these are the little "Welcome" tags i put on each-

Each will have the usual park maps, i included "The guide to everything Disney" i found at the Disney store-

Information about events, transportation, fun facts, things we love at Disney, Hidden Mickey hunt..etc...
i made a little pocket folder to put them in, since they had to be smaller d/t the bag size

In each bag is a wallet necklace- geeky I know- but I bought one years ago from LLBean that I love, with kids we always have a bag with us but I hate digging for $/tickets so it is great, everything is right there.

These were cheap so if they dont get used it wont hurt my feelings.
On each we pinned a 2008 pin

Will post more as soon as my computer decides to let me post pictures--been having internet problems! Do they not know they are interrupting my dis time!!!

I Love the Bags! I'm doing something very similar. Where did you get the mickey welcome tags????

 

[lov2b@disney]

Okay! Back in business

We are including a tin filled with Mickey and friends sweet tarts

the tin

the candy

The Bare necessities: (borrowed from another disbride-Wendy I think)

in it are wet ones/sunscreen/disney bandaids/tylenol trial packs/tissues

Once complete i will close with the sticker

Keychains/magnets/lollipops

the rest is stuff for the kids, each bag is different depending on the age of the child- autograph books for the little ones, pin lanyards for the older ones

I think that is it! Enough I hope, but everytime I see someones ideas I add to them!

Thank you! I'm pleased with how they turned out and it was fun to find a design for each!

I made the tags, black cardstock and the image is from www.mouseforless.com it is supposed to be for a downloadable luggage tag
I printed it and cut out the image!

So in cutting our budget back i decided our boys did not need boutonniere's. Every little bit helps.
All of them like to collect pins for their lanyards so i decided to get them each a pin to wear. I havent decided yet but I may put a ribbon under it to dress it up a little? INPUT TO THIS????

Any way i found a formal Mickey with a ring- for DS(2) our ringbearer-

our oldest chose formal goofy(also a hidden mickey pin)

And Kyle our middle chose Formal Donald(also has a hidden mickey-I dont think this picture has one, but his does)

i got them all on ebay for less than $20.

Then they all get a wedding keepsake!

Sandy -- The pins are an awesome idea! How clever! And what a wonderful keepsake for the boys! Gotta LOVE the characters in their formal wear.

Thanks Cam! I think they like the idea better! They gave me the look when I asked what they would rather have....might I even ask

Boys ruin flowers so quickly anyway!

I love the pin idea for your boys Sandy! Its so cute! Spending $15+ for boutonnieres does add up and at least after the wedding they can look at it and say "I wore this on Mommy's wedding day"
