I thought the Sharpie would give the best looking autograph but thought it might bleed through the disney store bought books. Is this not the case? (I decorated a sprial bound small scrapbook to use instead.) It is a bit heavy though, so if the sharpie doesn't bleed through the official Disney books, I would reconsider for future trips.
Keeping the autograph book/pen parts in a ziplock baggie is a great idea! I always get so frustrated searching for a pen in the bottom of my bag. My DD likes to pick a certain color sharpie (we have a whole set of the retractables) depending on what character is signing, and so there's this whole annoying unpacking process while in the character line to locate what she wants. Instead of the standard autograph book, we take a cheapie lightweight Tinkerbell 4x6 photo album with 4x6 index cards in it. Characters sign the cards and once we get home we have the digital photos printed up, and then both photos and autograph cards are transferred side by side into the big nice Disney photo album.Cinderumbrella said:The sharpie bleeds a little, but we had the character sign only the right side page. Once we were home I stuck a picture of DS with character getting his autograph on the left side to hide the bleeding.
As for the ribbon idea, I don't know that I have the patience to try and thread it through the bindingI did try velcro last year, but it still kept detaching. Thats why we just kept the book and the sharpie in its own zip loc and I just grabbed the whole bag when we were in the autograph line.
