Halloween craft planner

Halloween craft planner

EEKKK I’m spilling my crafting secrets! How do I come up with my crafts? I plan them out! I put this template together to help you create your own crafts using the planning method that works for me. This is how I do it: Brainstorm 

Aug Content Calendar Template

Aug Content Calendar Template

Kid’s back in school, the house is empty and I need to get ORGANIZED. I’ve been slacking on my posting lately, mainly because homeschooling and summer vacation had me going bananas. I’ve never worked so hard till the day I stopped working. HA! Mom life 

Back to School Pennant

Back to School Pennant

The Disneyland pennant is one of my favorite classic Disneyland symbols. I make them pretty often for different occasions and back to school is no exception.

One of the things my kid looks forward to on special days are the decorations I set up for her. On her first day of school I usually make her chocolate chip pancakes and after school we go out for sushi.

I drew out the template in Procreate and uploaded it to Silhouette to cut onto cardstock. I used the font Orange Grove for the “Disneyland” lettering. I downloaded it for free searching on Pinterest.

Levantate

Just a little Monday motivation. If this song doesn’t hype you up, I don’t know what will. Years later and the lyrics branded into my brain. I’ll just sing along like I’ve been listening to it on the daily.

Disneyfied Mailbox

Disneyfied Mailbox

Magic mail! How pretty is this Disneyland Mailbox inspired craft? Maybe my bills won’t bother me as much if they’re waiting for me in this ADORABLE envelope?

I found this metal envelope at the Target Dollar spot. I instantly knew this had to become a version of the famous Disneyland mailbox. HOWEVER, I kept passing it up because I didn’t want to be the person to do it. I really thought this was going to be a difficult craft and I am more of an easy peasy craft kinda person. If it involves more than a couple of steps, I don’t want to do it. A month later, I still hadn’t seen anyone make this craft, so I gave in and bought the envelope. I still. procrastinated a bit once I got it home but after getting started on it, I realized it was actually much easier than I had expected. I definitely. should have done it sooner.

Materials

  • Target Dollar Spot Envelope
  • Vinyl and Vinyl cutting machine
  • Template (attached at the bottom of the blog post)
  • Spray Paint- I used Rustoleum Candy Pink in Gloss
  • Sand paper
  1. Using a small screwdriver remove the screws to separate the envelope front and back.
  2. Lightly sand and clean everything to ensure the paint sticks and also so that any texture or writing doesn’t show through the paint.
  3. Spray paint the envelope with your favorite color and spray paint. 2-3 coats should be good, but you’ll also need a top coat to seal it. I waited a day to ensure it was completely dry before moving on to adhering the vinyl.
  4. Using the template and vinyl of choice cut out the design in your cutting machine. Making sure that you cut to the correct size. Make sure that the Text and the border are cut separately. I used Oracle vinyl and a Silhouette machine. Weed your design.
  5. Measuring the. center of the envelope and stencil, adhere your vinyl to the flat (back) portion of the envelope.
  6. Screw the envelope back together and then adhere the border. You’ll only be using a part of the top part of the border. I cut about 1/4 inch extra and tucked it into the inside of the envelope. That’s it!

* I used the template for the border but I used fonts Orange Grove and Rockwell for the writing.

** Orange Grove font is the one that looks like “Disneyland” font and can be downloaded for free online. I’ve had it for years, so I can’t recall where I downloaded it from but if you look it up on Pinterest you can find it.

Disneyfied Watermelon Bag

Disneyfied Watermelon Bag

One of my favorite crafts to make is taking ready made objects and Disneyfying them by adding a little magic! For this bag, I took a watermelon coin purse I found at the Dollar Tree and I added iron on Mickeys for a fun Summer

Peppermint Bark

It doesn’t feel like Christmas until we make this yummy treat at home. I used to make mine in a flat dish and crack it into big chunks. However, once I found these molds it’s been a Disney Peppermint bark Christmas every year! These make
