1. Cinderella Mickey Ear Bars

Materials

  • 1 package of Mickey Mouse Vanilla Ice Cream Bars from the grocery store (we found ours at Target)

  • Sprinkles

How to:

  1. Melt chocolate wafers, in 30-second intervals at 50% power, stir.
  2. Melt wafers again in 15-second intervals at 50% power until melted (hint: you do not want the chocolate to get hot)
  3. Line mouse-ear ice cream onto wax paper, then place on cookie sheet
  4. Dip or pour melted chocolate onto ears
  5. Sprinkle as desired
  6. Place back in the freezer for 5-10 minutes and enjoy for a delicious Disney treat

2. Cinderella Magic Wands

Materials

  • 2 white glitter felt sheets
  • 2 blue glitter felt sheets
  • 1 premium grey felt sheet
  • Embroidery needle 
  • Floss thread 
  • Package of wooden craft sticks
  • Pillow/Doll stuffing from a craft store 
  • Ribbon for decor (satin, grosgrain, pom pom, etc.)
  • Sequins 
  • Craft tacky clue
  • Mini hot glue gun and glue sticks 

How to:

  1. Draw and cut out your first outline (carriage, glass slipper or crown) Note: I freehand drew the outline stencils onto my felt with permanent marker from looking at an image, you can also trace a cookie cutter or trace a picture from online.
  2. Place the first cutout onto another piece of felt for an exact duplicate (this will be your front/back pieces of the wand).
  3. Start to stitch the pieces together, if you search online you can find many examples of different types of stitches. I decided to use the top/bottom or over/under. Keep in mind you want to pull the needle through the top and the floss all the way through and knot the bottom to keep intact. 
  4. Begin the stitching in the corner and work clockwise from bottom to top, left to right.
  5. Once you get to the bottom middle you can hot glue the craft stick and stick it onto the inner back piece of felt.
  6. Start stuffing areas of the pillow wand as you stitch and give yourself room near the end to add in the remainder.
  7. Stitch closed and you are done.
  8. Add ribbons to the top of the wooden craft stick.
  9. Using tacky glue add desired sequins and glitter to front.

4. Magical Disney Princess Backdrop

Materials

  • 2 white plastic table covers
  • Ribbon
  • Long metal strip or whatever you will use to attach the garland too.

How to:

  1. Cut tablecloth into 2-inch strips.
  2. Tie on to your holder/frame/pole by making a knot at the top. I like to layer each strip with two pieces for a thicker look.
  3. Keep going until you have the width and length that you want.
  4. Add ribbons for a fancier look in between and at the end.
  5. Hang strip on wall with gorilla glue tape or what you prefer to use.
