DIY Disney Tattoos for Kids

By 19 Comments

With two curious little boys I was nervous that one of them would get lost in the crowds at Disneyland. They aren’t quite old enough to know their phone number, so I decided tattooing it right on them would be the next best thing. I created fun Disney themed tattoos for kids using free images, a little creative wording, and some Silhouette’s printable tattoo paper.
Tattoos for Kids
I put the tattoos on the inside of their forearm so my phone number would not be broadcast, but would be there if needed.
Our tattoos for kids read as follows:
  • Lightning McQueen: If I’m driving solo please call…#
  • Finn McMissile: If I made a stealthy getaway, please call #
  • Peter Pan: If I’m a lost boy, please call…#
  • Nemo: If my dad is looking for me, please call #
  • Pirate Mickey: If you found our little treasure call #
Here is the template I used to create tattoos for each day. It used a half sheet of tattoo paper and just printed them right on following package directions.

November Visiting Teaching Message

By 2 Comments

The November visiting teaching message is to be taken from the October General Conference messages. I chose to use quotes from President Thomas S. Monson’s talk entitiled “Consider the Blessings.”
I loved his message about counting our blessings and following promptings and seizing opportunities to be blessings in the lives of others. 

Feel free to download and share the November Visiting Teaching message handout with your sisters.

Peter Pan Family Costume

By 1 Comment


Happy Halloween 
from Hook, Smee, Peter, and Tiger Lily!

For our Disney DIY this week we made a Smee costume for Dad. Just buy a white t-shirt and add blue stripes with painters tape and fabric paint. Throw in some blue shorts, sandals, and a red beanie. Cut sideburns out of cotton rounds and safety pin them to the beanie. We forgot to move his glasses on the end of his nose for the picture. Voila, instant Smee!
Wednesdays through January!

Pumpkin Steamer

By 2 Comments

Something about fall with the crisp air and cool night breezes that draws me toward something deliciously warm to drink. I love a yummy Starbuck’s Pumpkin Steamer as much as the next girl, but those paper cups of heaven can take a toll on your pocket book. So, I took things in to my own hands and found out how very simple it is to make your own pumpkin steamer.

Pumpkin Steamer

  • 3/4 ounce pumpkin spice syrup
  • 3/4 ounce vanilla-flavored syrup
  • 8 ounces cold milk
  • Whipped Cream
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice

1. Steam syrup and cold milk together. (or if you’re like me, use the microwave for about minute and a half)
2. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice.

You can get the pumpkin spice syrup online. But, I a little birdie told me if you want it just like Starbuck’s you might want to get Torani or Da Vinci pumpkin sauce (which is creamier and thicker) instead of syrup, which will run you quite a bit more. If you want to make your own, here is a recipe for Pumpkin Spice Syrup.

Great by the mugful, or make a big batch for a party! I’m thinking a pumpkin steamer would make a fabulous addition to Thanksgiving breakfast! Sip it while preparing the feast!
