So we've decided we are going to Disney World, Jan 2013! Yes, I know that is a long time away but it gives us time to plan and save. It is also the week of my late father laws b-day, he loved Disney so we are doing it for him as well. Good Memories, No Sad ones!!
We having been talking about it a lot and want to begin to teach the boys to save. SO we started a Disney fund! Then I put these two ideas together:
| uncommongoods.com |
| via pinterest (couldn't find blog this was from if its YOU please let me know!!) |
and this is what I came up with!
And HERE is how I did it!
Start with
a diaper box, scissors, a marker, and a bowl.
cut the box up, you need pieces for the sides and the face and ears
| I used the bowl- the largest part for the face and the inside circle for the ears. |
| My boys made a mess while I cut the box and took pictures! |
| Cut the rest of the box into strips that are the same width- then use something like the table (like me) and make the strips bendy, so they will curve. |
| Break out the hot glue gun! (I know! I need the hot glue helpers set b/c this cookie isn't cutting it huh?) |
| Because I am make this a bank, I left the opening at the top All done the face part! |
| When I was done with all the circle I realized they weren't going to stick onto the larger circle well, so, I just added some dowels! |
| TA DA! |
| Card stock and stickers! |
| Covered with card stock and ready for stickers! |
| Get two little boys ready to pick out letters! |
There you have it!
OUR MICKEY BANK!!
Hope to "See You Real Soon" around here!
