Here is a link that I found to make our own FE's. We go on our cruise in August, going shopping this week for our FE making supplies!!!

For those of you that laminate your homemade gifts, I have a question. Do you use pouches or pockets? For example, I have bookmarks that are 4 to an 8 1/2 by 11 sheet of paper. Can I laminate them together, then cut them apart? Do I need to cut them first and place them in separate things? I have not purchased my laminator yet. I am trying to gather info first, but it is cheaper to buy one than to pay to have my stuff done. TIA.

if you are using self laminating sheet you can cut them after they are laminated.

We were on your cruise and love these (and everything else) my coasters are on my bar right now. Thank you! We had a very creative bunch cruising with us. I am still amazes at what everyone made and gave. Getting so many ideas for our cruise next year.

How did you make the coasters?

Here are my most recent FE gifts!

Pocket lights for kids

Flameless candles for adults - or as some said "shot glasses disguised as candles" LOL!

How do you get or make decals to put on your FE gifts, such as these candle holders? Thank you

And here's a close-up of one.

I made bookmarks as part of our FE gift. I put a felt back on the back of them once I finished. I got the pattern for the DCL symbol and the ship from a wonderful lady on this site (I apologize to her because I can't find the email to giver h name for credit!) then I added the Fantasy and date!

do you have a pattern?

I tried to combine all my hobbies for one of my latest cruise gifts... knitting, sewing, and 3D-printing.



Pics of all my DCL FE/pixie-dusting projects are kept here: https://www.pinterest.com/runskyhy/mouseka-souven-ears/. (It's easier to keep them all in one place over there. There's nothing for-sale on my Pinterest boards, it's just personal crafts, so just for sharing ideas but I apologize if Pinterest links aren't allowed.)

Sorry, just found this! I have a Cameo Silhouette for my business. You can probably find decals on Etsy though.

@runskyhy So cool. I'm always impressed by people that go above and beyond.

Where did you get the little light? That's cute.

I purchase in bulk from a wholesaler, however they are available retail on eBay and Amazon.
