Day 1266: Quoting

I've been doing these Quote Canvases for a while now, and I really believe the hardest part about them is choosing the quote you want most and then finding a design that will fit both the space and the theme. For the above work in progress, it wasn't that difficult, although it took some debating for sure. We knew we wanted something Pixar, and because it was going in our kitchen, we figured that Ratatouille would be a fair place to pick a quote from. 

But with so many great Disney quotes out there, how can you really pick just one? I mean, here are some of the brainstormed quotes that we've discussed for various canvas works: 

"Have Courage and Be Kind" - Cinderella

"All our Dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them." - Walt Disney

"It's kind of fun to do the impossible." - Walt Disney

"Adventure is Out There" - Up

"Just Keep Swimming" - Finding Nemo

"Oh yes, the past can hurt. But from the way I see it, you can either run from it, or learn from it." - The Lion King

"You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." - Winnie the Pooh

To be far, those were just a few of the options that we've considered over time, and I would love to know what you'd put on a quote canvas like the ones I create! Let me know in the comments! 

Have a magical day!

Day 768: On A Personal Level

Time for another blog post inspired by another blog post. Initially, this was the blog post day that I had nothing for in my long list of make-ups for the month of February, and then I happened to read an article from Oh My Disney which just ended up really being relevant, so I thought I'd share.

The article is a list of "11 Things Disney Fans Never Get Tired of Doing," which you can read in it's entirety HERE. Of course I went and read it because I am a Disney fan and there certainly aren't a lot of Disney-related things I get tired of doing. So let's go through the list, and I'll provide some physical evidence along the way too!

Going to the Disney Parks

Nope...I don't go...at all...ever...

Speaking in Disney Quotes

Sometimes I talk about Colin O'Donoghue and I'm just like:

Re-watching Disney Movies

I'm only in the middle of a giant mission to watch every Disney animated movie in order...it's a long process...

Informing Friends and Family of Endless Disney Trivia

I won't take a picture of it...but I have a whole drawer in my desk at school that's devoted to books and Disney trivia stuff. And my roommates probably know more about Disney than they ever thought they would.

Secretly Thinking of Yourself as Your Favorite Disney Character

My fav character I pretend to be is actually Rapunzel...but this counts, right?

Comparing Everyone Else in Your Life to a Disney Character

Today I decided my roommates are Belle, Tiana and Thumper.

Collecting Disney Things

Really? I do that?

Coming Together

Now, I don't have a lot of pictures of this one, but I'm super excited to meet up with several of my Disney friends in August when I head to Disneyland!!! Then again, it'll take a lot to beat out my meeting Maxwell Glick in March 2014!

Making Others Smile

I definitely strive to make others smile in life. It's why I've sort of adopted a new "positive outlook" for 2015 on all social media. Being happy is one of the best things you can do for yourself, and I want to help others do that to.

Dreaming Big

I think there's no better way to identify a Disney fan than by our intense ability to dream big and then go after those dreams. I'm absolutely terrified of everything set out before me, but I wouldn't have it any other way. If it doesn't terrify you, the jump isn't big enough.

But most importantly...

Finding Disney References in Everyday Life 

I think this one is pretty darn obvious. Everyday Disney has become such a huge part of my life, and I really don't know what I would do without it at this point. Disney surrounds me 100% of the time. In fact, I just realized that there is literally never a second in the day where I'm not around something Disney, but that feels like a blog post for another day. Plus, I do kind of write a blog about Disney in our everyday lives...so this just seemed to call to me on a personal level.

Have a magical day!
