Discover Your Inner Disney

Hey Disney Freaks! 
Ready to find your Disney Match!? Find which movie came out closest to the year you were born:)

If you were born on or before the year:

1937-Your'e classy and that's what we love about you! You're not afraid to take risks and you are a great role model for success. You're talents are amazing, but be careful not let your talents lead you astray. Even the juiciest apples can lead down the wrong path.

1950: You are elegant! You are the one everyone wants to be at the ball and your kindness and modesty attracts all who need your kindness the most.

1953- You long for adventure but sometimes you get lost. Be careful not to fall for too many lost boys and beware of the curiosity that lies in every rabbit hole.

1985- You're a home body,  but that doesn't detract from your beauty. All who know you adore your gentle compassion.

1989- You long for what you can't have and that can get you in trouble at times, but your voice in the world is beautiful and has great potential.

1991- You find beauty in everyone. You love where love is most needed.

1992- You long for true love, and you will one day find it. Keep being picky and soon you will discover a whole knew world of intimate relationships.

1996- Your adventurous! You have intense curiosity, but it always guides you in the right direction. You  see truth and greatness in everyone. You are not quick to judge and you fall in love when its least expected. 

1999- You're a risk taker. You take the battle for others and you are not afraid to explore life's jungles. All that you do is for others and you find love in the most unexpected places. 

2007- Your still young, but that doesn't stop you from finding your inner princess. You adapt to your surroundings and work hard. You are very mature for your age and are on the road to finding out what true love is all about.

Frozen Movie Review

Disney's new animated movie Frozen came out the day before Thanksgiving receiving a big 20.7 million dollars in the weekend box office, crowning itself the official "Winter movie queen" (see what I did there? ;) concluding the end of the 2013 cinema year. I know, i know, enough with the facts right!? Well...brace yourself for the critiques of a major Disney Fan!


Disney's new frozen was GREAT, but sadly it falls just a few snowflakes short of Disney's average rating of AWESOME. Now, I am not saying in anyway that the animated musical was bad, in fact I liked the movie so much that I couldn't restrain myself from singing its catchy tunes for weeks, but the movie did not hit my extremely high standards for a "classic Disney film", but rather an extremely intriguing tale.

In high respects to the Disney company, Tangled (the movie featuring Rapunzel and the dashing Flynn Rider) was still a better movie than Frozen.Frozen had few memorable songs and the lead male hardly had half of a song to sing featuring a mere acoustic guitar as his backup.Kristen Bell did an excellent job in her role, but I would have to admit that the movie would be nothing without Elsa and the empowering voice of Idina Menzel behind her. The movie needed the comedic relief of Olaf, and Olaf in return gave no lack of character. I laughed, I almost cried, and I loved mostly everything about the film. Sadly though, It does not fall under the "Classic Disney" category, but I highly recommend seeing the movie. For the very little that the movie lacks, the majestic and beautifully empowering Elsa, the fun-spirited Anna, and the hilarious Olaf will definitely make up for it and give you a week-long smile and a song to sing for weeks on end.

Frozen Inspired magnet craft

Frozen inspired magnet craft

After seeing Disney's new and amazing animated film FROZEN, I was intrigued by the power of snow and the beauty of its icy components known as snowflakes. After singing "Let it Go" for weeks on end and finding random objects in my house, i put together an easy craft that requires little assembly, a few minutes, and costs little or no money. It is easy for kids to take part in and it won't burn a whole in anyone's pockets (thank goodness).



For this craft you will need:
 
Transparent glass stones used for fish tanks/crafts, any type of magnet (I personally cut up thin magnets I didn't like that I got as a party favor gift...yes I am very cheap:), and a hot glue gun or bottle of strong glue.


Step 1:
Print out small pictures (the size of a stone) of blue snowflakes. Note that the thicker the snowflake design looks, the more it shows up in the final result. I find that Google images works best to find a wide selection of snowflake designs..

Step 2:
After printing out your small snowflakes, make sure they are the right size for your stone.Cut  them out round in the same size as the stone.

Step 3: 
Use a strong glue (I prefer a hot glue gun) to apply the snowflake to the stone. Make sure that the glue is applied on the side showing the image and stuck to the stone in an even manner and pressed with your finger so that the glue does not form a distracting blob.

Step 4:
 Apply the magnet to the stone and image in the same way you glued the paper image. You may cut up any old magnet you don't mind getting rid of or a blank magnet you can buy or might find in your crafts closet.


Ta Da! You just made a Frozen snowflake magnet! You can use this same method with any image. As soon as your glue has dried you may stick your self-made magnet (congrats on the self-made part:) to your fridge, whiteboard, etc.
