Mickey mouse themed party

[Maria]

Hi guys, i am supposed to be doing a party this weekend and the teme of the party is Mickey Mouse. I am stumped as to what i can actually draw to bring ths party to life....except mickey and minnue of course.  Any suggestions?

There's a cute one of Donald duck somewhere.  Im sure Daffy would be the same without the cap, and just a black rounded head between the eyebrows and a few whispy feathers....?  I found the pic.  There's also pluto on there (all disney characters and friends of mickey/minnie) Forgot which site and who it came from, but it isnt mine.  If anyone know, pls give them credit for originally sharing....

Thanks a lot.  I will probably do some princess and fairy designs as well. you know to capture that magical walt disney feeling.

My Aunt and Uncle took this pic while on vacation at Disney this spring.

Maria,  Good luck at your party and let us know how it goes.

okay, so the party went better than i thought.  I did butterflies, a few princess designs and the boys wanted spiderman or batman.  My brush started to freak out like the paint was clogging it and no matter how much i wash it out it kept getting flat which made painting flowers difficult.

oh and my camera wouldnt work so i didnt get any pics

Isnt it funny how they can have a theme and the designs you end up doing have nothing to do with the theme?

One party I  did at a school, I took in pictures of different designs, showed each kiddo 3 and let them pic from those, and then I didnt end up with any duplicates.  Kept things interesting for everyone, especially me ;o)

On the clogged paint....I know exactly what you mean!  How frustrating....

I agree, alot of parties have set themes, but you never really stick to the theme anyways.
I had a ben 10 party and practiced all 10 monsters like crazy, i didn't end up doing any of them

I did a party couple weeks ago and all of the girls wanted butterflies which was good because they are fast to paint but i sorta got tired of doing butterflies and decided to switch it up a bit. 

Clogged paint: I bought this thing called 'brush bath' from silly farm. You just add a few drops to the rinsing water. It is supposed to sanitize and clean the brush while you paint and it is safe to use on the skin.  I hope that it helps with that clogging brush issue I had.
