Disney survival kits?

[pixeemom]

so i was in Michaels today and saw a book about scrapbooking and little do dads all DISNEY THEMED and I saw this cute idea it was called a Disney survival kit made out of a paint can, all disneyed out, and inside of it were cute things, like you can put an autograph book and pens, and a roll of film and a bag of some kinda snack...
so now i am trying to hunt down any type of picture of it because i want to show my friend....
does anyone know of such a thing? or have any pics themselves they can share?
TIA
danielle

Give me a moment and I'll post a link!
WE did this not long ago as a swap.. (not goodies inside, just the paint cans)

Here is a great link for them...

I did a google search for "altered paint cans". The swap was hosted here in 2006....but on a quick glance there were no photos...
Let me look around a little further and see if I can find measurements from the 2006 swap..

Here are some measurements for the Quart Size cans:

I was doing some quart cans for another swap and decided to actually write down the measurements for the paper for a quart-sized can in case it would help anybody:
I used two sheets of cardstock 6 3/4" wide by 4 5/8" high. The seams overlap a little. I used ModgePodge/double side tape to adhere the paper. If you use modge podge you need another layer of the modge podge to seal it.

For the lid, I used my Cricut to cut a perfect 3" circle. If I had the option (but I don't), 3 1/4" might be a little better but the perfect circle is wonderful!

It looks like you can make 3 cans with two sheets of paper if you have an allover pattern.


Here are the measurements for the gallon paint cans.. Here is a great site for the gallon size altered paint cans..

Hope this helps!

Ok, i love that can! Want to make it for a raffle we are having at Texas Roadhouse on Feb 8th to raise money for the student trip. Even with my magnifying glass, I can't read all the stuff on the notes to each side- are they directions? Can someone please point me in that direction? Can get to Michael's tomorrow to get the mod podge, need a paint can but have enough Disney stuff here to decorate it. Thanks. Caroline

It's not Disney, but look at these cute cans!

I heart SVG cuts. Love Buckets.

 

[lovingthemouse]

Thanks Michelle - since our student trip is to Disney, I'd really like to get the Disney can done before our fundraiser on Feb 8. It has been 5 yrs since my last WDW students' trip and I am so lucky to have this chance again. I have 25 6th and 7th graders going.

Caroline, I'm still waiting for my chaperone permission slip!!!
LOL


OK fine print, I need a magnifying glass for the book too!

This Kit Contains:
Sunscreen - for the sunshiny weather
Extra Film - for all those "gotta have" shots
Kleenex - to dry the tears when you have to leave
Candy - to much on while waiting in line
Autograph book - gotta have one of those
Pens- for all those autographs
Bandaids - for the blisters you're sure to get because you just won't want to leave
Info, Info and more Info! - lots of stuff you need to know about how to get where you want to go

Best Wishes and Happy Holidays,
dot dot dot dot

Thanks Bamb - i am trying to come up with some great raffle things for our table inside the restaurant - have this, a CM Disney picfolio, a snow globe but would like to have a few more things - any ideas? These kids are working hard at fundraising, and our time is getting shorter. Thanks. Caroline

Let me think about it overnight.
Are we strictly doing a Disney theme?

How about some t-shirts? Disney journal (cover composition books with Disney paper)

I have some quart size cans I would be willing to donate. I can probably scrounge up some pins and a lanyard too.

ETA: I could make some Disney themed post it note books too

Yup, that is it!

And here is a close up of the text (Nice and big! It is absolutely tiny in the book!):

Sorry I did not check back yesterday, I was organizing my scrapping area alllll day long!

I think instead of film I'd go with a disposable waterproof camera. Be sure to post pics of the cans you make.
