Which brings me to the traditional Disney autograph book. While it is great fun collecting autographs from favorite characters, I really don’t see the point of the book – besides being something to buy and then cart around the parks on your vacation! And even my kids will agree that the books really have no purpose once you return home. They often just get put away or lost in the caverns of a young person’s bedroom. Well, I decided that if I was going to spend precious vacation time waiting in line for character autographs, it was going to be with a purpose! So, I came up with the idea of a Disney character autograph photo mat. What a simple and easy idea! Before our trip, I ran over to the local craft store and purchased three photo mats Note: Many of the character costumes cover their hands and it is easier for them to handle the fat markers than a regular sized pen.
Then, throughout our vacation, the kids had the characters sign these photo mats. We didn’t carry them around every day, just the first few and only until the mats were full of signatures. We made sure that we saw the favorite characters and that all of the marker colors were used on each mat. After returning home, each of my sons chose their favorite photo of himself to frame with the mat. We then placed the mats in the frames and hung them in a prominent place in our home. We enjoy these photos each and every day – much more than we would ever enjoy the autograph books! You too can easily make these photo mats to commemorate your Disney trip. You can find everything you need at neighborhood stores or you can check Amazon.com for photo mats Here are tips for collecting Disney Character autographs:
