If you're anything like us, you may find yourself spending more time at home than usual. With that in mind, we've created a roundup of Disney crafts you can do to create some Disney magic at home!
 
These Disney crafts are perfect for families to do together to celebrate all things Disney. We hope you find something on this list of crafts that helps you stay busy while the whole country is practicing social distancing. Some are so easy that all you'll need is paper and a printer! Others include items you may already have around. And if not, we've updated many of the posts to include supply lists so you can head to Amazon and order anything you need for our favorite Disney crafts. When you're done with all your at-home crafts, consider signing up for Hulu and adding the Disney+ upgrade!

Our Disney craft ideas range from Star Wars to classic Mickey and everything in between.

Anonymous- We're so glad you found some fun ideas for your daughter and her family! These crafts and recipes are a great way to bring Disney magic to the home during this unusual time :)


Julie - Thanks for stopping by!


Thank you for these great ideas! My daughter, her husband, and their kids went to Disneyland at the beginning of the week that Disneyland shut down. They are now on a self-imposed quarantine through next week. I am printing these off and dropping them off on their front porch so we can say our hi’s through the front windows like we have been doing since they got home! They will love these ideas!


Wow this is amazing!!
