Easy custom monogrammed Disney Water Bottles tutorial



** This Giveaway is now Closed. The winner is announced HERE.**

I have to show you the CUTEST thing I made using my Silhouette for our Disney World Vacation:

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_10

OMG, cuteness overload, right?! I was so excited when I made them that I actually texted a picture of them to Ben and my sisters. I couldn’t wait to show you guys too!

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_9

This is why I love my Silhouette. I whipped up these Disney themed water bottles in just a few minutes, yet they look totally fabulous. Anyone can make stuff this cute. You won’t even believe how easy it is!

I found these water bottles at my local grocery store and figured they were the perfect size to lug around Disney World for a week – not too big and heavy when full, but not too tiny either.

I measured the area I wanted the vinyl name to go on each bottle, which came out to approximately 4″ wide.

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_1

To print the vinyl, I typed out the names of each of my family members in the Silhouette Software. Then I just dragged them until they were each approx. 4″ wide. “Ben” was an exception because his name is so short. His ended up being about 3″ wide.

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_3

I used a free font I downloaded (can’t remember where, sorry!) called “Waltograph42” so that our names were written in Disney font.

Once the letters were cut, it was easy as sticking the vinyl to the bottles.

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_5

From start to finish I spent maybe a total of 20 minutes on this project.

Disney_water_bottles_silhouette_6

The bottles were a huge hit, and I now have a few family members that want one for themselves!

Having the Disney themed bottles really added to the excitement and magic of the vacation. I love adding little touches like vinyl lettering to usually boring items like water bottles.
