Here is a fun challenge when you are in the park. 3 weeks ago we took our annual trip to DL and while we were there I searched for the letters of our last name in objects or places in the park to take pictures of. Then I made this picture as a Christmas present to my in-laws, who also love DL. We saw so many new details in the park because we were looking at things differently and this was a wonderful present to give. It was just as fun as searching for hidden Mickeys!

That's a great idea, I showed my husband and he wants to try it on our next trip.... especially since our last name is Jimenez too!! Merry Christmas :) - PaintingTheRosesRed  420.8 #305 9:26PM
Great last name! :). We found the J and E to be the hardest letters to find. Well, N was a little tricky too. If you find some good ones, I would love to see them. - chantelrj  243.6 #1062 11:31PM
So cute! Does the MW Flickr account still exist? If people want to submit original size photos of the letters that they find, we could have the whole alphabet available for everyone! 😄 - Polkadobo  372.1 #370 2:57AM
Great idea! - MXPrincess399  482.1 #244 7:38AM
That's a great idea, my last name will be Hernandez :) - KimmiKitti  27.4 #4496 9:30AM

That's really cool but I wonder if I could even find a Q - brodysmommy  243.7 #1061 10:04PM
A Q might be tricky to find, but don't give up. There are all kinds of scrollwork and designs everywhere in DL and DCA. - chantelrj  243.6 #1062 11:25PM
Maybe something by Big Thunder Barbeque? - fletheartsdisney  360.2 #387 1:39PM

We bought the letter already done for my mom this year. I had our last name done like 3 years ago from a company called alphabet photography. I love this one so much more! I might do the kids names this way. What a great idea! - emnldsmom  189.3 #1754 8:53AM

OH MY GOSH! Thats my last name, and I want it! LOL We went to a staff Christmas party and the people had one with their last name (but not Disney stuff - they ordered it online). My husband loved it and I told him I was going to find stuff at Disneyland to make one for us - and you did it! That is AMAZING! Any chance of getting those pics in high quality from you - so I can get prints and make one of these? I LOVE it!!! - HarvesterProducts  167.7 #2037 11:11AM
If you DM me your email address I would be happy to send the pics to you. - chantelrj  243.6 #1062 7:47PM

Just curious, where did you find the frame? Did you have to custom order it or is there a place that has frames like this with different numbers of spots for pictures? Also, what size pictures did you use for this? Thanks in advance! - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.7 #63 7:45AM
I bought the frame at Walmart but the mat that came in the frame only had room for 6 pictures and I needed 7 so I had a custom mat made at Michael's Crafts. They can be kind of spendy but Michael's often has 50% off deals. The entire thing cost me about $50 when it was all said and done. - chantelrj  243.6 #1062 9:24AM
Thank you! I just need to find a mat for 5! - IDVandalSkipperCM  1290.7 #63 11:05AM
