    Kim Tries: Nail Art – from Pixar’s Up!

    There are so many fun and creative ways to bring a Disney flair into your daily life. I love rocking a great Disney-inspired manicure when I go to the parks, but nail art is also a great way to bring magic back home. It can be a lot of fun to get pampered with some dazzling nails, but there are plenty of adorable designs you can do at home! For this at-home experiment, I tried to re-create Up-inspired nail art designed by @polishandbeyond!

Here’s how we worked with the Mouse to bring Disney to our Rhode Island wedding.

Finally, last Saturday, I got to see my favorite Disney character take flight again, and steal away my heart once more.

    Disneybounding for Beginners

    Before the summer of 2016, “Disneybound” meant “going to Disney!” – wonderful in its own right, don’t get me wrong, but now, “Disneybound” means so. much. more.
