One of the most popular attractions at any Walt Disney World themepark is the Disney characters - you can often stand in longer lines to collect an autograph and pose with your favourite character than for the headliner rides! If you plan to collect character autographs then you will need a Disney Autograph Book- you can either buy a blank book when you arrive at the Walt Disney World Resort - or you can have some fun and make your own at home.

When we travelled to Walt Disney World for our Disney Wedding and Honeymoon in 2005 I decided that I would like to collect some autographs - but wanted something different to the standard book they sell in the parks.

How to make a Disney autograph book

I searched the Internet and made a list of all of the Disney characters that appear in the parks and then settled down in front of the computer to design a customised p

age for each of the characters. I used pictures of each character and added quotes from their movies, or lyrics from songs to decorate the pages.

After creating a page for each character I printed them out and glued them into a spiral notebook. I glued the images to the right hand pages of the book, leaving the left-hand pages empty to add photographs after the trip.

This worked really well - but I think if I were to make another autograph book in the future I would keep the pages loose and use a clipboard to hold them together. That way you can leave signed pages in your hotel room so they won't get ruined. You can then either slip the autographs into a photo album with the photos or use them for scrapbooking.

The character reactions...

When I got to the parks I was quite shy lining up to have my photo taken amongst all of the children in the line - but the characters loved their pages! The page I made for Flik had a picture of Hopper on it and when Flik saw it he put his hands over his eyes in fear and pretended to run away *lol*

Download Your Autograph Book Pages

I spent many hours designing my pages but it was worth the effort. In order to spread the pixie dust further I have put them all into a pdf file that you can download and print to make your own Disney autograph book. If you would like to use my pages to make your own book follow these simple instructions:
  1. Download the Autograph Pages: Download Part 1 | Download Part 2
  2. Print these out on good quality paper - each image will print at 6x4 inches
  3. Then either use a clipboard to keep the pages loose, or stick them into a hardback notebook.
  4. Grab a thick stubby felt tip pen for the characters to sign with and you're ready to start collecting autographs!
Have fun!

Top Tip: Use a ziplock plastic bag to keep the pages dry
