I don’t know about you, but I’m wishing I could be in Disneyland right now.

We had a trip scheduled for November, but unfortunately, we lost hope that Disneyland would somehow open, and we ended up cancelling that trip.

But that doesn’t mean I can’t make mouse ears still, right?!

I have been wanting to make DIY Mouse Ears with. my Cricut for awhile now, and since it’s Halloween time, I thought it would be the perfect time.

You can wear these ears to celebrate your love of Disney or just to make a fun, last-minute costume. They are so easy to make – my kids thought they were so fun! Just draw some whiskers and a nose, and you’re good to go with an awesome costume!

PDF and SVG File

I have provided a PDF pattern and an SVG file as well. You will want to use the SVG File if you are making these with your Cricut machine (or another personal cutting machine). You can upload it and adjust to your preferred size.

If you are cutting these out by hand, you will just need to print out the PDF pattern. The only issue with the PDF pattern is that you can’t really adjust it very well if you have different sized headbands – however, these should work on most standard-sized headbands.

Headbands for Mouse Ears

We bought our headbands from Joann’s. They had TONS of colors and sizes, and they aren’t very expensive. I would imagine most craft stores have them.

You could also buy some on Amazon or head to The Dollar Tree to see what you can find!

No-Sew Mouse Ears

For these mouse ears, I chose to use kraft board. It’s pretty sturdy, but if you want something that is a little thicker, you may want to use chipboard – or you could even glue two pieces of chipboard together.

These aren’t the fanciest or sturdiest mouse ears around, but they are a lot of fun and you can easily customize them with glitter, paint, vinyl…whatever your heart’s content is!

Materials:

Chipboard in coordinating color (I used the Cricut sample that had brown, black, and white)
Headband
Hot Glue Gun
Printer and Scissors or Cricut Machine (or other personal cutting machine)
Fine Point Blade (for Cricut)
Cutting mat (for Cricut)
Hot glue gun with hot glue
Decals for decorating – I used glitter, and that turned out really fun!
