[#AtoZChallenge] E is for...Esmerelda

I don't know why the name was the first to come to mind but after it did I then had to remember if I had made her up. Then I remembered the Hunchback of Notre Dame. When I thought about it I then wondered if it was even a Disney film?!

A quick Google search tells me that it is, I watched the film once a couple of years ago and my lasting memory was that it was good but seemed quite long. This however, could be due to not actually having sat and watched it properly due to distraction. 

Ok...wait...what?! There's a Hunchback of Notre Dame II?

Have you seen it? What are your favourite parts? What are your least favourite? 

Here are some crafts I found on the theme...

Adult colouring is all the rage here at the moment as a way to destress and relax. The designs remind me of zentangle. This is neither but you can colour it in 😁


What else....hmmm....well I have a sewing machine and I have always wanted to learn to use it so that I can make fancy dress costumes....for my nieces of course...not me...👀



Whilst trying to find another craft, I came across some quotes from the movie and I should really watch it again.

I decided to try and find how to make your own tambourine, and came across this idea for a wedding. I'm a hippy at heart so I thought it was kinda cool!

    1. My sister has the adult colouring and I like the designs which would make lovely cross stitch cushion covers, and you could try out your own colours etc.

  5. Don't get me started on the crappy quality of 2 vs 1 or their lack of getting the same voice actors for both movies (they could have least found "similar" sounding actors), but yes, the first was a very long movie actually (although parts of it weren't that bad).
