Disney has released a highly popular film featuring a very special family with a very special house in a very special location. Let’s just say everything in Encanto is special. After losing her husband, Abuela received a miracle. This miracle gave her a home with a personality, safety from invaders, and a great place to raise her three kids, Julieta, Pepa, and Bruno. Once her children reached a certain age, they were given a power and a huge magical bedroom. Once they grew up and had kids of their own, their children also received special powers and a large bedroom, that is, all except Mirabel.
Here is a beak down of their family and their powers.

With so many characters and so many colors, I thought it would be fun creating some adorable Cubeecrafts featuring the Family Madrigal. My Cubeecraft adventure starts with Mirabel. She is the main character of the film and has one of the most intricate costumes ever. Let me just say…liberties were taken. I did my best to keep to the film and her amazing colorful dress, but there is a lot of designs. I made sure to get the rainbow, the butterfly, and of course the tassels. The rest of the designs are inspired by her dress to the best of my ability. Hopefully everyone loves it.
Like always, this cubeecraft requires no glue, It has interlocking tabs that slide into slots to form each pieces This Cubeecraft has two parts, and you will need both to complete it.
