Free Printable Inside Out Paper Chains
We have updated our original Inside Out Paper Chains for the release of Disney Pixar’s Inside Out 2 (the sequel to Inside Out, 2015)!
Like our updated Inside Out Cupcake Wrappers and Inside Out Cupcake Toppers, they were part of my 100 Days of Disney series in 2015. In addition to these updates, we are creating a new set of printables, including napkin rings, labels for party favors, food flags, party invitations, water bottle labels, and more.
These new printables are perfect for an Inside Out birthday party, Pixar’s Inside Out movie night, or a fun way to countdown to your Disney vacation!
More Disney Paper Chains!
We have several more Disney-themed paper chains that you will love:
What is Inside Out 2 About?
Inside Out 2 follows Riley as she navigates adolescence, facing new challenges and social anxieties. In her mind, a demolition crew represents the intense changes she’s experiencing. The new emotion, Anxiety, plays a significant role in depicting teen social anxieties.
The story covers Riley making new friends, managing stress from hockey, and dealing with typical teenage highs and lows and the emotions that come with that, like Envy, Ennui (a feeling of weariness and dissatisfaction), and Embarrassment.
What’s Included in Your Printable Set?
Our free printable Inside Out paper chains come in three delightful sets, ensuring there’s something for every fan of the movies. Here’s what you can expect:
- Set 1: Character Colors: This set includes 12 paper chains, each designed in bold colors representing key characters—Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust, Anger, Bing Bong, Riley, Anxiety, Envy, Ennui, Embarrassment, and Nostalgia. Each chain features a flat-style design that captures the essence of each character. You won’t find these designs anywhere else!
- Set 2: Character Backgrounds: This set perfectly complements our Inside Out-themed Cupcake Wrappers and Cupcake Toppers. Riley, Bing Bong, and all the emotions are set against a single-color background, ideal for creating a cohesive look at your party.
- Set 3: Matching Colors: For those who prefer simplicity, this set offers plain color chains that match the movie characters. These are great for more understated decorations or mixing and matching with the other more detailed sets.
How To Make Paper Chains
Paper chains are one of the cheapest and easiest party decorations you can make! All you need are strips of paper and some glue or sticky tape.
- Download the free printable PDF with 36 different paper chain designs—12 designs per page—to your device.
- Print as many sheets of paper chain strips as you need. Cut each strip using scissors or a paper trimmer.
- Take one of the strips, add a dab of glue—we like glue roller for less mess and quick drying—on one end, and fold it around to form a circle. This is the first link/loop in your chain. Now, slide another strip of paper into that link, add a dab of glue on the end, and fold around to form a circle attached to the first loop.
- Continue linking the loops until you reach the desired length of chain, then hang it across walls, mantles, or anywhere else you want to decorate!
- Vacation Countdown: Make a chain with as many links as days left until your holiday. Cut off one of the links each day until you are down to zero and ready to head to Disney!
Ways to Use Your Inside Out Paper Chains
Our paper chains aren’t just beautiful; they’re versatile too! Here are some fun ways to use them:
- Party Decorations: String them around the room to add a thematic touch to your Inside Out party.
- Movie Night Magic: These chains are perfect for adding themed decor to your movie night. Why not set out a Movie Night Snack Board?
- Disney Vacation Countdown: Build excitement for your upcoming Disney trip by removing a daily link as you count down to your vacation.
- Crafting Fun: Enhance fine motor skills and scissor practice for little ones as they cut and assemble the chains.
