Ceremonies are a celebration, but the actual BIRTHDAY is deemed much more important. Gifts are a constant, but birthdays are special. They exist to celebrate that you actually made it this long.
Mirabel does get a gift in this au but I’m not sure what yet. I just know it’s something that has to do with creation.
Shells are used as currency, but some shells are left on the beach in case some sea creature needs it. As well as that, when baby turtles are hatching from the sand the villagers make sure to protect the lil dudes until they get to the water. It’s a tradition Pedro and his wifey started and everybody just hopped on board.
Dolores’ gift is something she can turn on and off at will. I saw someone have this theory and I stick with it. There’s no way in god's green earth Casita would give a gift of super hearing without giving her a choice in whether she can turn it on or off.
Now, Julieta’s food is truly loved but her shaved ice and paletas (Ice pops) are a must have. Especially during the summer. She doesn’t use her gift all that much unless it’s an emergency. So, she has no problem setting up a cart to give out summer treats and such. (But her family always get first dibs)
Mariano and Dolores are getting married soon! It’ll be a beach wedding of course. The dress won’t be too big, seeing as it’s a little toasty in Encanto (I mean, people can do it but it’s going to be a hot wedding day if they do). Traditional wedding dresses in Encanto are sheer and short or with a long mermaid tail look but thin.
Oh yeah, Isabela is a certified surfer (all the madrigals are) but she likes doing it more often.
LETS GOOOOOOO
Shells as currency is so cool. <33 I mean, it’s an island, currency being shells isn’t obviously an issue 😭 ALSO THE BABY TURTLES I’M CRYING 🦈🦈🦈 everybody hoping on board is so silly.
Love this au sm <3333 I like how the birthdays are way more important than the gift <333 like it’s not a ceremony, it’s a birthday celebration. I imagine the gifts are just viewed as some present by the candle/Casita. W Casita for letting Dolores’ gifts being a choice 🙏
I think?? They would still wear white/gold on their birthday, but they do that so that whoever’s birthday it is can stand out. Not that it’s hard to tell. Their birthday parties are always beach parties; I think Pedro and Alma gift them their first surfboard on their 5th birthday, cause they see them as old enough to start learning how to surf lmao
W Isabela and Julieta. Isabela has way too much fun in Isabela when she’s surfing. I also think she’s one of the main ones to help Antonio’s learn how (besides Mirabel), and I think she also insisted on teach Mirabel and Camilo when they were little.
I am supposed to work on my YouTube video but look at me I'm making more fanart XD
BeachTown! Wally Darling by PinkSugarBerry!
I absolutely love how this turned out!!!
And the little bit of French text is from a song, 'Sur la planche' by 'La Femme' which I used to love listening to as a kid... And this AU reminded me of it! Let's just say it unlocked a core memory ^^ (and yes I listened to it on repeat while making the fanart haha)
(please don't sue me for how the water looks like :'))
These are a few of my favorite Welcome Home aus so of course I had to draw them.
You can see that some drawings are better than others, that is because those are drawn last and I was somehow able to gain motivation while drawing to keep drawing better. Crazy how that happens lol!
A/N: I am making y/n art digitally, which is taking me a long time b/c a bit a lack of motivation and changing the design of them, but EVENTUALLY I will finish them and then redo wally since I want them to feel more like original wally in design wise and personality

Basically, just the Encanto but with a tropical beach (maybe somewhat of an Island?) attached to it. Also, the environment is very calming and relaxing.
In other words, this AU is just hippie Madrigals with a beach aesthetic. Everybody is super chill and just ✨vibing✨. No pressure, no unreachable expectations, just a happy family. Oh yeah, Pedro lives in this au. He just has some scars (and it's hard for him to move about because of them)
Food truck au:
An au (modern) where Julieta owns her own food truck full of Colombian cuisine. It's just her, her husband, and her three daughters in this au. Just a mama trying to earn a living. It's mostly wholesome with some trials and tribulations.
But overall very cute!
Food truck so cool, working 9 to 5 🦈🦈
BUT I LOVE BEACH AU RAHHHHHHHH 🦅🦅🦅 omg an island would be so cool. ALSO PEDRO LOVES LETS GOOOOO WE LOVE THAT <333 I love vibing. Omg I love happy Madrigals au, they fr happy from the start (LAUFEY⁉️⁉️)
I managed to find the template AND the font for the about and I’m happy the about feels almost accurate and also I sort of gave up trying to get the style to be as accurate as possible as the creator ( pinksugarberry on TikTok!) but hey it’s okay right?
