Decorating the New York City Disney Store for Christmas

Thanksgiving Day is over. Time to pull out those sparkly decorations!

I LOVE decorating for the holiday season! My two little Mouseketeers are so excited to open storage containers and unwrap treasures Mommy has collected over decades. Christmas lights accent the memories hanging on our Christmas trees (all four of them.) And Daddy braves the weather, climbs the ladder and gathers as much patience has he can while our little ones “help.”

While we just started decorating at our home, Disney Store in New York City’s Times Square was beautifully decorated for the Christmas season last week when I visited the city.  Some of you may not be able to travel to NYC this holiday season so I just have to share the Christmas transformation with you!  It’s beautiful and of course a bit “Frozen!”

On the first level of the store, a magical Mickey Mouse wreath added some festive charm to the traditional Mickey and Minnie balloons that are a staple in Disney’s NYC store.

Nope. This castle is not located in a Disney park.  It’s found on the second level of the Disney Store in Times Square!

It’s possible that Elsa had a hand in the icy transformation of the castle, because I found “Wandering Oaken’s Trading Post And Sauna” nearby.

Sven was hanging out there! Can you imagine trying to take him home?

Inside of Oaken’s children participated in a free coloring project of Mickey and Minnie Mouse masks. The kids were having a blast. I checked out the décor instead!

“Yoo-Hoo!” Big Christmas Decorating Time! (sorry couldn’t help it)

Seriously, look at the size of the ornaments hanging from the ceiling!

All joking aside, the Times Square Disney Store location is bubbling over with festive holiday décor that is truly a treat for the eyes.  If you have the opportunity to visit New York City this Christmas season, add Disney Store on your “Must Do” list.  If you’ll be too busy preparing for the holiday, I hope you enjoyed this little peek into the store!

Happy Decorating Everyone! Will you be adding a Disney touch to your castle’s holiday décor?

The Disney Shop at JCPenney

categories: Reviews

Disney Shoppe 008The Disney Shop at JCP Is Now Open!

Today I’m thrilled to share with you photos of a magical little shop tucked away inside your local JCPenney store, The Disney Shop.  A close Disney friend of mine, Keith Renard is the Visual Specialist at my local JCPenney.  Late last night he shared with me a photo of this pixie dusted place.  At that moment I knew I had to share it with all of you!  Upon sun rise today, I shared the photo with my little Mouseketeers and you can probably guess what happened next.  We jumped in the car and rushed to the store!

The Shop is simply adorable.  Looking straight into the shop, you get a feeling as if you’ve truly entered a miniature Disney Store!  The display pieces, merchandising, and product is so incredibly similar to the Disney Store.  Even the hangers appear to come from the same supplier as the Disney Store’s hangers.  The ratio of “girl” products to “boy” products is also about the same.  The Shop’s official company launch date is October 4th, so not all the product is represented in my photos.  My son, Gavin is holding out hope for some Planes themed items.  I did notice one huge difference between the Disney Store and JCPenney’s Disney Shop, the prices.  I found them to be significantly lower in the Disney Shop and yet from what I can tell the quality is the same.

Let’s Explore Inside!

Disney Shoppe 011This Minnie Mouse winter coat was my favorite find.  It’s only $34 regular price!

I must admit that I’ve never been a frequent shopper at JCPenney.  With this happy little attraction now open,  The Disney Shop at JCP is my new destination for adding a touch of Disney magic into our weekly shopping excursions!

 

 

 

Thank you again Keith for sharing this wonderful news with me and allowing me to take these photos, so I was then able to share it with all our Disney Friends!
