Disney Just Banned a Popular Princess Accessory—But Why?

Magic Kingdom Park has quietly made a change impacting Disney Princess fans of all ages. Crystal Arts, a shop on Main Street, U.S.A., has abruptly stopped offering its build-your-own-tiara experience for guests.

Crystal Arts is one of multiple Walt Disney World Resort merchandise locations operated by Arribas Brothers. The luxury glass and crystal arts brand also has a location at Disney Springs and kiosks throughout the EPCOT World Showcase, offering everything from miniature glass models and personalized mugs to a $250,000 model of Cinderella Castle.

One of Crystal Arts’ most popular offerings is the make-your-own-tiara experience called “The Arribas Tiara Foundry,” which arrived at Magic Kingdom Park in January. The base experience costs $89, with optional add-ons including a carrying bag and a display pillow. Guests can choose from over 30 gem options to decorate one of three base tiara designs in rose gold, gold, or silver.

This experience is only available at Magic Kingdom Park, not at Disney Springs or any EPCOT Arribas Brothers locations. Unfortunately, though, future guests hoping for a magical, Disney Princess-inspired experience on Main Street, U.S.A., will be sorely disappointed.

According to a post on X (formerly Twitter) from @WDWNT, Crystal Arts is currently sold out of the build-your-own-tiara experience. The account shared photos from the store, which still displays sample tiaras, gem options, and add-ons.

Crystal Arts hasn’t publicly acknowledged this change or announced when the build-your-own-tiara experience will return to Main Street, U.S.A A. It’s unclear whether Arribas Brothers has plans to expand the offering beyond Magic Kingdom Park to other Walt Disney World Resort locations.
