Spring is on its way, and with it, some new merchandise!
Disney’s four theme parks are full of awe-inspiring entertainment, characters, and delicious food – enough to make lifelong memories for every Guest who enters the magic.
From the new “Beacons of Magic” in Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom as part of Walt Disney World’s 50th anniversary celebration, to new attractions like Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance and Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway, there’s so much to enjoy at the Orlando Resort right now.
And what better way to keep that lifelong memory than a piece of exciting merchandise?
We spotted a fun new Minnie ear headband this weekend at Walt Disney World in Florida, with the usual Minnie bow replaced by foliage.
Just in time for Spring, the new purple headband can be found at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort in California.
In Walt Disney World, we found it at the Emporium in Magic Kingdom and World of Disney at Disney Springs. The flowery headband can also be found at Los Feliz Five and Dime in Disney’s California Adventure.
The usual Minnie bow is replaced by purple and lilac flowers lining the top of the headband, alongside some green foilage.
The ears are priced at $29.99, and are pretty light!
Many Disney fans we spoke to believed that the ears were beautiful, but that they reminded them of ears found on the online marketplace store Etsy.
Lately, Disney has introduced an array of new Minnie ear styles that go outside of their usual designs and patterns. The Etsy market for Disney ears has exploded in the last few years, competing strongly with Disney’s sales of ears – particularly as they typically come in at a lower price.
We must admit, these ears do look a lot like Minnie ears we have seen on Instagram!
We’ll have to see what Disney has in store for the summer when it comes to merchandise. Last year we saw new Polynesian Resort ears complete with hibiscus flowers and tiki-style.
