Disney puzzles can be a great way to pass the time. Some Disney puzzles however, are just such breathtaking images that I can’t get enough of. The Tenyo Disney Stained Glass Art Jigsaw Puzzle is no exception!
Stained glass renditions of your favorite Disney characters come together to create a gorgeous kaleidoscope of colors and magic. This is a larger puzzle, with 1000 pieces to assemble and gaze upon. The Fab Five start off the center, and many more iconic character bloom from there into a stunning flower of art. I love that the corners of this puzzle feature popular Disney villains as well! I think this would be another fantastic addition to have for family game and activity nights.
I’ve got another adorable Disneyland holiday snack to share with all you Disney foodies, Mickey Mouse shaped Candy Cane Beignets! Beignets is a french term for a pastry made from deep-fried choux pastry. They are typically sprinkled with confectioner’s sugar, but the holiday inspired versions currently available at the Disneyland Resort are dusted with crushed candy canes, giving them a refreshing peppermint flavor.
The delicious Mickey-shaped treats are available for a limited time only. Have you tried the new Candy Cane Beignets? Share your thoughts on the sweet snack in the comments below.

The Disney Parks always make me feel “HOME“, but our own home can be sweet with Disney touches too. Nothing is as welcoming as seeing the castle at your front door every time you return home. Thanks to this Disney Doormat by Franklin and Figg on Etsy, we can have that experience.
These beautifully rustic coir mats are hand painted with the Disney Castle, and will welcome you home with a little Disney magic. The artist uses UV and weather protective paint, so you don’t have to worry about your rug enduring the elements. They also come with a latex backing to keep them from sliding around. Coir mats are also very easy to clean, just shake them out really well, and you’re good to go! They even have an option for a Personalized Name Disney doormat, that has your last name written in the iconic style we know so well. “Home Sweet Home” is my favorite, but you can check out all the beautiful varieties available below.
A girl has to look stylish, even when she is on the sporting field. Minnie Mouse recently debuted her new soccer uniform at the 2017 Disney Girls Showcase presented by AS Roma at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.
Minnie’s new uniform is a purple and white horizontal striped jersey with purple shorts and is finished off with a red headband. Her new uniform features the No. 9, the same number as the most well-known women’s soccer player of all-time, two-time Olympic Gold medalist Mia Hamm.
This year, Disney Girls Soccer Showcase was re-imagined with new dates and expanded to include U11-U14 age groups. The showcase features many of the top high school soccer prospects in the country, many of whom will be playing on the collegiate level soon.
Look for Minnie in her new soccer outfit at future soccer events, which are listed at espnwwos.com.

I love decking the halls in Disney inspired Christmas decorations, I really love using the traditional cheerful red, and jolly greens too. You can never have too many wreath decorations either, because they make great statement pieces on walls, doors, and even mantles. I really enjoyed the charming look of the Mickey Holly Wreath from the Disney Parks, and was excited to see it available online.
Mickey Mouse Icon Wreath Ornament
This wreath definetly says happy holly-days! It was created with soft, fabric holly leaves and shaped into Mickey’s iconic likeness. The festive ornament is decorated with hidden Mickeys too! The “holly berries” are actually buttons fashioned into little hidden Mickeys. Each leaf is individually cut to give it a really full look. The red grosgrain bow is the perfect finishing touch. There is even a matching red grosgrain ribbon for hanging!
Would you deck the halls in your home with this charming Mickey Holly Wreath from the Disney Parks?

One of my favorite things to hear is “Welcome Home” when ever I arrive at Disney! Since I can’t live at Disney, it’s nice to have a Disney welcome at my real home too. This Disney Welcome Mat will welcome you, and your guests home the Disney way.
This Disney inspired mat is a laser engraved coconut hair door mat. The laser engraving produces a tonal color which is a dark brown on this material, for a contrasting design. No paints are used on this mat, so you won’t have to worry about scuffing or chipping! The mat spells out “Home Sweet Home” with Mickey and Minnie icons representing the “O”s. With such a whimsically fun mat, you and your guests will have a magical welcome each time your or them arrive at your door. I love that it’s a nice sturdy mat, and simple, instead of flimsy and cartoonish. That makes it perfect for a sophisticated touch of Disney at any home.
Chip and Co reader, Ashely K. Carnes, shared this easy-to-follow tutorial and fantastic photos for creating a beautiful Mickey Head Bulb Wreath and I can’t wait to make my own!
What you’ll need:
ONE 18” Biodegradable Floral Craft Ring /EZ Glueable wreath form (see photo example)
TWO 12” Biodegradable Floral Craft Rings/ EZ Glueable wreath form
Cable Ties (12″ or larger)
Garland (any color)
Glue Gun & Glue Sticks
Shatterproof Christmas bulbs with metal or plastic top removed
Instruction:
1.Using the rings/wreath form, create a Mickey head. Ear placement is extremely important – otherwise it just doesn’t look like Mickey. About 6 or 6.5 in between the ears (or half the size of the wreath) seems to be a good placement. Secure the smaller wreaths to the larger using the cable ties – making sure they are tight enough so they won’t move.
2. Wrap the garland, snuggly, around the wreath, making sure it is completely covered. Use the hot glue gun to secure each end to the wreath. You’ll need more than one strand of garland, most likely.
You can see the garland in this photo!
3. Create the loop to hang your wreath. Using a cable tie, place it in the center of the Mickey head (between the ears) and pull it tightly. Take another cable tie and loop it through the first, securing it like a chain and giving yourself a way to hang it on a hook once finished.
4. Now it’s time to add the bulbs using the hot glue gun! This is all about how YOU want it to look – all one color, multi-colored, different sizes, etc.. It seems to work best by starting on the inside and outside of the wreathes and filling in from there, like a puzzle!
Please note, this wreath will be VERY heavy. Please keep that in mind when choosing how you want to hang it on the wall (no 2 or 3lb 3M hooks!).
Will you be making this Mickey Head Bulb Wreath to add to your holiday decorations? We’d love to see yours if you do!
Disney Sports is proud to announce it is presenting the Iowa football program with its coveted Disney Sports Spirit Award, which annually goes to the sport’s most inspirational figures.
The University of Iowa football program is lifting the spirits of sick children this season. At the end of the first quarter of every home game, their Kinnick Stadium announcer urges all fans inside the stadium to turn and wave to the young patients staying at the children’s hospital that’s next door to the stadium. Even the referees and visiting teams join in with this heartfelt gesture.
As a result of this simple act of kindness, the young patients staying in the hospital overlooking the stadium are more optimistic and hopeful.
Check out this touching ESPN feature story on the “Kinnick Wave” and how it is changing lives every Saturday afternoon.
Witness the award being given to the Iowa football program on December 7 on ESPN during The Home Depot College Football Awards Show.
There is just something so wonderful about Christmas lights, that they really inspire magic for me every holiday season. I love wearing Christmas light necklaces, jewelry, even shirts with holiday lights designs printed on them. So of course I fell in love with these Christmas Lights Minnie Ears from Wayho Ears on Etsy.
I love the delicate mini light strings swirling around the contrasting snow white background. The smaller lights add a charming daintiness to the ears. You can get them with your choice of a red, silver, pink, or blue sequin bow too, so that they will be uniquely you! There’s also a pair of Gingerbread Man ears with a candy striped bow that have also stolen my heart!
These ears, plus other gorgeous Christmas ears are on sale today for Small Business Saturday, and ready to ship in 1-2 days!
Yes, I am here to share with you another delicious holiday treat from Disneyland! The Disneyland Resort in California has released new cotton candy flavors for the holiday season. The first is an Apple Cinnamon cotton candy, the perfect flavor profile to mark the transition from Fall to Winter. The second newly released flavor is the Candy Cane cotton candy, this fluffy peppermint treat makes the Christmas celebration at Disneyland Park even more magical.

Both flavors sound delicious, and cotton candy makes a great on-the-go snack that is easily wrapped up to enjoy throughout the day. If the sugary treat doesn’t top your list of snacking choices, consider one of the other seasonal goodies you can find around the Disneyland Resort this holiday season.

Argh Maties, Christmas time is here, and it’s time to start decking the halls. We love to have Disney character stockings that represent our personalities, or favorite characters in our family. My mom is a huge fan of pirates, and she’s a total dog lover, so I know shes’ going to love having the Pirate Pluto Holiday Stocking as her special Christmas stocking at my house this year.
This fun stocking is shaped like a pirate’s boot and has Pluto all decked out and ready to hide holiday treasure. He’s all set to sail on the iconic Pirates of the Caribbean attraction. If he were holding those keys, might he give them over though? This is a great stocking for Pluto or Pirates fans alike!
