Now's When My Life Begins: August 2013

Its only been THREE months since I posted!!!! ( not Five like I promised I wouldn't wait)

In all seriousness, I am sooo sorry once again! I have been really busy this summer and I've really missed my blog! I really want to get back to posting at least semi-regularly! I'm so ashamed!

So, I have many, many things to write about! First of all, Disney is trying to get ALL of my money! Seriously... This is the "year of the little mermaid" which is my favorite movie of all time and there is a ton of merchandise! I still have to pre-order the DVD ( I have the one that was released in 2006, but you never know... It could get damaged or something like that, so its best to have a spare)

I also managed to pre-order the Limited Edition 17" Ariel doll from the disney store online! I am so excited and can't wait for her to come in october!

Isn't she gorgeous? Oh and TheyCallMeObsessed has some really amazing photos on their flickr! You should check it out! :)

AND we're getting TWO other dolls with Ariel!! URSULA and ERIC!! :D

Eric is Limited Edition 1500 and Ursula is Limited edition 2000

For better pictures of both dolls, see Drj1828 on flickr!

Oh and then came the Disney Fairytale Designer Collection announcement:

My favorites in this set are Ariel and Eric, Rapunzel and Flynn Rider, and Belle and Beast.

Let's face it... Ariel and Eric are ADORABLE. I am in love with Ariel's blue gown and its embroidery and just how sweet they are. Ariel and Eric are my favorite disney couple in general so I really do love this set.

Here is the release date information for the dolls:

Snow White and the Prince have already been released in stores and online. The dolls are still available online.

Each couple in the set retails for $129.99 in the US.

The next couple to be released is Rapunzel and Flynn in stores on September 3rd and online September 4th.

I hope it won't be too crazy and that I can get them.

Along with the dolls Disney released a lot of beautiful merchandise including shirts, mugs, journals, jewelry, disney pins, notecards and more:

Here is a screenshot I took today of what is remaining:

I, personally would love to get the Rapunzel and Ariel journals, the notecards and the rapunzel shirt.

All of the mugs, pins, and lithographs are sold out online.

I was able to get the Ariel and Rapunzel mugs when I went to my disney store in the mall. I was so excited to see everything that I snapped a bunch of pictures. they aren't all clear and I would love to go back soon and get better pictures:

I was so happy to see the dolls in person!

All of the designer merchandise was previewed at the D23 Expo recently. At the expo they had a special version of the snow white and the prince couple with a gold color scheme ( like the silver Cinderella from the original designer line)

It was a limited editon of 600 dolls.

The whole Disney fairytale designer collection PIN situation was abysmal.....

People lined up overnight and did not recieve pins, there were people hoarding pins sets until their friends could get in and buy them, pin sets were left on the display floor instead of behind a counter... And they were sold to sorceror's package holders first for all three days of the expo. So now sets are selling on ebay for $1000 and over. A handful of people were able to get the set when the pins suddenly came online. I was not one of those people.

*sigh* Oh well..

My favorites in this set were Ariel/Eric, Rapunzel and Flynn and Belle and Beast ( just like the dolls)

I am in love with the Airel and Eric pin, but there is NO way I can spend $200+ for a single pin. That's how much the set retailed for!

*sigh* Isn't it gorgeous?

Oh and I just finished working on an amazingly fun project!!!

Custom disney shoes!!

I bought some white canvas shoes and used permanent markers and acrylic paint to decorate them! It was a lot of fun! I am going over the details of opening an etsy shop to start making these!
