Hi Alainea!
Mickey Ear hats are one of my favorite souvenEARs from Walt Disney World Resort! They are the perfect way to mark a celebration, show off your favorite Disney Character, or simply add a little bit of Disney magic to your outfit. One of my favorite pairs of Mickey Ears is the birthday ears that we got on my little Mouseketeer's third birthday and he wears them as part of his birthday celebration every year now.
Customized embroidery will make the perfect pair of Mickey or Minnie Ears even more special. In general, you'll find that Ear hats have designs on the front of them that don't leave enough room for custom embroidery, but they do generally have a large space on the back that leaves plenty of room for customization so you can make them yours.
My favorite location to grab customized Mickey Ears is at
Curtain Call Collectibles in
Magic Kingdom. I recommend that once you find the perfect pair of Ears, ask the Cast Members at Curtain Call Collectibles about the customization options for your chosen hat to determine if there's room for any customization on the front.
Alainea, be sure to follow the
