    Is the mouse ear headband painting personalization available in Downtown Disney or California Adventure?

    Hi Emeri,

    Thanks for visiting planDisney. A pair of Mickey or Minnie ears are a great way to remember your trip, or a special event at the Disneyland Parks. I have ears for graduation, ears for Christmas and even ears for Star Wars events. As you may know, guests can add a special touch to their items by getting them embroidered and hand painted. You have come to the right place, I can let you know where to head to add a little magic to your items. 

    If you are looking to get leather Mickey ears customized with hand painted decoration, then you will need to head over to the Plaza Point inside Disneyland. Plaza point is currently the only place you can customize leather ears or ornaments. There is a book of designs that you can choose from including pixie dust and fireworks. I was recently at Disneyland, and they had some amazing ears on display that had a valentine design and one that had a Lunar New Year design. You could also add a name, year, or number; this is a great idea for a birthday or graduation. You could also add a month, day, and year to mark a special occasion like an engagement or anniversary. The hand painted personalization is adorable, and I can not wait to get a pair myself. 

    If you can’t make it into Disneyland, you may want to consider getting an item embroidered. There are embroidery locations inside both parks and at the Disneyland Hotel. If you are in Disneyland, you can head to the Mad Hatter Shop in Disneyland, both on Main Street and in Fantasyland. If you are over in California Adventure, you can get your items personalized at the Kingswell Shop or Seaside Souvenirs. If you are outside the park, you will need to head to the small world Gifts & Sundries in the Disneyland Hotel for your embroidery needs. Ears are not the only thing you can get embroidered, you can get a personalized sweater, or even a plush bath robe (sold at the shops inside the Disneyland Hotel and the Grand Californian Hotel).  Remember that items must be new, unworn, and have tags attached. Be sure to bring your receipt if you purchased your item at another store in the parks or from Downtown Disney. Items must have been purchased within the last 30 days. 

    Emeri, I hope this was helpful information. I am sending pixie dust vibes your way that you can get the design you have been hoping for! If you have any other questions or need help planning other aspects of your trip, please feel free to write back to me or my fellow panelist, and we would be happy to share our thoughts.

    Best of luck!
