Disney Secret Santa Swap


So today I'm carrying on from my own Blogger Swap to a Secret Santa swap, which was set up by my amazing instagram friends @katedoesdisney, @disneyinparticular and @alexburgers
My gifts came from @taylorburgess13 and I love them so much that I had to share them with you! Now if you already followed me on instagram you will have probably seen the gifts but if not you in for a great treat :)


Firstly I will share the stunning card she sent me with a beautiful picture of the Disneyland Paris castle at Christmas taken by the amazing Laura Knighton. Laura is also known as @thatdisneylover on instagram, twitter. She also has a Youtube channel, which is awesome! Anyway, the picture is stunning. 


Next is an adorable postcard of my favourite place in the Disney universe, Neverland! This postcard is made by the wonderful Lizi, known on instagram as @disneyisalwaysagoodidea. Lizi makes postcards for all different Disney locations printed on a logo just like a tube station. I love this so much and hope to get more in the future so I can put some of my favourite locations up in my room!


This piece of art is also made by Lizi from @disneyisalwaysagoodidea and I LOVE IT! Rapunzel is my favourite princess and this is just stunning. Lizi takes pictures from Disney books & art and make little decorations. You can't see on the picture very well but it's covered in glitter too! You can buy these from here Etsy shop here! She is currently closed for Christmas but will be back up & running soon :)


Lastly are the most beautiful pair of ears I've ever seen. These are no ordinary ears though as they are handmade by Lola Hancock on instagram, known as @lubyandlola. I've been wanting a pair of Luby&Lola ears since I first followed them but never got the chance but here I am with my first pair! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! As you can see they are Belle inspired with gold glitter & yellow bow with small rose detail. I can't wait to wear them to Disneyland Paris next year when I go for my 18th! I'm also sure I'll be buying more especially Tinkerbell, Rapunzel & Marie pairs, I feel a collection coming on...! You can buy Lola's ears on Etsy here! She is currently closed for Christmas but will be back up & running soon :)


I love my gifts so much and once again can't believe how nice & amazing people I only know online can be! Thankyou so much Taylor if you reading this :)

Disney Blogger/YouTube Christmas Gift Swap


This year I was asked by my friend Dan to help organise a blogger/youtube christmas gift swap! I jumped at the opportunity as I love gift swaps and christmas! Today is reveal day and everyone who particpated will be posting on youtube, instagram or on their blog in the next few days heading up to Christmas. 

I was super lucky and my presents were from my good friend Tracie, also known as @trixiebell_85 on instagram. You should totally check out her instagram as it's full of Disney magic! 

Now onto the presents! They came wrapped in amazing Frozen paper and I couldn't wait to see what was inside...


I'll start with the non-disney thing first, which I thought was super sweet as I didn't expect anything MLP but I LOVE it! It such a cute calendar and I can't wait to display it in my room. I love all the little pictures and it includes all the mane 6, which is so rare!


 Next up is this super cute princess keyring with Cinderella, Belle & my personal favourite Rapunzel! I can't wait to put this with my other disney keyrings in my room and display it with all my princess things. I also love the backing card with all the little princess scenes :)


 I love this awesome figural pen from The Disney Store. It's part of the new range called 'MXYZ', they do all different random stationary bits and I love this pen! I'm going to put it on my desk as she is such a cute figure anyway. I love the pink aswell, as pink is one of my favourite colours. 
A useful item with a touch of disney :)

 Last up are my favourite things, which are the Moana Tsum Tsums! I missed these on release day and was really sad but I'm so happy now as I have Moana & Pua!! Pua is the cutest thing and he was the one I wanted most so I'm so happy to have him in my collection. I also collect princess tsum tsums so Moana was needed and she is so detailed.


I LOVE MY PRESENTS! I was so taken back & overwhelmed when I open them as I couldn't believe a person that I don't actually know other than online, could be so friendly & generous. 
Thankyou so much Tracie if your reading this!! 

Can't wait to do this all again next Christmas!

November Favourites


Can you even believe it's December already, it's crazy! But since it's December that means it's time for my November Favourites, which are of course all Disney themed. I have quite a few this month so let's get started..


First up is the Moana Classic Doll from The Disney Store. Moana came out last Friday here in the UK, but I haven't seen it yet so that's a must watch! I did buy the classic doll though in the black Friday sale as I knew I wanted her for my collection and didn't want her to sell out like Elsa & Anna did back when Frozen came out. She is so chunky and beautiful, I love her so much as she is so different to the general princesses. 


I've recently decided to start collecting the Disney Shoe Ornaments and knew I needed Rapunzel. I got Tinkerbell last year, Minnie when I went to Disneyland Paris earlier this year and I've ordered quiet a few for Christmas! Rapunzel was going to be harder though as they didn't sell it in Disneyland Paris or online at the Disney Store and the only place to find it was ebay for crazy prices!! Luckily I found the shoe on facebook on a Disney selling page for a great price and had to get it. The shoe is stunning with pink & purple glitter and her hair braided up the heel with flowers. 





Over the past month I've been doing alot of trading and managed to acquire one of my grails along the way, I'm talking about this amazing Frozen Jumbo! It's actually massive and I love the stain glass detail in the background. It also has all the main characters on it, which is hard to find as Hans is often excluded from merchandise. Elsa and Anna also have a pin-on-pin 3D effect, which is super cool! I still can't believe I now own this pin!!


I actually got this Belle in a raffle and I love her so much! I have been wanting her for ages especially with the amazing detail on her dress of her castle. I always love Jim Shore's take on the Disney characters with his patterns and I think Belle looks stunning.



I've been collecting the Disney Christmas decorations this year and this has to be one of my favourites. Peter Pan is my favourite Disney movie (if you don't know already!) so this was a must have for me. I love the Big Ben scene in the movie and kind of wished this ornament showed the same time as the movie but you can't have everything perfect! It includes Peter Pan & all three children (Michael is on the back) and it covered in gold glitter.


And of course I couldn't do my November Favourites without including this amazing Princess figure set from The Disney Store. I did a full review on this set last week, which you can find here. I love this set so much as it includes so many princesses and sidekicks that are often forgotten. The are covered in pretty glitter and look great in or out of the box! 


That's all my favourites for November! 
What's your favourite?

Disney Christmas Gift Guide


So it's that time of the year again, can you believe it?! I've put together some of my favourite Disney bits to share with you this festive season. From dolls to decorations, I've got something for everyone this Christmas!


Christmas is a time for getting cosy and warm in your PJs so why not buy someone a super cool pair of Disney ones! There are so many on the market right from Matalan, ASDA, Topshop, Asos, Primark..the list goes on. They be a really cool inexpensive gift that sometime can use for ages. 


The Disney Store has a great range of dolls and soft toys for all ages. If you fancy something small, try a smaller plush or doll, if your looking for something abit bigger maybe the Animator Collection is more you. Disney's soft toy collection ranges in all different characters from princesses to some of your favourite animals to classic characters. If you love the look of the Animator Dolls but they are just abit too big, try the Mini Animator Doll Collection instead! 



Now Figurines are some of my favourites things to collect from the stunning Jim Shore Traditions to the Disney Store's figurine sets. This Christmas Disney have introduced the 'Mega Figurine Sets', which include all your favourite for a good price. Disney are generally having sales or offers all the time leading up to Christmas so I bet you can get these Mega sets for even less! For the more adult fan maybe a Jim Shore Disney Tradition is the way to go. There are endless characters, movies and scenes in stunning carved art. 


Everyone needs a Disney Christmas Decoration whether it's on their tree or just as an ornament. Each year The Disney Store brings out new Disney Decorations ranging from Robin Hood to Peter Pan. They even have singing decorations, which are my favourite! Bring the magic of Disney home with classic scenes like the Up house or Ariel on her rock. There are also a range of Disney Shoe Ornaments, which are inspired by different characters and movies.

 Jack Skellington LE Pin | Animator Collection LE Pin Set | Moana LE Pin Set

 A slightly different gift idea next, Disney Pins. I'm a Disney Pin Addict as I love them so much so I just couldn't miss them from my list! Whether you like girly princess pins, dark edgy pins or just general classic pins..I'm sure there is one for you. From Jack Skellington to the newest Disney movie 'Moana' there are tons of pins to choose from.


Pinocchio Snowglobe | Aurora Snowglobe | Beauty and the Beast Snowglobe

If your looking for the perfect gift for an adult Disney fan then look no further than a Disney Snowglobe. The Disney Store have sold some beautiful snowglobes over the years, which if your lucky you could probably find on Ebay, but the website offers some lovely ones too. Some are even musical and light up, how cool is that!?

That's my Disney Christmas Gift Guide for 2016, hope it helps!!
