Create Your Own Mickey Mouse Ear Hat at Downtown Disney

Create Your Own Ear hat DisneyAt the Downtown Disney Marketplace, nestled right between The Art of Disney and Disney’s Design-a-Tee Shop you will find a small area dedicated solely to the iconic Mickey Ear Hat.  You can purchase a variety of pre-designed Mouse Ears here, but I was captivated by the “Create Your Own” Ear Hat station.  Sure…personalization is “HOT” right now but if you are looking for a souvenir to take home to that special someone who is hard to buy for, this may just be the shopping destination for you.

The concept is pretty simple really…

Step 1: Select Your Hat Base

    I wish I could do this now online! Awesome! I used to have to order ears from Disneyland when my first Granddaughter was born. I can't wait for a trip to Disney as I'm expecting Princess #6 in Nov. That will make six grandgirls for me!
  • I would love to see infant Mickey Ears! Congrats to you!!!
  • Kimma
    I love the new hats, i am totally an ear girl! i have the golden ears,pink minnie ones from when i went to disney the very frist time,and graduation ears. I also love being DIFFERNT so customizing would be my DREAM! i'll just have to make my friend like time me so i dont spend all day deciding...or have him make me look...decide while going through the park and come back lol
  • I wish my head was smaller so I could wear em....

    How did I miss this last Year!
  • Donald has always been my fav, but I didn't see anything Donald listed above. I see several Minnie combinations that would be cute.
  • There's a donald duck patch in the 16th picture down. Might look cool on the black base with the multi colored fireworks ears since he's such a saucy character

    Wow! Last year I saw this starting up and was intrigued by it (too much for little kids starting out). I do not recall so many cool options. As a huge fan of Miss Piggy that is calling my name for next trip to Disney World.
  • I have a very old Epcot Center patch. I wonder if I made myself a hat if they would sew it on for me. Hmmm....
  • Kimma
    wouldnt hurt to ask!
  • Fun!! I can't wait to see what they have for Halloween!
  • I must confess that I'm more of an ear fan! I had some gorgeous Minnie Ears from Disneyland Paris a few years back, they were big, solid plastic ears on an Alice band - I miss the way they used to make 'em. The small furry ears are too small...
  • They came out with some killer Haunted Mansion Ears this year. Pin striped teal with teal ears that were imprinted with bats. There was a metal bat stanchion on the front with metal chains that came from the bats ears and pierced the ears and hung like the queue line there. The hitchhiking ghosts were on the back.
  • I still prefer the good old fashioned Mickey ears. It's fun to make your own style but I couldn't see myself strolling down main street usa in anything else.
  • Is that your hat of choice while in the Magic Kingdom?
  • Jo
    I would make ones that looked like my Vinylmations and one that had ears like the Test Track signs...
  • Test track ears would be cool. Yellow with the target for ears =) I likey!
