It’s All About the Holiday Spirit

When you walk up to the entrance, you’ll be greeted by the shop’s red and green façade, draped with stylish garland and accented with colorful Christmas baubles and bright red bows.
Once inside, you’ll find yourself snuggly surrounded by Christmas wreaths, twinkling tinsel, and sparkling strings of lights. With green walls, red carpets, faux fireplaces (hung with stockings, of course), and rows upon rows of ornaments and other holiday merch, it almost feels like you’ve been transported directly to the North Pole. In fact, some have speculated that Days of Christmas might just be Santa’s workshop in disguise. (I’d believe it!)
Of course, we can’t forget the staff (or elves!) who help embody the Christmas spirit with their bright and cheerful demeanors. You can find them scattered throughout the store dressed in colorful red outfits, wishing everyone who passes by a “Merry Christmas!”
Merry Merchandise
The Days of Christmas Store contains multiple rooms filled to the brim with holly jolly winter décor. You’ll find everything you need here to celebrate the holidays!
Ornaments Galore
Without a doubt, the one thing that Days of Christmas is most famous for – and what every shopper can’t wait to get their hands on – are the ornaments.
Lining the walls of the shop are literally hundreds of different ornaments, all coming in various shapes and sizes and featuring a wide variety of Disney characters. You can start an annual tradition with a classic Disney 2022 ornament, pick up a Pinocchio snow globe ornament, or grab a Mickey Mouse photo ornament. There are even sketchbook ornaments depicting scenes from every Disney movie imaginable, including Frozen, Moana, Winnie the Pooh, Aladdin, Toy Story, and more recent blockbusters as well.
Some of the most popular ornaments in the shop, however, happen to be those shaped in the image of Disney’s ever-famous mouse ears. Consisting of the iconic three circles that have come to symbolize Disney, these ornaments are available in a variety of colors and sizes.
There are large glass mouse ears, small plastic ones, sparkling ears covered in glitter, and mouse ears that are imprinted with Disney symbols such as Cinderella’s Castle, the rose from Beauty and the Beast, or the lamp from Aladdin. There are even ornaments that depict other characters wearing the famous mouse ears. For example, there are several different renditions of a snowman head with the mouse ears on top! If there’s one thing Days of Christmas specializes in, it’s mouse ear ornaments! (Something we here at MouseEars TV think is pretty awesome! *wink*)
While traditional Disney ornaments often take center stage, Days of Christmas also caters in surprises. For my fellow Star Wars fans, several ornaments depict the most Force-sensitive characters like Luke Skywalker and Baby Yoda from The Mandalorian. (Grogu who?) And for those of us who are also entrenched in the Marvel Universe, there’s Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet and adorable Groot from Guardian of the Galaxies, all wrapped up in Christmas lights. (Aww!)
No matter your favorite movie or favorite character (Pascal for the win!), you’re sure to find a variety of ornaments that will make the perfect addition to your Christmas tree.
Custom Personalization
If you’d like to take it a step further and customize your ornaments, you can even opt to have them personalized with a name, date, or design of your choice! Simply select your ornaments and head on over to the customer service counter. They’ll give you a sheet of available designs, and you can pick and choose which ones you like.
You can either wait and watch as the ornaments are personalized in front of you or, if there happens to be a long line (which tends to be the case around the holidays), you can choose to come back and pick them up the next day. If you don’t have time or will be leaving the Disney area soon, they can also ship your ornaments to your home or resort hotel (for a fee).
And if you’re really short on time and don’t want to wait in line to place your order, you can hunt through a selection of pre-personalized ornaments that feature common names and popular designs.
Holiday Decor
Of course, the Days of Christmas Store doesn’t just sell ornaments – there’s also a wide variety of other holiday and winter décor that you can find here!
This includes everything from stockings to plush toys, Disney figurines, tree skirts, Mickey Mouse nutcrackers, and Santa hats that feature both Mickey Mouse ears and Goofy ears. There’s even a section specifically dedicated to kitchen items, including aprons, towels, table runners, pot holders, tea sets, salt and pepper shakers, and even dishes and silverware sets. Days of Christmas has everything you need to completely renovate your dining room into a Disney holiday extravaganza!
Additionally, there’s even an entire section of the store dedicated to the Nightmare Before Christmas. Of course, there are several ornaments depicting scenes from the movie, but there’s also a variety of home décor and apparel items, too! You can find everything from picture frames to coffee mugs, throw blankets, pillows, and even wreaths to hang on your front door.
For the ultimate Nightmare Before Christmas outfit, you can pick up some gloves, a hat, leggings or sweatpants, a t-shirt (or two!), a hoodie, and, to top it all off, a jean jacket. All of these items depict various characters from the movie, but the one person who is most frequently featured is the Pumpkin King himself, Jack Skellington!
No matter what time of the year you visit Days of Christmas, you’re sure to have a fun and memorable experience, and the best part is you can take a piece of that experience home with you! After all, who doesn’t want to Disney-fy their house?!
As for me, I can’t wait to get over there and grab my next ornament – I’ve got my eyes on a glittery, red Minnie Mouse ornament that’s sure to look great on my Christmas tree this year!
