Happy World Princess Week!

In case you missed it, Disney is celebrating princesses from August 21st to the 27th with all kinds of special treats, entertainment, merchandise, and more in Disney Parks, and there’s also an official theme song!
Disney just released new online merchandise, and we can’t wait to get a whiff!
Honey is the sweetest scent!
For years, we have waited for Disney to release their own line of scented candles. And while they haven’t released their own Flight of Passage candle yet, they have officially started rolling out their own line of Disney-themed candles. These landed in the parks and online a while ago. And now, a few more candle options have been added!
A good Disney accessory can help you look cute AND store your things while you walk around Disney World.
Loungefly Disney Bags
Loungefly is an accessories brand that’s usually behind all the cute and colorful mini backpacks you find around Disney World. Recently, they’ve been releasing a lot of new stuff, like a Loki collection, an Encanto mini backpack, and more. Today they added even more bags online. But, be warned, reading this post might just cause you to add more of the bags to your collection!
Disney World has been preparing for the 50th Anniversary for quite some time now.
New popcorn box
We’ve already spotted lots of 50th Anniversary character statues, decorations at the front of Magic Kingdom, topiaries, and more. Cinderella Castle is also decked out in all kinds of decor to celebrate the big occasion. Now, Disney has added ANOTHER 50th Anniversary decoration near Cinderella Castle, but have they just gone too far this time?
If you’re like us, you’ve always dreamed of living in your own castle — we’ll have to blame Disney for our super-high standards.
We’d live here if we could!
Unfortunately Cinderella Castle is not for sale (insert sad sigh here), but there’s now a chance to channel your inner Disney princess by owning a castle nearby!
You may not be able to live in Cinderella Castle (or any other Disney princess castles for that matter), but there’s still a way to bring the castles into your home!
Sadly, Disney won’t let us live here 🙁
This year, Disney has been releasing figurines, puzzles, pins, and more featuring castles from some of your favorite Disney movies. All part of the Castle Collection, each series highlights a different princess castle so you can bring their palaces home with you! From Cinderella to Rapunzel, many Disney Princesses have already made their Castle Collection debut. And, now it’s time for Jasmine’s Castle!
Something Disney really loves is releasing lengthy collections of things: they’ve got keys, pins, plush, you name it. One of their ongoing collections has definitely taken some patience, however, as it started over a year ago!

If you’re invested in the Disney Castle Collection, the next release is just around the corner!

It was a rocky year for Hong Kong Disneyland. The park closed in January 2020, reopened in June, closed again in July, reopened in September, and then closed again in December. It reopened once more in February 2021.

During that time, though, something extraordinary was going on behind the scenes — Disney Imagineers were building a NEW castle for the park! That castle, now known as the Castle of Magical Dreams, opened to guests in November 2020.
It may only be March, but the 50th anniversary of Disney World is closer than we think!
