Now you can design you very own   personalized ears (mouse ears, that is) at the &#8220;Create Your Own Ear Hat&#8221;  shop!  This new store, located between Design-A-Tee and The Art of  Disney, is a  Mouseketeer&#8217;s dream. The shop is one that could be easily  missed \u2014 I know I  almost did. I stumbled upon it when I was waiting in  Design-A-Tee. Once, my family discovered the shop, we were so excited!  Imagine \u2014 making the ears of our Disney dreams.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_2.jpg\" alt=\"sign\" width=\"267\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Now, in 4 easy steps, you can put together the mouse ears  you&#8217;ve  always wanted\u2026the ones that are as unique as you are! Here&#8217;s how it  works:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 1:<\/strong> <em>Select Your Hat Base<\/em>. This is the  part  that sits on your head. What color do you want? Blue? Pink? Gold?  Solid colored  or printed, quilted or with fur? There are shelves and  shelves to choose from. <em>Base  cost is $4.95 \u2013 $5.95.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_4.jpg\" alt=\"bases\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 2:<\/strong> <em>Select Your Ears.<\/em> This part is my   favorite! Again, the choices are amazing\u2026with glitter or without?  Polka dotted  or embossed? Traditional solid or with Mickey&#8217;s face? Pick  your ears and snap  them on. And yes, you can have two different ears  if you want! <em>Ear cost is $2.50 \u2013 $3.50 each.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_5.jpg\" alt=\"ears\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 3:<\/strong> <em>Select Your Patches.<\/em> Traditionally,  Mickey ears have a red circle with Mickey&#8217;s face in the  middle that is placed  on the front middle of the base. Now you can put  what you want where you  want\u2026and as many as you want! There is a table  with bins that hold a variety  of patches that you simply stick onto the  base, but having them sewn on is  recommended. Style choices range from  traditional to thematic, jewels to extra  bling. <em>Patch cost is $2.95 each.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>Step 4:<\/strong> <em>Embroider Your Ears.<\/em> Once you&#8217;ve  built  your dream ears, take them to the Cast Member and have them  embroidered! They  can also have those special patches sewn on as well.  No longer are ears  embroidered with the hand guide. &#8220;Create Your Own  Ear Hat&#8221; has a new Brother  embroidery machine. <em>Embroidery cost is  $3.00.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_6.jpg\" alt=\"embroidery\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Total cost? About $14.00 \u2014 the same you&#8217;d pay for traditional  preset ear hat styles.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_3.jpg\" alt=\"price\" width=\"400\" height=\"267\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Creating your own special ear hat is as simple as that and  takes  just minutes. The most difficult part will be making the selections! But   for you traditionalists out there, do not fret! You can still buy  traditional  black mouse ears as well as those other themed favorites  such as Minnie, pirates  and princesses, 1st ears, and wedding themes.<\/p>\n<p>Stop by and check it out. Just like getting themed T-shirts,  this  is a great way to bring your group together or the perfect way to show   your individuality!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.themouseforless.com\/tripplanning\/news\/ms\/2009\/images\/ears\/Ears_7.jpg\" alt=\"ears\" width=\"300\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<h4>Incoming search terms:<\/h4><ul><li>https:\/\/www themouseforless com\/blog_world\/create-your-own-ear-hats\/<\/li><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Jane Jones Since last year, The Chapeau&#8217;s &#8220;Build Your Own Ears Hat&#8221; boutique in the Magic Kingdom has offered creative shoppers the ability to create customized ear hats.
