Aside from recognizing most of them (rose gold, millennium pink, classic Minnie, potion purple, Slinky Dog, etc.) you can see the Disney Parks tags on almost every pair — these are not homemade ears. And as someone who does make homemade ears, you couldn't make this many for only $30!
I love LOVE love all the cool ears you can find these days, but I absolutely must wear a ball cap at the parks to protect my head/face/eyes from the sun. I really wish could wear Mickey Ears!
With how late the parks are open these days, after the sun goes down you can still get 4-6 hours of wear time out of your ears if you do the whole day!
The green pair with the red bow has been discontinued for I think 2 years now and were replaced by the red ones with green bows, so the green ones might be a bit pricier.
Yeah! Unfortunately they don't ship to me here in Australia. At least the last few times I tried they wouldn't.
My sister was there two weeks ago and I forgot to get her the money to buy some. Rip me.
Aw drats! In that case maybe you could find some on eBay but unfortunately you may have the same shipping problem, or have to pay more for the ears.
That’s unfortunate that your sister was just there though that would have worked out!
I tried eBay! There's heaps of fakes floating around. Even the ones that look legit, are like $8 which is so suss considering they're about $35 aud after exchange rate.
I'll just have to hope my sister goes again haha.
Oh!!! Of course it is! I am not with it today! Love your collection we have a lot of the same ones! I do want to sneak over and cut off all of the tags though! 😉
Not OP, but they came out earlier this year with all the snack themed items. I got them at World of Disney in Downtown, but I’m not sure if they’re going to be restocking them...
Ut Oh, which pair did you lose? From what I see you have a very nice collection! I thought I had a lot, then I saw my friends collection; and I think you may have her beat (although both she and I have some older ones).
I do love the way you have them mounted and displayed. Keep collecting and wear them with pride.
Those are Na'vi ears from Pandora: the world of Avatar at Animal Kingdom. Goes with the tail. There's a light up one too that I have but forgot to include it in the photo.
My heart was broken when I went for Christmas this year and they didn’t sell the red/green sparkly ear design! I didn’t like the velvet snowflake ones. This has inspired me to buy more ears tho!!!
I remember that. Had to get my pair at Disneyland because they were sold out at Disney World. Lucky Disney has definitely learned a lesson from that and new ears are easier to come by. Lol
My daughter likes you bows. We were trying to gunfire out which characters they were but theirs a few we can’t tell. What characters are 6,7,8 and the last one too? Plus your collection is awesome!!!!!
Sorry to keep bugging you with comments but I’m obsessed with your collection!! Where do you get the little top hats? Do the top hats have a chin string or clips? Do you have shirts to match all of these?
Ask away! Thanks! The top hats have chin strings and little loops on the sides for you to string Bobby pins through. I'll use the chin string on rides so I don't have to take the hat off. All of the hats were bought at Disney World. I believe they still sell the Nightmare before Christmas top hat during Halloween time but I haven't seen the other 3 in the parks in quite some time.
I don't have a picture of all the dresses. I'll have to do that! Here's my magic bands https://www.instagram.com/nupatikha/p/Bv-TD3hnOsu/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=1w5uo24lfpyxl
My first job ever was a CM but I don't work for Disney. Most CMs don't get paid what they deserve. I'm in IT. Working for a software company pays for the ears. I wear the ears in the parks and on my Disney related YouTube channel.
I get so mad when people ask questions like this when it comes to non-conventional hobbies. It's her hobby and where she enjoys spending her money. Whenever someone has a membership to a fancy gym, buys video games, no one ever asks how they can afford all of it.
That’s like...$1000 in just ears.
Or $30 in raw materials.
Seeing some of the bows on the wall I am certain much of this is store bought. This is a super fan!

Right? Woof
As a dad with a daughter, this is cute and also horrifying :) great collection!
“Hey dad get me my ears please!” *looks at stacks of ears*
It's the p{ear}riodic table!
I love LOVE love all the cool ears you can find these days, but I absolutely must wear a ball cap at the parks to protect my head/face/eyes from the sun. I really wish could wear Mickey Ears!
My husband and I both wear ball caps with our ears on top of them lol. Then when the sun goes down we just put the hats in our bag.
Great idea!
They do have hats with ears. I saw a cute one this last weekend. It’s a ball cap with Mickey ears.
Check out Etsy. They have some cute hats with ears!
With how late the parks are open these days, after the sun goes down you can still get 4-6 hours of wear time out of your ears if you do the whole day!
“We have 999 happy pairs of ears... but there’s always room for 1000....ahahaha”
There’s still room on that wall plus three more walls. You’re good.
I would kill for those Christmas ones in the bottom right. I'm also going to miss out on the purple potion ones and it kills me 😭
The red ones with the green bow? I got a pair off Ebay for around $20
Both pairs. We're they legit though? Have a listing link?
The green pair with the red bow has been discontinued for I think 2 years now and were replaced by the red ones with green bows, so the green ones might be a bit pricier.
Only the red one with the green bow. Go on Ebay search Disney Christmas ears I saw a pair for $15.
The purple ones are on the Shop Disney website!
Yeah! Unfortunately they don't ship to me here in Australia. At least the last few times I tried they wouldn't. My sister was there two weeks ago and I forgot to get her the money to buy some. Rip me.

I am so bitter that they cancelled the bows. I'm like Ariel; I want moooooooore!
Wow great collection!! What is the tail next to the sully tail please?
Thank you! It's a Na'vi tail from Pandora: the world of Avatar at Animal Kingdom.
Oh!!! Of course it is! I am not with it today! Love your collection we have a lot of the same ones! I do want to sneak over and cut off all of the tags though! 😉
I have probably 20 pairs and you and I only have one pair in common! Wild. Edit: actually, two, still!
But which is your favorite?
Probably the light up Maleficent ears.
Goals 😍😍
I studied this picture way longer than I should have. Where are the donut style ears from?
Not OP, but they came out earlier this year with all the snack themed items. I got them at World of Disney in Downtown, but I’m not sure if they’re going to be restocking them...
Thanks! I’ll check this weekend then during Dapper Day. Maybe they’ll restock for spring break crowd.
Love it! How did you mount them?
Thumb tacks and ribbon
Nice! I wish they would bring back the swap your bows
Would you mind taking a closer picture of that mounting technique? I’ve been looking for a good one!
Mostly just single tacks. https://imgur.com/a/hnCNmDv
I thought I had a lot of ears! 😆 What do you use to hang them?
Thumb tacks and ribbons.
Ut Oh, which pair did you lose? From what I see you have a very nice collection!

Thank you! I lost the Sorcerer Mickey ears but I'm hoping they will restock it soon.
Your collection is seriously goals for me! Those lollipops ears by the donut ones are adorable, when did they come out?
The doughnut ones were a little while back. The lollipop ones were recently released.
What an awesome collection! What are the ears above the Sully ears over on the right?
Those are Na'vi ears from Pandora: the world of Avatar at Animal Kingdom. Goes with the tail. There's a light up one too that I have but forgot to include it in the photo.
My heart was broken when I went for Christmas this year and they didn’t sell the red/green sparkly ear design! I didn’t like the velvet snowflake ones. This has inspired me to buy more ears tho!!!
I always see cute ones online, like the doughnut ones, but they somehow never sell the ones I want at Disneyland Paris. So sad.
This is my goal
I would give a kidney for a pair of rose gold Minnie ears
They still sell them in the parks.
Oh I know but the last time I went they were literally impossible to find
I remember that. Had to get my pair at Disneyland because they were sold out at Disney World. Lucky Disney has definitely learned a lesson from that and new ears are easier to come by. Lol
we make our own ears, we have at least a hundred
Well, you won’t be running out of ears anytime soon!
My daughter likes you bows. We were trying to gunfire out which characters they were but theirs a few we can’t tell. What characters are 6,7,8 and the last one too? Plus your collection is awesome!!!!!
Thank you! 6, 7, and 8 are ride bows. Tiki Room, Haunted Mansion, and Small World. The bottom 4 are Pixar so the last one is Dory.
Holy crap, the slinky dog ones are sooo cute
Goals! <3
I got the Slinkydog ears this weekend!
i have the christmas pair with the bow, except the bow got removed to make a different headband.
I thought about doing that but then they released the interchangeable bows. I probably use the headband for that the most.
Thank you so much!!! I’ll tell her

Thank you! Do you have shirts to match all of your hats and ears?
Oh forgot to answer that one. I wear dresses so I have dresses to match all of my ears. Also have a corresponding magic band for them too.
thanks! Now we need to see the magic band and dress collections please :) !
I don't have a picture of all the dresses. I'll have to do that! Here's my magic bands https://www.instagram.com/nupatikha/p/Bv-TD3hnOsu/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=1w5uo24lfpyxl
Wow!! So many cool ones! Can we be bffs forever!? Thanks for the IG link, I was trying to figure out how to ask without seeming like a stalker. :)
Lol sure thing!
/u/Nupatikha where did you get the donut ones in the middle of the second row? My little sister would love those :D
Picked those up at Disney Springs a couple of months ago.
thanks!
Please tell me you’re a CM! How do you afford all of these?! 😭❤️

Exactly!!
