It’s almost time for the yearly Spring time festivities at Epcot, with the 2014 International Flower and Garden Festival. The event is returning to the Walt Disney World Resort on March 5. Each year, new merchandise comes out in celebration of the festival, and our friend Steven Miller from Disney Parks gave everyone a sneak peak at some of the items!
I love some of the new garden items including a Minnie Mouse wind chime. How great would these look in your yard in the Spring?
They will also have a new 12-inch pre-dressed Duffy the Disney Bear that resembles a garden gnome. You’ll also be buzzing about the updated coffee mug that features a hidden bee image inside.
Topiaries also found their way onto new pins created especially for this year’s Festival. There is a limited release pin featuring Mickey Mouse that will be found in multiple locations through Epcot. There are also a series of limited-edition pins that include characters like Kermit the Frog or Mater and Lightning McQueen.
Finally, the Vinylmation team will introduce a new “revealed/concealed” mystery set with figures shaped like topiaries on March 28. Disney Design Group artist Caley Hicks designed the 3-inch figures. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice Mickey topiary is the revealed figure in the set, and it will be found on the top of each mystery box. The other four figures will be randomly packaged, so you won’t know which one you get.
Michele also contributes theme park news for Fox 35 Orlando 11pm news and on the radio on WDBO.
