It Came from Disney!

About the Column

If Disney piled all its themed merchandise in one place, it would likely reach to infinity - and beyond. You see it everywhere: at the parks, online, in your neighbor's house. And you're tempted, sorely tempted, to make it yours: not always because you need it but because it came from Disney. For many people, that means irresistible. But fight the urge, just for a moment, until you've read what Jessica Clawson thinks about that irresistible piece of Disneyana. Chances are, she has already succumbed to the urge - and now, temporarily recovered, wants to tell you whether it was worth it.

Mickey Mouse Cherry Wood Photo Frame

Want to see my Disney pictures? Good luck! The early ones are in shoe boxes; the newer ones are on external hard drives. Few are framed. That might change now that Jessica Clawson has found a very cool frame to hold not one but three Disney photos.

When you are in Walt Disney World, or any theme park really, you take photos to keep as memories of your vacation.

Jessica's Disney Pictures, Framed in Cherry Wood

Each Frame is Attached with Mickey Head Bolts

A Sturdy Chain Ensures This Frame Won't Fall

Sometimes, those pictures gather virtual dust on your camera or computer for the next 5 years (I am guilty of this, for sure), but other times, you may want to print your photos, put them in frames, and show them off to family and friends.

Disney sells many different frames to hold your Disney pictures, but one that I particularly like (and use!) is the Three-Link Cherry Wood Mickey Mouse Photo Frame.

As its name suggests, the frame 'set' holds three 4x6 pictures in three separate frames held together with metal Mickey heads.

The frames hang from a bolted chain on the top. The chain is very sturdy, easily holds the frames, and stands little chance of breaking.

You secure each of your three pictures in their respective frames with a metal piece that slides into a groove. The corners of each frame sport Mickey Mouse heads carved into the cherry wood.

We bought this frame at Disney World, but it's also available on-line at DisneyStore.com for $27.95. The reviews are uniformly positive, and the lowest customer rating is a 4 out of 5.

About the only negative comment - and it's not really negative - is from reviewer 'KingKong', who wished the color had been a "lot lighter" but still thought the frame was "really cute".

There are other frames in Disney's Mickey Mouse Cherry Wood collection, including a beveled frame that holds a single 5x7 photo.

The Three-Link Cherry Wood Mickey Mouse Photo Frame is stylish, well-made, and adds a classy Disney accent to any home.

Wouldn't it be cute if it came with a Mickey hand hanger to hold the chain at the top!

That is a very understated frame. Wish it came in black! Though I do love the little Mickey heads. Disney's attention to detail is so awesome!

I have this frame and I love it! The craftsmanship is beautiful! I too and guilty of letting my pics back-up on my camera (and I have thousands of them). BUT I finally bought this frame after having my eye on it for quite some time...and it is home to two character photos of my daughters with Pluto, another with Chip & Dale and a family photo taken one morning on the monorail going to the MK. It was THE perfect find!

Update: I just came back from WDW and saw that these frames, along with the others in the cherry wood series, are still sold at resort stores and in several of the main stores throughout property!
