March has been a good month! of course I'm going to start with the most exciting news! I'M GOING TO DISNEYLAND PARIS! after years of waiting I've now only got to wait till December to go back to the mothership! We are going December 31st to January 3rd which means we will be there for New Years Eve! ♥ this trip is so special to me and I've been having so much fun so far researching and planning!
I got a cute little folder which I decorated - because it 'aint planning if it isn't cute!
March quickly became known as The Beauty and the Beast Month! and I went a bit ham on the influx of merchandise which seems to be everywhere at the moment. I saw the live action twice this month, the first in IMAX on opening day and then with my mama and I'm in love with it! It totally exceeded my expectations!
Of course the Beauty and the Beast madness started with the first Tsum Tsum Tuesday of the month, you can see my post about TTT here. The Beauty and the Beast Tsum Tsums didn't end there though! they rereleased the original set later in the month but this time taking about crazy old Maurice and adding Lafou! earlier in the month I did the Tsum Tsum tag on here and...
here he is! ♥ just proving Disney is made for dreams! - Can we just take a moment though to talk about the new packaging design they seem to be rolling out on all the new products? it may be just be being irrational as inbox/tagged toy collector but I hate now that things aren't going to match! I already have things on my toy shelfs that aren't matching that were brought within a week of each other!madness!
I popped into my local clintons to look at the Beauty and the Beast collection but nothing really caught my eye but I did come out with Easter Minnie and these adorable notecards! you get two of each design so one set have gone up on my wall and I'm keeping hold of other sets for penpals and some other plans :)
One set has Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.
& the other has Lady and the Tramp, The Aristocats, Bambi and a 101 Dalmatians.
Continuing the Beauty and the Beast madness I ordered this book which is absolutely beautiful! its from the Illustrators MinaLima who did all the Harry Potter artwork in the films! they also have a Peter Pan and Jungle Book one I've got my eye on!
After seeing Sarah Louise Porter's DIY enchanted rose video I knew I had to make one! I'd been planning on making one for a while after I saw the glass domes online at IKEA but how good hers turned out really pushed me over! I was lucky enough to nab the last one of the domes in the Wednesbury IKEA thanks to my eagle eyed Mom and Brother!
I think it turned out perfectly! and I'm so in love with it ♥ While in IKEA I came across a smaller dome too and decided to get one of those just incase for other projects etc. I am so glad I did because a couple of weeks later I saw a Lego rose on someones account and they were doing pick ups from Legoland Windsor! naturally I jumped at the chance! and she was lovely enough to pick one up for me!
My two Enchanted roses!
Having asked the lovely lady to pick the rose up for me I knew I had to have the Lego Brickheadz! they are so perfect and really great mini builds! and my Lego scene is now complete ♥
My Beauty and the Beast collection is getting a little bit cramped now so I've got a plan to relocate it especially with the addition of those hanging decorations I've been after for months! I nearly caved and brought them for twice the price on eBay but thankfully Birmingham had them in stock!!
And finally to round off the Beauty and the Beast section of March I brought my very own Beast ♥ I loved the Beast in the new film even more than I love him in the original animation mostly because the song Evermore! I cried both times in the cinema! and I've been listening to it on repeat the entire month! 
I practically squealed in the Birmingham Disney Store when I saw this on the shelf! its so cute I love these Mirco Playlets they have been bringing out for the Animators Collection! (I got the Belle set last month!) But this a prime example of the packaging changing! and it looks slightly odd next to the Belle set so I've been actually considering unboxing these! (shock horror I know!)
I may have also squealed when I saw two Animators sets too - I have problems okay? I couldn't leave without buying either! fun fact: Monsters Inc. is my Mom's favourite Disney/Pixar film (she's much more a Pixar fan I've realised than a Disney - I think its all the singing in Disney films!)
Baby Moana ♥
I got a few non Disney items this month! first off is the 'Vintage' Barbie, my Nan brought me this doll when I was little and sadly it either got wrecked over the years/lost/thrown out so when I was one come up on eBay I kew I had to have it!
Then its another recent obsession- Twozies! they are so cute and I love how they stack to make a display! I also picked up my first Care Bear blind bag! these are so cute and now I need the whole set!
Some other fun things that happened this month...
I saw Olly Murs in concert! - okay so I'm not the biggest fan of Olly Murs but I'm not going to say no to a free concert ticket! and I actually really enjoyed it! and I found out that I actually do quite like some of his songs.
I did a post on my Toy Collection/Room tour and even did a video to go along side it! I would love to be confident enough to start a full on toy channel/disney channel but it may come in time!
1. DISNEY ON ICE! I'm going to Disney on Ice with my Sister and my little niece so that should be so much fun! I went years ago and loved it so I'm really looking forward to it!
2. Easter!
3. Tsum Tsum Tuesdays! I hear rumours about ice cream Tsum's been released? sound adorable!
