Disney Style at Home: A Mini Tour of Our Magical Disney Decor!

May 13, 2019
Disney Friends Blog Hop

It is time for another Disney Friends Blog Hop! The theme for this month is “Disney at Home”. We wanted to share with you some of our Disney Decor at home. We strive to strike a balance of sprinkling in some magic without being too crazy. So come along on our tour and get a peek into our home with some Disney touches. And once you read our article you can continue on to check out more blogs with some other great Disney home themed articles this month. (See bottom of article for more details.)

Living Areas

In our living room areas we have a few pictures, collectibles, and home decor items such as:

  • Black and White Disney print frame collage

  • Happily Ever After Pillows

  • Special Collectibles such as a castle, wedding cake topper, and a Disney vase

  • We also sprinkled in some Disney hard cover books into our fireplace display

Another great thing to note is in our hallway we came up with a very cheap Disney art option. At the parks you can pick up packs of attraction posters. During the end of the year they also sell large calendars with an attraction poster for each month. We grabbed some cheap frames from Michaels and hung a set of 4 in the hall. They are easy to pop in and out so we mix them up throughout the year. It’s a fun vintage vibe for super cheap!

Kitchen

In our dining room we have an awesome wine rack cabinet. Above that we have a nod to Pirates of the Caribbean. A Caribbean map from our honeymoon hangs above with some of Andrew’s pirate inspired rum bottles.

In our kitchen we have sprinkled in lots of Disney items that look more classy than cheesy such as towels, serving utensils, and bowls. We also have a Disney coffee mug collection including a Starbucks mug from each park we have been to!

This is our dining room with a red wall.

Bedroom Areas

We like our bedroom area to feel like a little getaway and have aimed to have a beachy feel. We have a few pieces of art to include a painting of the Wedding Pavilion, some wedding pics, and a happily ever after sign above the door.

In the bathroom we found some David Doss artwork that is beachy and Disney with two small prints above the tub and a larger Disney cruise line print as well.

Office Areas

Our his and hers office spaces are the perfect reflection of Disney personalities. Julie’s is Cinderella themed with soft blue walls, Cinderella artwork & collectibles and touches of gold and white.

Andrew’s office is retro Disney with a black, white and grey theme, Ethan Allen Mickey bedding and a great Walt Print above the bed.

Welcome to our office area!

Moving Near the Mouse: Moving to Orlando to be a Disney Local
Life, Home

Everyone dreams about moving to their happy place whether it be the country, the mountains, or, in our case, near the house of the mouse. Last year we were able to make our dreams a reality and left Maryland to start a new chapter in Orlando. It’s hard to believe it, but we have now been Floridians for one year! We wanted to take a look back at this last year and chat about:

  • How we pulled off a big cross country move last year

  • What we are loving and missing now being in FL

  • A peek into our home (with several before and after projects!)

  • and finally, how our Disney habits have changed now being locals

Following Our Dreams: Moving to Orlando & Our New Castle Near Disney!
Life, Home

Hi friends! Sorry we have been a bit M.I.A., the last several weeks have certainly been a whirlwind. It has been quite the adventure to sell a house in one state, find a new home in another, then pack up everything (including three cats!) to travel almost 1,000 miles. But even with the craziness we have been super excited to move to our new “castle” so close to the Mouse. It has always been a dream to “one day” leave the area and try somewhere new. When the opportunity came to head to Orlando we thought that sounded pretty perfect for us. So while change can be scary and stressful we know this new adventure will strenghten us and bring up all sorts of new opportunities in the future…

So you have probably been wondering why we have been M.I.A. the last couple weeks. Well you know how life likes to throw you fun little challenges from time to time? I guess we were due. Our washing machine decided to completely malfunction and start leaking water all over the laundry room floor. And then under the floor. And then continue into the next room. When we stepped on the floor planks and saw water bubbling up between all we could think was "Oh boy..."

When we heard that Disney was creating a new collection with Ethan Allen we were excited to see what classic design items would be developed. The new collection launched on Mickey Mouse's birthday: November 18th. We stopped by our local store to see some pieces in person. The first question we were asked was "Are you decorating a kids room?" which made us wonder if it was all childish...

Update: Why We Changed Our Name to The Orlando DINKs

Yup, you read that correctly, after 6 years of being known as The Disney DINKs, we are officially changing our name to The Orlando DINKs.

While changing one word doesn’t seem like a huge change, it feels pretty huge to us since this has been our identity for so long. There are a few reasons why we decided to make the change, some of which are directly related to Disney and some that aren’t. Before we really get into it, we want to be very clear that this article isn’t an intent to bash Disney by any means. We have had amazing experiences related to Disney, from our wedding, multiple Anniversary trips on both coasts, and Disneyland Paris. Being Disney Vacation Club members has allowed us to experience some amazing destinations including Hawaii, Hilton Head Island, and Vero Beach. None of these would have been possible without DVC. We have also had the pleasure of sharing these experiences with friends and family throughout the years. So while it may seem like we are quitting Disney, we certainly are not (and please note we are even keeping our fun mouse ear branding!) Read on to learn more…

Setting Sail on a Disney Specialty Cruise with a Private Fireworks View

With the July 4th fireworks at Walt Disney World canceled this year, we figured it was the perfect time to reminisce about a special fireworks experience we had last fall. We are always amazed at the amount of special activities and tours available at Disney and booking a private specialty fireworks cruise was one awesome time. Technically our friends Max and Niki had booked the experience for their honeymoon, but they let us crash the party and come along (how nice are they right?). One night last fall our group of four enjoyed some drinks at the Top of the World then set sail on our private pontoon. Read on to hear all about our enchanted evening sailing.

Is Disney Vacation Club Worth It? A DVC Review & Guide

If you have read some of our resort reviews before, you may have figured out that we are Disney Vacation Club (DVC) members. We have been blue card holders since 2013 and have used our membership in various ways. We find that we get a lot of questions about DVC, with the most frequent being “Is DVC worth it?” It can be a bit confusing at first to figure out how the membership exactly works so we wanted to break it down for our readers. With this article we will be covering…

Our Story: Why We Started The Disney DINKs Blog (Dual Income, No Kids & Disney Travel!)

We were recently asked to participate in a “Disney Friends Blog Hop” for people to discover other Disney blogs in the community. (You can learn a little more about that at the the bottom of this post!) We also realized with many new visitors recently it may be a good time to share a bit more about the two authors behind the posts. There are two things we tend to get asked pretty frequently. Many people are curious of how we decided to launch a Disney based blog geared towards an adult crowd. Many people are also curious about the term “DINKs” (Dual Income No Kids) and we wanted to touch a bit on our journey to decide to be childfree. So here is a little peek into the world of Julie and Andrew…
