Headed to DLR this week for the first time, and I can't seem to find any info about a Christmas shop. One of our longstanding WDW traditions is to purchase an ornament and have the year painted on it. Actually, we typically buy several ornaments for our Disney tree (yeah, we have multiple trees - we love Christmas!) at the Christmas shop in MK and/or in DTD.

Does DLR have a Christmas store? If not, are there ornaments we can buy and have the year painted on? Where are they sold?
 
Yes you can by ornaments in several of the Disney stores along mainstreet and at the big store in Downtown Disney. I tend to get mine at the shop the right side of mainstreet going to the castle, it is one of the middle shops, next to the crystal stuff. I can't remember if I had them put the dates or if I did it with paint pens at home. We do the same thing everytime we go. I love that they have the really cool ones. I usually get them on our last day as we do our final shopping trip.
 
They have tons of ornaments and other decorations at the Off The Page shop in DCA.
 

NOS has a shop of ornaments as well. I'm not sure that I've ever seen them paint the year on them though. We try to get one that signifies something about our year or that specific trip, and then I just write the year on it at home if necessary. Some things don't "need" a year--for example, the Mickey and Minnie on the giant diamond ring. I don't think we're going to forget what year we got married ;) Others, like our giant silver Mickey outline ornament has "2012" already engraved on it.
 
There is no dedicated Christmas Shop in DLR, but they do sell ornaments at several of the shops throughout the parks and DTD. The China Closet (MS in DL), Off the Page and Julis Katz & Sons (in DCA), and World of Disney (in DTD) all carry a large selection of ornaments.

In terms of personalization, I know they had lots of locations during the holiday season, but outside of those months, I can't think of anywhere that does it. The shop in NOS might, but it's currently closed.

I am not saying it's the same, but if you buy one of the permanent markers (silver or gold), you can probably write your own year on whichever ornament you choose. I was watching them write years on the ornaments last year, and that seemed like how they did it (I didn't notice the brand of pen they used, but it looked like a regular art marker).
 
L’Ornament Magique in NOS is gone, that location will be the new entrance to Club 33 :goodvibes

Thanks for the update! I hadn't looked the last time I was there, but knew that's where we always went to get our ornaments on past trips. I'll miss that little shop! (Though I'll forgive Club 33 for taking over the space, *maybe* if I ever get to go ;) )

Glad to hear this I put up multiple trees also.
 
Thanks, everyone! I knew Disney wouldn't pass up on the opportunity to sell merchandise, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a big one-stop shop somewhere.
