disney "tools" sold at WDW

[disneyfan2]

there are limited disney supplies where i am, but i would love to get disney tools, punches etc. what do they offer in WDW for scrapbooking?

I saw several punches - Tinkerbell, Mickey ears, and don't remember what else when I was there in December. I wasn't ready to buy them as I have to get my office/craft room organized before buying any more supplies. They also have scissors but I had read on here somewhere that they weren't the greatest. That's the only tools I remember.

Pretty much the only tools, are the punches and the scissors. And, yes, the scissors are basically worthless. I do love the punches though. The ones I have purchased at Disney are Mickey, Minnie, Stitch, Tinkerbell, and a Castle. They also sell Mickey shaped eyelets, but they can be hard to set without the paint flaking off.

Ugh, tell me about it. I have them and are afraid to use them for fear they will look "aged".

Have you tried setting them with the Crop-A-Dile? I read somewhere that it sets them "smooth like buttah". (I haven't done any myself yet though.)

A good friend from these boards got some things & sent them to me last year. In addition to the Tink & Castle punches, she sent a set of stamps in a wooden box. There were full body (head to toe) stamps of the Fab5 plus Daisy as well as just their heads. And then a set of 4 stamps for the parks. There was also a pencil box with templates - one for each park - & colored pencils in it. I think that's all that was in it.

There are also spiral clips shaped like the Mickey icon.

I'm not sure where you are located & know shipping to Canada & the UK can be an issue, but there are some great resources online. Plaid has some great Disney punches available that you can't get at Michaels. http://www.plaidonline.com/productSearchResults.asp?cat2ID=33&cat3ID=113

If this is an option for you, check out the sticky thread at the top about Scrap sites. I know a lot of people like these:

Then there's always http://www.bargainpack.com/ if you don't mind waiting for your stuff to arrive. Shipping can sometimes take a couple weeks from her.

I definitely recommend setting the mickey head eyelets with the crop a dile. It works so well and no paint flaking. I use it all the time and use eyelets so much more now.

I agree, the Crop a dile is awesome for these! I received a CAD for Christmas and haven't put it down yet. It is the best tool if you set eyelets!

Last time I was at Disney, I bought a Castle punch, Tink punch and Mickey ears punch! I love the punches...I don't usually use them on my layouts (mostly because I forget I have them), but more on Swaps or CJ's. They are just so cool to have! I plan on buying a Stitch one next time I am there!
