OK, I found out through asking that Disney Florist can take anything available through the Disney merchandise mail order service and put it into a basket/arrangement for you. So if you wanted to have them put into something, like a gift basket, or incorporate them into a floral arrangement. Or better yet, they do offer baskets with either wine, champagne, sparkling cider, or even beer. Putting the hats in something like that would be nice.
This is what I did (as instructed by them through an e-mail from a lady named Marie Hart).
First I called Disney Mail Order to make sure they even had the merchandise I wanted in my basket, they did. Their number:407-363-6200
Then I browsed the florist's website (disneyflorist.com) to see what they offered, or what they could do. They can custimize stuff, but since I was already doing something different I just picked a basket they already had to make it easier for them.
Then I called and ordered the basket I wanted, told them what I was doing so that they knew to expect the merchandise, paid, and this gave me the order # for them.
Their number: 407-827-3505 ( i know they have an 800 number, but I can't find it.)
Then I called Mail order and talked to Barbara (Marie said to talk to Edie, Barbara, or Sandra). Explained it was for a basket that Disney Florist was doing for me, gave them the order # from Disney Florist so they make a note of it and so Disney Florist would know what order the merchandise was for when they got it.
Marie said to call a day or two before the delivery date to make sure they got the mershandise and make sure everything turned out ok. We'll see how it goes on the 14th.
Not quite as nice or simple as Peggy's service but it's nice to know it can be done in a round about way.
