Got ours today. As I pulled into the driveway the fed-ex man was there. He had this big box and I said where did that come from. I must of looked like a little kid at Christmas because he took one look at me and started laughing, and when he said Disney Vacation Club I must of been jumping up and down.

Our framed collar is different then the one above. It has more red in it. I think it is a beautiful gift and I am very proud to own it. I will most likely spend the next few days walking around the house with it trying to figure where to display it proudly. I couldnt be happier.

Ta da! Got ours today and I must say that it will look very nice in our house. Had to drive to the FedEx place tonight, couldn't wait for a delivery tomorrow.

We got a tag today, I'll pick it up tomorrow! Can't wait!

Got ours today!!

I called Dh on my way home and asked did we get a package, he said there was a Door Tag, so I zoomed over to Fedex to pick it up. Well the day driver left it on the truck and the evening driver had already left. She radioed the eve driver and told him to bring my package back, cause I was not leaving without it! I waited about 30 min. for him to return (Great service on Fedex' part even though they forgot to clear the truck!) and I opened it right there!! I was so worried if they had received our engraving request and actually forgot what I sent in! I just knew it would be a mess, because we had so little guidance from DVC and everytime I called, no one knew what I was talking about!

Well all is well that ends well! It turned out great! I only had enough room for our hyphenated last name and a combo of our initials.

I love how everyone's is different! Like each family tribe has their own colors! My favorite color is orange!

Great Job DVC and we will display ours prominently in our home

We got ours today as well. I had actually forgotten about it. We're not too impressed and don't really have a place to put it, but it is a nice gift.

Oh, my gosh, I think they are so cool! We're away from home for a couple of days; hopefully ours will be waiting for us when we get home. We have a wonderful Mickey Room where I will display it.

I had a FedEx note on my door last night saying they tried to deliver a package. Apparently, we need to sign for it.

I don't own at AKV, but I think it is a nice commemorative. Especially considering each seems to be unique.

 

[tink too]

We're not even owners at AKV, but I thing those gifts are gorgeous! They are very appropriate for the resort.

After two days missing the Fedex guy, on the third day I finally caught up with him. i was not expecting this hugh box from DVC, what a wonderful gift.
I will take a pic and post later. Liferbabe, my plaque was the same as yours, everyone first name intials and last name, on paper it looked stranged but on the plaque it looks great. Now i have my brick in front of the Magic kingdom & now VAKL collar framed, i cant wait to see the quilt !

 

[Inkmahm]

Ours is mostly red and blue with a row of white in the center and a row of green right arount the neck. I really like it. Even though it has my name and my husband's name (first initials and different last names) on it, I brought it to work today to hang in my office. It is the first thing you see when you walk in as it is on the wall directly across from the door. I've already gotten a compliment on it, that it looks great where I have it!

Thank you, DVC!

We got ours!!! It looks much better 'in real life' than in photos. We're gone on business again for a couple of days, but when I can I will post a pic of ours.

Did anyone else read Allears? According to them there isn't going to be a Founder's Tapestry now. They're going a different route.

In addition to their ties to the themes and design elements of Disney's Animal Kingdom Villas, these collars also complement the resort's Founding Member ceremonial robes, which will be displayed in the resort lobby. Inspired by and modeled after traditional ceremonial robes worn by African tribal leaders, each robe will feature intricate stitched patterns that incorporate the names of every Founding Member in a unique and unexpected way.

Don't know if this has been posted. Didn't see anything in the search.

No tapestry? Really?

First I've heard about it.
