no more eyelets

[WDWMom]

Just back from WDW and they did not have any eyelets. The CM at the memories store made it sound like they were no longer stocking them either. I could not find them anywhere. No resorts we visited or shops in the parks.

Swan, I saw that pfishgirl is leaving in a couple days and offered to get things for us. You could ask her to look and see if they are back in stock or finds them somewhere I did not go. Sorry.

That's odd...I saw tons last week...Even on Wednesday, when I doubled back to the store for the 50th time....I definitely saw them in the scrapbook store, WoD, as well as Mousegears and one of the stores in the Emporium...They must have JUST run out....Very interesting though, it would be surprising for them to discontinue them because they seem very popular...Maybe this means they'll redo their scrapbook stuff and get new and cooler stuff!

I was just at WDW this weekend (3/12-3/14) and I saw them everywhere too!

Hmm. They eyelets were all over the place last week, but I'll check into it and let you know what I find out.

I bought some Mickey eyelets through www.mousememories.com. Hope this helps!

That is so wierd. I was at WOD and the memories store on the 14th (Sunday) and no eyelets anywhere. Never saw them in any of the resort stores we visited all week prior to that. I never shopped at the parks really. We went through a few but never saw any with the other SB stuff.

I wouldn't recommend buying them from MouseMemories. They charge over twice the cost at WDW. You can buy them at WDW for only $3!!

I wonder if they've pulled them because of quality... or if they did indeed just run out? The ones I have (thank goodness I had people bring them back with them... lol)... anyway, the ones I have... the paint chips off when I set them. I like the look, so it doesn't bother me.

I wish they'd get with the times and get someone with an SB background to design their products. Oh, the possibilities!!!

I always double up a piece of scrap paper and put it under the eyelets before setting them. It really helps with the paint chipping problem you mentioned.

Just a tip.
You can fix your chipped Mickey islet
Just heat emboss it. You can also make custom colors or matching sets this way.

That's a great tip Chessie!

Found out that the eyelets are a great seller and there are no plans to discontinue them any time soon. Hope that helps someone!
