THE GREAT MOUSE EAR SEARCH: Painted Ears by ArtGirlCathy

It is time for another edition of THE GREAT MOUSE EAR SEARCH.   One thing ALL Disney fans  can never get enough are Mouse Ears!    The more original, the better!   When I came across this week's set, I was in awe.

Cathy Mejia of ArtGirlCathy hand paints beautiful artwork onto Mouse Ears!   She can do both the headband style, and the classic Mickey Mouse Club style as well!

When I got my pair in the mail, I literally squealed in delight!    These are some of my favorite ears so far!!!  
I love this Mickey and Minnie Mouse design!!!   My daughter saw them and wanted to steal them, said this is the Mommy pair, sorry!

Whatever Cathy uses, makes these headbands very comfortable!    Did not squeeze the head at all!   And even though they have a ton of detail and are hand painted, they do not feel heavy in the least bit at all!   I am beyond in love with these ears and will definitely be ordering from her again!  She does custom ears too, so if you have a certain design you want, just ask her!

She even included the cutest blingy mouse ear earrings that she hid inside a little shell case!   It was adorable and super kind of her!



Here is a little bit more about Cathy:

WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO MAKE THESE BEAUTIFUL MOUSE EARS?
Classic Disneyland. Mickey and Minnie mouse, they never go out of style.


WHICH PAIR IS YOUR FAVORITE TO MAKE?
My favorite pair is the haunted mansion/madamn leotia .


DO YOU HAND PAINT THEM ALL?
I make all types of mickey ears. Some with just fabric on both sides(depending on style of fabric, if it has characters on it). But the handpainted mickey mouse ears are by far my favorite to paint. I come up with the characters or I let my customer come up with them.

Donut Ears she made for her grandaughter



WHICH PAIR IS YOUR MOST POPULAR?
Right now the haunted mansion/ madamn leotia.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU COME UP WITH NEW DESIGNS?
All the time. I love to paint so its fun to be able to paint any characters.

I SEE YOU SELL OTHER DISNEY INSPIRED PRODUCTS, WHAT ALL DO YOU MAKE?
I make ribbon and fabric bows with bottle cap/Disney images. I make Disney waffle earrings and rings.

DO YOU HAND MAKE THE EARRINGS?
I sculpt the first item then i make a mold to make more.

HOW OFTEN DO YOU GET TO VISIT DISNEY?
I have a deluxe pass so i visit about every two weeks. 

DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE DISNEY MEMORY?
When my kids were small they got so much joy from Disneyland it just filled up my heart and now i get to take my grand-kids and see the joy in their faces! Its wonderful!

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE DISNEY CHARACTER AND WHY?

My favorite Disney character is the classic Daisy Duck! Shes classy, spirited and strong!
