Disney Small Shop Review: Crown and Anchor Shop
It’s time for another Small Shop Review!
I am excited to share one of my new favorite accessories from the Crown and Anchor Shop!
But first, Let’s get to know the shop owner, Jillian!
Jillian has always been creating things. As a child she always wanted to create things as gifts for people meaning she has always had a love for handmade things and working with her hands. She used to make her own pictures and calendars but as an adult her husband was the one who encouraged her to start selling the things she made. On her birthday one year, he bought her a circuit and on christmas she received a sewing machine and so the shop was born! In short, we have Jillian’s husband to thank.
The inspiration for the title “Crown and Anchor” came from two simple things: the crown of a pineapple and and anchor. Each item has deep, symbolic meaning behind them. The pineapple symbolizes warmth, welcome, friendship and hospitality while the anchor symbolizes security, stability and that one holds strong to their beliefs. These symbols hold true to Jillian and her own life. But the symbols have become fun because friends and families send her things with anchors and pineapples on them. The logo’s color came from her spirit animal, the Flamingo.
Top three best selling products that you should consider are the following:
Now to the product i was very excited to buy! With my online handle being a play off of Annette Funicello’s “Pineapple Princess” song for a few years now, my love for pineapples has grown. It has always been my favorite fruit and it has just grown to be something i love. I was extremely excited to find a shop that was Disney Inspired and featured one of my favorite things!
I opted for the Neon Pineapple Fabric: Womens Headband/Necktie which cost $7 but $10 including shipping which is an AMAZING deal in my opinion.
It arrived in a good amount of time, about a week but all orders ship within 3-5 business days. Her shop currently only ships around the United States but the headband has become one of my absolute favorite things to wear and goes with most of my outfits. Its very comfortable and soft. Honestly i was considering buying one for my dog so we can match! Her products are handmade, creative and very affordable and good quality. It’s awesome that she has more than just Disney products too! Use coupon code “Instafriend10” to get 10% off when buying from her cool shop!
