A Mouse in the House

Filed under They Made Their Mark

From Drexel Heritage

Disney is EVERYWHERE.  Certainly my market must be one of the last frontiers for them, no?

My friend and client, Rebecca was BORN with mouse ears on her head.  She harasses me (lovingly) all the time because as a fundamental contrarian, I refuse to visit Disneyworld.  She won’t admit it, but I just know she considers it child abuse.  She sent me an email yesterday, with just a picture of a beautiful room to tease me.  Guess what?  The room is from The Walt Disney Signature Collection from Drexel Heritage and the stuff is gorgeous! 

Drexel Heritage is an upscale manufacturer of fine furniture.  They paired with Disney to bring this “non-character, adult high end line…of over fifty pieces”. The fabrics are styled after Walt’s personal clothing.  The collection has been described as relaxed glamour or casual elegance, which apparently WAS the signature style of Walt himself.   

This line is meant get grab those couple of stragglers (like me) who try to avoid worshiping the Princess Goddesses and Animated Angels with my cash.  Pam Lifford, from Disney Home, admits this in the promotional video, “It is a chance for us to create an everyday approach to home décor and it allows a family to experience it in a way in which they would not have experienced the Walt Disney Company.”

IT IS WORKING.  Check out these pictures:
