Build-A-Bear unveils new Disney Princess Collection during Princess Weekend


My 5 year old absolutely LOVES Build-A-Bear Workshop and it seems that every special occasion from birthdays to holidays and even just because-days is marked by the purchase of a brand new, custom-build cuddle buddy!  My, how our collection has grown over the years!  

As huge fans of Disney AND BABW, we were so excited to discover the special Princess Weekend taking place beginning today and running through this Sunday, January 13th at stores across the country.  The all new Disney Princess Bear collection looks amazing and just paw-perfect for my little princess, so we will be making the trek down to Santa Rosa tomorrow to bring one home!  For more information on this weekend's Royal Events at Build-A-Bear Workshop please check out the official press release below!
So many cute Disney Princess Bear options!  I think out favorite is  the multi tie-dye bear with
DD's favorite Aurora ensemble!
