What it is: These are completely wonderful ornaments and pins being released each month. Each set commemorates a Disney Classic and the storybooks those classics are based on.

Who it's For: Anyone who likes Disney Ornaments or Disney Pins, people who like Disney Classics, People who like Storybooks, and anyone who just likes cute little things.

What it Costs: So far, only the first two months (August and September) have been released but, the ornaments for August and September $19.95 each plus shipping and tax. The pin for August is already sold out (I may cry) but the September pin is still available and, like last month's pin, it is listed at $14.95. Prices may vary but, I think we can expect most months to be around the same.

How to Get it: These are an online exclusive available only here.

Why It's A Find of the Day: I Love these! There are so many Disney Shorts that may not sound all that familiar at first, but once you see them you think, "Oh yeah, I remember seeing that when I was a kid." These shorts, either independently produced or created as a part of an anthology released as a full-length film, are a hugely important part of both Disney history and the Disney library of animated work.

This yearlong series will commemorate these important works and feature everything from full-length feature films like Snow White and Mary Poppins to  compilation films like Make Mine Music, Fun and Fancy Free, and Melody Time, which featured classics like Mickey and the Beanstalk, Pecos Bill, and Peter and the Wolf. What this collection has in common is that they are all Disney classics based on storybooks. At this point, a lot of the Disney cartoons are more famous than the original storybooks.

I am particularly excited about this one because it highlights some great Disney animation that many have now forgotten. While most of us have heard of Snow White, I was shocked to learn that there are plenty of people who haven't heard of Casey at Bat. I am a huge fan of Lambert the Sheepish Lion (to be commemorated in November), but not that many people remember it anymore. It's a great story and I think it's wonderful that it's being commemorated in ornaments and pins.

Worthy of Note: The "September" ornament and Pin were not released until the END of September. We can probably expect the same to be true of the October ones. As we saw with the August pin, these things do sell out so, if you want one, you should go ahead and order it. Today is an especially good day to place your order because you can get free shipping by using promo code FREESHIP at checkout.
