Disney is something that all children love and their characters are engrained in our fairytale stories. Disney has a way of making all little girls want to become princesses and all little boys to grow up big and strong. Today Disney has recreated many of their luxury items you’re used to seeing in the movies available as part of their homes.

Esmeralda from the Disney adaptation of “The Hunchback of Notre Dame“
Princess Tiana ~ “The Princess And The Frog“
Mulan ~ Disney Feature Animation
Princess Jasmine ~ “Aladdin“
Ariel ~ “The Little Mermaid“
Aurora ( Briar Rose ) ~ Sleeping Beauty
Aurora is the “Sleeping Beauty” in Disney’s version of the Grimm Brother’s moderated rendition of French folk tales. In those stories, the young princess was pricked by a poisoned thorn, fell asleep and was taken advantage of by a married prince. The princess gives birth to twins, all of them loathed by the prince’s wife who orders the cook to have the children fed to their father. Upon knowing he was eating his own children, the prince grew furious and threw his wife into the fire. Fortunately, the cook was a kind soul and substituted lamb meat in place of the children. This illustration is derived from a photo of Bella Thorne, one of Disney’s young talents.
Snow White by Razhbi.
Snow White from the Disney Classic “Snow White and the Seven Dwarves” is a princess whose beauty is the object of her stepmother’s envy. The evil queen attempted to have her killed but the assassin took pity on Snow White and sent her to the woods wherein she would meet the seven dwarves and, eventually, her prince after she falls into a comafrom eating a poisoned apple handed to her by her disguised stepmother. This image is derived from a picture of the late Elizabeth Taylor, a legendary Hollywood actress also known for her unrivaled beauty.
Tinkerbell ~ “Peter Pan“
Tinker Bell, from the Disney adaptation of J.M. Barrie’s “Peter and Wendy”, is a fairy who mends pots, kettles and metal utensils. She plays a minor role in Disney’s “Peter Pan” but eventually landed a string of movies and series dedicated solely to her which also features several other fairy characters from Pixie Hollow. The illustration at the right is derived from a photo of Audrey Hepburn with her famous pixie cut hair. The images above were compiled from here.
