That shop is already just about there anyway, but it still seems a little over the top, especially with the Princess Fantasy Fair (gag) so close. It also seems to be a very small space for trying to do much of anything along the lines of what I would assume they're trying to do. The shop is currently pretty long and narrow, without much room between the walls (maybe 15 ft at widest point, where the register is). I just can't picture the guest flow through there would work very well, or that it will be a fun place to be in general (unless you're a little girl of course). But most of all, this raises the question: Will we ever get the Fantasyland Theater back?

It's the one next to Snow White's Scarey Adventure. It has 2 doors in fantasyland and one on the side of the castle facing Main Street.
Originally Posted By EmmaJayne I really dislike the 'make over' area in Fantasy Faire and I hope it's not simmilar.. although I did enjoy having my face painted there on July 4th it was very expensive for hair styles and make up.. and some of the kids getting it down were so young! They looked cutesy but even still.. for the same money I'd rather have a princess dress..
Originally Posted By dresswhites i am not pleased with this idea. how many places do they need to make little girls up? they already have princess fantasy faire and that little stand across from the matterhorn. now they need a whole other store? i know dressing like a princess is big right now and i don't blame disney for cashing in on it, but i think they should just devote one area for it. not half of fantasyland. i wish they would turn the once upon a time store back into the tinkerbell toy store or maybe put the christmas store there. i like the space, i like to walk through the store, plz disney don't turn it into a little girl salon. well i guess it is too late!
