Why personalized Disney lyric canvases lead this category

Most Disney park souvenirs are bought in the moment and forgotten in the closet. Personalized lyric canvases are different because they're: (1) tied to a specific song the family already loves, (2) printed with the trip date, and (3) wall-display-able, so they get visited every time you walk past them. We've shipped 17,000+ canvases and the Disney trip souvenir use case is a top-5 ordering occasion.
