I know I read some where that many people decorated their cabin doors? What are some things that you have done or seen? This is out first cruise and we are counting down the days... 17 and counting and do not know who is more excited, me or the kids...Just wanting to make it the most magical time.. Also my son will turn 5 while we are on the" big boat" as he is telling everyone...

How did you go about making them? My mom and I are talking about taking one in January since it will be our last mother/daughter trip for a while due to my pregnancy. I would love to make a special one for that trip and surprise her.

You can only use magnets - DCL does not allow any kind of tape/adhesive. Most folks buy magnetic sheets they can put in their printers, and create the images on their computers. Of course, any kind of "refrigerator magnet" idea would work.

That's what I thought. I've printed on the magnet paper before, but when we went this past January, some of the magnets seemed to be pretty professional looking

If you use a cricut machine, I think that they are coming out somtime this fall with magnetic sheets that the cricut will cut.

DD and I had a blow up Mickey Mouse which we tied to our fish - the one used to put your messages on. It worked well for us - we always knew which was our cabin. It was lovely to hear all the kids greet Mickey on their way past too!

I didn't do any on our first cruise but was amazed how creative people are. If you look on the boards, especially the meet and greet one, you can get some great ideas for your door decorations. I am working on mine. I picked up a roll of adhesive magnets from a craft store and intend to attach my printouts to that. I figured I could make them as big or little as I wanted using the roll instead of sheets.

I also found a roll of magnet tape at Staples and I can stick it to pictures or whatever to go on the door. Also found some locker decorations in school supplies and they are magnetic as well. Getting ready for our door in January

Oooh! I love the Mickey ears above the door number circle!!! How did you make those? Did you already know the diameter of the circle, and if so what is it?
