VeronicaS1970 Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 DH has gotten us tshirts on Etsy. We have also made our own magnets. We did valentine's and super bowl this past February. Usually we try to do something based on where we are going or if there is a holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twangster Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 If going the magnet route get one that is personalized so that no one else would want it, otherwise it will be stolen by magnet grinches.

Looking to have names on magnets and Harmony OTS on t-shirt. thank you we have used different sellers, lots to choose from. We have always been pleased with our purchases. We usually do magnets with our names on them. I have also bought cheap decorations at Dollar Tree and put magnets on them. I don't care so much if those get taken, though I can't say we have ever had that happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my magnets said Island Time. Of course it was stolen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
need2cruz Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 I had no idea magnets could be stolen. We've had both personalized and not personalized and have never had them stolen. Our last cruise we had different ocean animals that represented each of the 5 of us but not personalized. We would move them around on the doors multiple times each day. I had no idea that magnet thieves were a thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neesa Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 We were on Deck 17 on the Harmony and one of our magnets was taken. It had dolphins and said Three best friends cruise! I was so upset but they always left the doors open to that deck. I did find it though, I walked round the entire deck, they just moved it to another door on the port side. Sadly I removed all my magnets from the door for the rest of the sailing. Some sailings it happens, I've been on a total of 18 sailings and only twice were my magnets violated. But do not put out a white board and marker. Do that and boy oh boy, just wow! AlohaLivin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlohaLivin Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Like @Neesawe usually get our door magnets from various Etsy vendors. We have a few different ones at this point. We have both of the ones below (one is ready for our Holiday 2023 B2B already). These are photos of the shop’s samples as I didn’t have photos of ours. Be creative, have fun!

whitsmom Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 I have ordered a few door magnet signs from Zazzle that can be personalized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireFishII Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 I made up my own. I used images found on the web and added any texted I wanted. Then I used my home color printer to print them out on magnetic paper sheets. Staples sells them. Each person got their own image (like a giraffe for my sister) with their names on it. They were a hit and helped to find our rooms. They were never stolen. Lucky maybe? Or maybe the thieves did not like my image choices. LOL!

SpeedNoodles Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 A t-shirt won't get stolen (well, at least if you're wearing it, lol). Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xaa Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 Custom ink is good for shirts if you go that route. Simple design tools to use. Neesa 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our cruise last month we had white boards on the doors along with several magnet designs. The first morning I noticed someone had written “hi” from GA on my board. So I drew a smiley face and wrote HI back at you! All week we had people leaving us messages as well as letting us know which state they were from…it was so fun! fireclan and WAAAYTOOO 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but you can only wear the t-shirt once. The door magnet does not need to be washed between days. LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every day it was vandalized. When I would erase it they would get even more aggressive. No more sticking anything on the outside of the door.

CruiseCollector Posted October 11, 2022 Report Share Posted October 11, 2022 We sailed on the Mariner over Christmas 2021 and decided to do both! Many families had matching pajamas on Christmas morning and it was great fun! It was fun to see all the outfits and everyone was in a festive mood and so happy to be cruising again. 65% capacity didn’t hurt either. Also wanted to decorate our door and found this fun Christmas Gnome on Amazon. We will be on Anthem over Thanksgiving and plan to do the same. I purchased matching t-shirts on Etsy and found a fun magnetic turkey for the cabin door. Can’t wait to sail again. 🛳 Neesa and WAYNO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
