Autograph Items to Guest Services unusual?

We are sailing in 12 days and I have the pillowcase done I want to take to GS for autographs and I want to take one other thing since we can have 2.
I was thinking about putting a character embroidery on a cinch backpack for DD OR I am not sure if this will fly to take a Disney themed childs book and have them sign inside the covers?
I think this will make a wonderful keepsake of our trip. I am contemplating just letting my DD (8) take it to character autograph signings but wondered if too akward?

I love the idea of a AP plate or purchasing a melanoite platter to do it as well but then it has to be displayed somewhere, LOL.

I am trying to think of something else to have autographed, I love the idea of a christmas ornament but worry with it getting broken; I am not into vinylmation. I am sitting on the fence for a frame mat.

I love the book idea. I would (and might) take a few books and have them autographed by the live characters (that are in the book) and when they autograph them have a picture taken with them doing the Autograph and my son. Then I can print the picture and put it inside the book and have a great keepsake for my son.

I could see the books but they take up sooo much room(we move alot).

I like the bag. You could frame it later with pics from the cruise.

We are going to do tshirts, Disney ones of course

I just had the princesses sign the inside cover of a princess story book for my granddaughter. It turned out wonderful!

Talked to someone else on the ship that submitted an autograph book to get all the signatures on one page and fill in the opposite page with their own picture with the character.

We've also done the photo frames, but make sure to indicate landscape or portrait. We didn't and the signatures were opposite of the picture we wanted to use.

We picked up a tote bag (canvas) and some fabric pens. My daughter is going to decorate it and then have it signed. I'll post a photo in a few weeks

Are there any "rules" regarding what can be signed? I am planning on creating a Mickey pirate flag (reverse coloring) for the characters to sign, but was wondering if they would refuse doing it because it is not an "official" product.

We printed out the cruise ears made by someone in our cruise to iron on transfer onto a white bag. They all signed. Someone did shoes.

I think pretty much anything goes.

I am a quilter and "Wonder"if I prepared white squares of fabric would the characters sign them?
After the cruise I could combine them with cruise pictures I had printed on fabric and make them into a quilt for my grandson who will be on the cruise

2 plates

We went on the 8 night from Galveston in Jan. This cruise included a day at WDW. While we were on the cruise, our awesome table mates got married! We bought 2 plates (one dinner plate, black and white with a Mickey in the middle, and one smaller plate) We dropped both plates off at GS 1/2 way through the cruise. We have the larger plate with all signatures hanging in our kitchen. The smaller plate we had only Mickey and Minnie sign and we gave to our table mates as a wedding gift! I would love to share a pic of our plate, but I don't know how to post a picture on here. Can someone help me out? I would love to show you all!!

Yes, please post pics of it!! I had thought of doing this and would like to see how it turns out. The other thing I thought of is to have a plain white vinymation autograpghed. Then, someone mentioned that walgreens has solid white stuffed graduation Mickeys. The vest portion of the Mickey is also white so it can be autographed and they believe the cap can be removed. I have yet to check them out.

Aw, how sweet!! I'm sure they loved it!!! It took me forever to figure out how to post a pic on here. Set up an account on photobucket, upload your pic on there and from there you can use the link provided to copy into the comment post like you when you create a post.
