How many people are signed up?

On our Dream cruise last Sept 4th, I found it didn't pick up till June, around final payment.

My DD9 just made homemade luggage tags for each stateroom in our FE exchange. We ordered the luggage tags from E-bay, and bought the paper and ribbon at Hobby Lobby. I thought she did a great job and they turned out cute! Just sorry that we didn't order enough extra to keep one for ourselves!

Very cute! I've been looking for Disney ribbon. Too bad we don't have a Hobby Lobby! Your daughter did a great job!

They also had some of the same ribbon at Wal-Mart in the craft section.

I found some at wal-mart last night in the CLEARANCE section so check there if not in the craft section.

So this is part of what I am working on for our FE gift...

Bookmark/magnet with the song Brazzle Dazzle Day quote on it, beaded Mickey head charms, and a Bear Necessities emergency kit.

Had fun making everything even though I was overwhelmed at first. We ended up with 22 cabins in our group, so had to edit some of my ideas because of the cost and space, but happy with what we ended up with!

It is up to the individual - Our gifts are usually themed from our home town, we usually include a postcard with a note from our family. Some people add their names others don't, there is not "set" rule - you whatever you are comfortable with. Personally, we like to know who our gifts come from.
