List of items for characters to sign

[PrincessAbby'sMom]

Since "search" is down, so I cant look it up.... & after scrolling pages & pages & not finding it.... Im just gonna ask: give me a list of items that you or others get signed by th characters?

I have read:
Photo mats, valmations, tshirts, canvas bags....

The other thing I thought of is buying a cruise photo album & having them sign the inside cover.. Or the cover depending?!?!

What else have soe gotten signed?

I saw where some bought some of those wooden letters (like you get from craft stores). Painted them white and had them signed.

Autograph books
Baseball cap

Pillowcases are also a good thing to get signed. You can decorate them ahead of time. I have a really cute set I had done on the Wonder in 2005.

I sailed on the Dream in the fall I had a beautiful pillow case made for my dd 21 who got married on the ship and a mat for a photo that turned out stunning it was a 11x14 If i could ever figure out how to post pics i could show you

my absolute favorite was our photo mat - all signed in black (11x14), then our 8x10 picture in it with a nice big black frame - all from Michaels - it hangs in our front hall and everyone that sees it comments on it - so, so special!!!

We did a canvas covered wide frame for a 4 x 6 photo one year.
Recently, I painted clipboards in the kids' favorite character colors. Minnie, Goofy, Pluto & Cinderella. I added some fabric accents to Minnie & bows on the girls. And a collar, tail & ears on Pluto. Goofy had his hat, vest & button details. Characters signed front & back. My sister brought a small soccer ball to be signed for her older son, who wasn't with us.

We've done 11x14 prints of the ships (the Alaska picture is pre-signatures, but it turned out great!)

And you can get the prints/pictures on board?

I actually solicited a high-resolution picture from the nice folks on this board. Then I added the text (ship, dates, ports) and printed it at Costco (super cheap!). We've got them hanging in the basement.

I might steal this idea. It's brilliant!!!

Depending on your cruise, dgs reads a book about one or more of the ports and has it signed. We will be taking " Pinnochio " on the Med cruise this summer. He is collecting quite a collection!

I love the piggy bank idea! Let us know how it turns out.

[jules4172]

all of these are such great ideas. For those that did the picture mats, what typr of pen/marker do you recommend? Thnx.

 

[AmyAnne]

This is a great thread -- especially love the photos of the signed items!

If you give them colored pens, will the characters pick "their" colors?

And I have read about leaving a thank-you bag of treats with the pens and item to be signed -- any other tips? I've never done this despite being on many DCL cruises, so I am excited to have this as something new for this cruise.
