Holy moly people...I can't keep up with 2 and 1/2 new pages THIS morning alone... I'm gonna have to start waking up earlier just to catch up on our thread!!!

Jen- Sorry you are having a rough day! It will all get better soon, and you are going to get that job, and you are going to rock it!

Marianne- Dang it! I wanted them to be mean, okay I wouldn't boo them at the restaurant... but in the parades, it's REALLY funny. HEHEHE

Ohhh I quite like the dark red, but yes only if everything goes with it. What else am I missing, I can't scroll back that far on a reply... HAHAHAAH

Can you tell it is getting closer? I think everyone is getting more excited.

You are just saying that so I will go to the MNSSHP. I told Mom about you wanting Victoria going to it and you wanting Victoria to be Zero and she just looked at me with that Mom look of "I don't want you to but you are too old to ground" look.

Wow the pictures are AMAZING!!! that must have been so magical!

The park looks empty! did you guys go before the opening for the pictures?

Yes, you do the park shoots before the park opens, the shoot times are 5am and 6am. Thankfully we booked it so early, we got the 6am slot. The thing about that one is, you don't get any shots with the castle all lit up, but that was ok with us...
It was AMAZING being in the park with no one else there! (Except for the moring workers)

I knew it!! I had looked at your pics under the wedding thread a few months back. beautiful!! It really is a small world...I've seen your pics and now we're on the same cruise!!

Tee hee. Neat! You can't see me now, but I'm blushing a little bit

Lori, your wedding photos are amazing. I told hubby I wanted to renew my vows.

You should totally do it!! I've already told Eoghan we'll be renewing ours! (I think I informed him of this the day we returned from our Wedding/Disnymoon trip!)

Hey guys. Feeling sorry for myself today. Being a baby I guess. Why cant the cruise be this Thursday?

Jen-Sorry to hear you are cranky...



Let's see what else? Oh! I like White, Red or one of the Blues for the shirts.

Rebekah-What were the other questions you had about the MK shoot etc.? You might not have scrolled back enough to see my post saying I would be glad to answer any questions I could (plus, I got connections)

It's very quiet here over the next few days. All the bigwigs are in Canada for a board meeting of our Canadian division...

I'm ready to chat! (and cruise!)

Hey now, I was saying that for real!!!

But I do want you to go to MNSSHP, but that is different. Too old to ground...ahahhaha... I think I will like this mother of yours...

I think you will too. I have a friend from work that met her and she just RAVES about her. Anytime anything comes up about my mom it's "her mom is go great. I just love her. She is just so nice. She has to be the best mom" I am like "what about me!!"

Jen! (Or anyone else who can answer/advise...)

So, I have a question for ya!

If I get the magnetic paper AND laminating sheets...can you instruct me how to make my magnets? Do I do the laminating first and then attach with tape to the magnet sheet?
Also, how do I personalize on the back to try and keep them from being stolen?

I need help!

What I plan to do... I'm hoping it will be cheaper to print at office max my magnets. I'm printing labels with our name and room number on them, then sticking them to the backs. We have a teacher supply store that laminates SUPER cheap ($2 for any thing that will fit on a 3x4 foot laminate sheet (which should be everything). I will laminate after the stickers are put on and then I am using magnetic strips because I have to many magnets to make and the sheets are too expensive. Jordak said it was the way to go and the strips hold great.

Oh and I'm thinking of putting up a sign. "FOR THOSE WHO FEEL THEY MAY NEED TO "BARROW" MY MAGNETS, OUT GROUP RANKS IN SIZE OF 150+ AND THEY WILL ALL BE OUT LOOKING FOR THEM. just a little fib

How about "WARNING: THESE MAGNETS CONTAIN GPS CHIPS"

SURE!

I will be more than happy to help you with your magnets! I tried the magnetic paper and it didnt work well with my printer. It had some problems feeding and it left black marks at the top. Plus I hated the margins that it left which was wasting the magnetic paper. What I then did, was print off the image on paper, then taped it to the magnetic paper. Those are kinda pulling away so I am going to have to fix it.

I then started laminating it and bought some of those magnetic strips. I got a package of 12 I think for around a dollar at walmart. The self lamination sheets, 4x6, were $3 a package for I think 10 of them. They had the 8x10 sheets, 3 for $9 but I wasnt 100% sure I could cut them (you can) and thought three packages of the 4x6 would give me more area to work with. I think I am going to buy the 8x10 next time now that I know I can cut them. But I would put the paper in it and then press it down then cut around it making sure I didnt get too close. Then I would stick the magnetic strip on the back and it is holding really well. I am not sure of the price difference of the two, but the lamination seems to be working out great.

I have heard to keep down on theft of the magnets, put the room number and name on all graphics (kinda like work them into the graphic) because if you put it on the back, they are not going to care when they steal it. It might help if they are found, but I dont think it will prevent theft. I didnt do that on mine. I am glad because we have changed rooms and might upgrade at the port

HTH!

There ya go!

 

[StarGazer99]

There ya go!

What's even funnier is that I have some extra small computer chips from school that I could put in there to make it look like it. Only an electrical or computer person would know.

Yes, i'd recommend putting your name and room # on the front. That is what we always do and we've never had any taken. She is right, if you put it on the bqck no one is gonna look and say oh hey this is marked on the back, let's leave it. We have our names on everything...on the front and we date it too...soooo uhhhh you might see old door magnets up because I'm lazy...

I think old door magnets are cool. It kinda shows where you've been, kinda like Christmas ornaments. I was going to do that with all my magnets. Just build each year.

There is no WalMart near me...I looked for magnetic strips on Stapes.com I think but couldn't find any...

Any ideas of where else to try?

I'm thinking I will just laminate and then use the strips too!

Gosh that's a hard one. I dunno. I cant find anything on the web, but I am not good at searching. I never seem to find anything and someone will come behind me with 100 options!

 

[hawky7]

They should have the magnetc strips at target or rite aid, or any of those places I would think...

 

[cruisecrasher]

Hmmm, which one is the gentleman from Texas? DH or AllTexan?

I found all kinds last night when I was surfing the net... I think office max had a pretty good price. School supply stores do also. I would look for the cheapest shipping but I also noticed that if you buy a roll instead of strips, it is cheaper.
