Door Signs? What are they?

[TinkerKat]

And what is a "HD Mickey"?
Is this a way to decorate our cabin doors as opposed to our windows at the resorts?
Cruising two weeks from today! Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks!
Kathy

HD Mickey heads are paint color "chips" in the shape of a Mickey Head for paint that you can get at the Home Depot. Some folks use them to decorate their door signs.

Door signs are a great way to make it easy to find your stateroom or celebrate a special occasion. See http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=625899 for some ideas or do a search on Door Signs.

It made it very easy for us to find each others rooms. Everyone had their favorite characters and a short quote next to them on the door sign. Then when anyone went looking for the other persons room, it was easier to find. Especially if you are scattered over several decks as we will be on the repo cruise. Also, if you end up changing rooms (which we did TWICE due to upgrading & AC problems) the first thing that caught everyones eye was that the door sign was on a new door and/or missing from the old door.

OK, so now I have a start point.
But where can I get the cruise Logo Background for door sign?

Thanks Again!

I pulled the background I used in our sign from this website. Just right click on a part of the background and then select "save background as".

I also found a captain Mickey image on this site.

Here is how my door sign came out.

OK, how big do you make these signs? How do you put them on the door...tape?

I want one, I want one!!!

Can you get a magnetic one made at Kinko's or is there another way to do it so it is magnetized? Do people use them at WDW? On windows or doors?

The examples look so cool!

 

[Zandy595]

I print my signs on 8½" x 11" magnetic sheets. I buy them at Walmart for $7.84 for a pkg of 5.

Thank you! I got some today. This will be fun. I am getting excited about this cruise - despite these horrible hurricanes!!

 

[Fawn]

I'm on my way to Wal-mart because I simply do not have enough balls in the air already before we leave Thursday!



What a fun idea! This board is great!

 

[goin'cruisin']

Isn't that the truth!!! Our cruise is coming up really fast and I have a million things to do, but door signs have somehow gotten on the priority list!

Zandy595, I was able to see your pictures this time (I got an error before). They are great! Where did you get the Mickey Ears background?

 

[Zandy595]

I found the Mickey background on a Disney fan web site a few years ago. I don't think it exists anymore. I can email it to you, if you'd like.

 

[goin'cruisin']

It would be great if you could email me the mickey ears background. Thanks!

Oh, so glad I checked out this thread. You've all answered so many of my questions. I had no idea there were magnetic sheets available!!

Thanks!!
