gifts for adults for FE gift exchange

[misseulalie]

This time around we are having adults participating in our FE gift exchange. Can you give me some ideas as to what you put in the ADULT goodie bags?
I'm thinking little fruity cocktail mini-bottles, leis, mini candy bars, cool pens, etc.. What else?? I need LOTS of ideas.

Thanks!!!

Fish Extender. It is something that hangs from the fish outside your stateroom door and has pockets. If you participate in your meets' group, then you give stuff to the people and their family and you get treats yourself.

Fish Extender. Each cabin has a decorative fish outside their door. You hang a bag, or a custom made hanging pocket with different sections to stick presents, notes or other goodies.

Can anyone post pic's please?

Has anyone ever just used a tote bag, etc., for their FE? I have looked at the FE's on EBAY and they are sooo cute but wondered if anyone just goes on the cheap? Do not want to look too tacky but would like to save a few $$'s where I can.....

We do. Get a cheap one from the dollar store or similar, then personalize it with glitter glue, fabric markers, etc. Make sure to personalize it so no one decides to walk off with it. Unfortunately it happens

I've seen some cool stuff at Oriental Trading company, like lanyards with the grommets to hold a water bottle... Journals, of course the adults can use the pirate tattos (maybe with a travel bottle of baby oil to take them off...) on pirate night.

I picked up some small photo albums at Target and then personalized them with stickers printed with the name and date of the cruise, plus a few Disney images as well.

I got a really nice one from ETSY seller StitchesNBows. Price vary according to the number of pockets you need. She also customizes them.

Love that idea of little bottles of cocktails/wine.

We just cruised and I received a really cute Disney tote bag...you know one you can take shopping with you instead of using the plastic ones the stores give out. Also got magnetic white board. Oh, and from people from Texas....a bottle of steak seasoning, which we LOVE!

Thanks, I will take a look. Appreciate all the great ideas.

For my last cruise, I bought a Trick or Treat bag from Target. Black, drawstring with pirate skull on it. Perfect!

Yep I got mine! From everything I've seen, saving a few bucks yet having a really nice FE means getting one from StitchesNBows on Etsy! For what you get the price can't be beat!

Compeltely custom right down to the crusie, family names, colors and embellishments!

I also just got mine from StitchesNBows. Our cruise isn't until 9/2011 but I couldn't wait. If I knew how to post pictures I would post one. Jen maybe you could. I love what she did with mine. I am going to hang it up this weekend on our motorhome @ Ft. Wilderness, maybe some Diser's will see it and leave me gifts.

Here is a picture of our FE. I'm going to remove the wording "Magic" and replace with Wonder for our PC cruise in January. I don't sew so I was pleased by the way it turned out

For our cruise last Dec, I did something similar to what a PP said - I bought mini albums from Target. I found a picture of the ship at Castaway Cay on here and asked the user if I could use it. Received permission and then added text, printed, and added it as the cover.

Do you have a picture of your FE after you replaced the "Magic" with "Wonder"? I would love to see it!
