I think ornaments would be a great gift any time of year.

First off I have to tell you all how great these gifts are! The talent and time put into making these items are amazing. I wanted to join in the fun and show what I did for my 4/2/11 Magic cruise recently.

I'm doing my first FE for my upcoming cruise in August and am just wondering if ornaments are okay to give anytime of year or only near the holidays?

I put up 8 Christmas trees each year (in varying sizes) and one is mostly disney. I'd be THRILLED to get an ornament! as a matter of fact, we always BUY ornaments on vacation too!

We only had 14 families in our FE. . . AND there was a sale on all Disney scrapbooking items at the time so I scored! I spent MAYBE $7 total per bag. I budgeted to keep my gifts around $3 pp. I did a seperate gift for the kids and then if you split the $7 by the 2 adults in the cabin that's $3.50 each. . . not too bad.

Not everyone celebrates Christmas.

Not everyone celebrates Christmas.

Nah, and not everyone lets their kids eat candy, but I'll be putting candy in with my FE gifts. I figure they can just toss it if they don't want it.

Getting so many great ideas!

I have read that people give candy that is unique to their area. We have honey sticks up here that my daughter always makes me buy that I am planning on giving out to each cabin. They are little straw like things filled with flavored honey. Do they have these other places or are they really just in our area?

I love these! We get them at a local grocery story-in the fancy food section... But would be afraid that if someone didn't use it in my drink on the cruise that it would break in their luggage...Include a small ziploc just in case???

I will definitely include a plastic bag. Thanks. My daughter eats them straight from the straw. I never even thought about using them in tea.

They are amazing in tea!

I welded the ears to the skull in Design Studio. The red Mickeys are just small ones cut out with the Cricut. The bandanna is from Life's a Beach, I think. Let me see if I can find my files.



I made these in October! I cut paper to size, scored them in half, and cut the corners. Put on the picture, put the magnet on them, Voila!

We loved getting these. We are still using as book marks. It is a nice reminder of a great week! Thank you!!!

I don't think we have honey sticks here. I don't believe I have ever seen anything like that!! (Ohio) My granddaughters would be thrilled.

This was our first Disney Cruise and first time doing Fish Extenders. Time was not on our side but I was able to customize little journals for ages 7+, Brushes for the adults (I have done them for honeymoons and have seen some here). The tags read "The time we've had, Oh How Grand! Let's take the memories, and leave the sand!", Lastly, not pictured here are little goodie bags that were put togethe for ages 6 -. We included gel pens with the boys journals and princess pens for the girls. Like I said, it was a first time all the way around.

You did a great job! These look terrific! How big are the journals?

 

[BeckyKay]

Thank you. The journals measure 4 3/4 by 6.

 

[tinkerbell0611]

Perfect size! I am going to keep my eyes out for them for my October cruise! Do you mind if I steal your idea?
