How wonderful! Did you make it by yourself?

Yep, felt like a kid at summer camp, lol. It was/is my first attempt at modge podging.

This is a gift I am doing for an upcoming cruise, I still have to figure out if I will put an ornament hanger or a picture holder at the top. It is about 3" tall. I was inspired by a digital scrapbook designer that I follow, she made a similar product for christmas.

WOW PJ ... I love this. I hope we are in the same FE group in September.


I have most of my FE gifts worked out .... just not much of a clue for the men. Any ideas for good male FE gifts gratefully received.

Hey Sarah, I posted the same question a couple of days ago. The men and older boys are hard!
I have done the young girls (unless the numbers change), have organised a couple of cabin things, am about to start sewing the ladies, but those men are difficult....to say the least!
Must remember not to post any pictures on this thread since there are a few of us from the WB lurking around!

This is super cute! You could maybe put a large coloured paperclip at the top to hold a photo? Or maybe leave it as a paperweight?
Either way, It is really cool!

Oh my goodness - i am so excited by the thought of a FE Exchange and i haven't even booked my cruise yet - i have even started noting down ideas of what i can do LOl - everyone has made some gorgeous things. Just a quick question - do you exchange gifts everyday or once a week? How do you know which day to do it? Also if i book the med cruise for August i may have to get off the ship 2 days early - would i still be able to join the exchange group?

It is up to how you want to give out your FE's. You can give just one gift per stateroom or give everyone in the room a gift or both. You also decide on which day works best for you to give out your gifts. I am giving out one gift for the stateroom as well as everyone in the room a gift. The first gift I am giving out the first night/morning and the second one I am giving out on the Night of the Caribbean morning.

Hope this helps

For the ME of the Dream. I am giving special gifts to the group of people I know and then other gifts each night to those that I do not know each night. Everyone is getting a gift from me of our list of well over 100 staterooms. So as you can see it is completely up to you.

Whatever you decide, have fun doing it and remember that it is all about the fun of it, the surpirse and possibly meeting new friends.
Have a grand time FE'ing!

Wow 100. I was overwhelmed with 11 on our last cruise. Sure sounds like a great time though. You must have a spacesaving gift!

Exactly ..... I am always lurking around on this thread looking for ideas .... it has been inspirational. But no photos till we get back I am waiting for supplies to arrive so I can start making Just hope they work out.

Here's the instructions for the cool ties - I use the Shultz water crystals - they go a LONG way... so expect to have the rest of the bottle around for a while... they are good however in garden containers - it's the stuff they use in Miracle gro potting soil

I have made anything from 12 to nearly 400 for our very first cruise (5 Night Special Cruise on the Magic in 2008). The 12 are for my cruise on Saturday. I was just labeling them and realized that I have one label less than I thought. So I better get this sorted out as I leave later today. I will post photos when I come back from the cruise.
