Where can I get the font?

I'm sure we'd all love to help you out but, which font are you looking for? Which sign is it on so we can tell you?

The Disney font - with the curls. I'll look for the sign where I saw it...

OK, I need some more help. So, these magnet posters. Do most people make these for the door to there room? I think it is a great idea and looks pretty cool. I have just not heard of this one.

This is my first try to post pictures, so I hope this works! I took this shot on our first day, but the door actually ended up a lot more decorated, with about 30 Mickey head paint chips cut out and placed all over the door. I meant to take another picture once all the Mickey's were in place, but forgot. Ooops.

I rotated the middle picture each day....the different individual signs are:

We had a lot of comments from folks (and my DH met some folks from Pennsylvania who assumed that we were celebrating a 10-year-old's birthday and they about fell over when he told them I was turning 27! ) and our stateroom host told us that everyone he met commented about our door. It certainly made the time spent on the signs well worth it!

I would definately encourage everyone to make at least one sign for your door, if only for the ease of locating your stateroom late at night!

Hi everyone,

HELP!!! Just a quick question and sorry if this has already been answered, but I have a few questions cause' this will be my first attempt at this. Okay, so I found the magnetic paper at Michaels craft store (8x11) and it's all white and the entire back side is magnetic. I am afraid to run it through my printer, cause' I am afraid it will just get stuck in there. So, I am thinking that I should just print something up on a seperate peice of 8x11 plain paper, then laminate that paper and then tape the whole thing onto the 8x11 magnetic sheet. Am I nuts??? Would the magentic paper itself still be magnetic if I just ran that magnetic paper through the laminator (if I take the chance of running this directly through my printer instead to make the sign).
Thanks for all your ideas!

I always put the magnetic sheets through the printer and have never had a problem. They are made to do just that.

 

[Verandah Man]

I've run "hundreds" of the magnetic sheets through my printer and never had a problem at all.

I love your sign...but also really love your t-shirts! Can I ask where you found them?

 

[woj68]

Thanks. We got alot of compliments on them.

DW found them online but she can't remember where. She Googled "pirate t-shirts" or something like that and found them on some off-the-beaten path web site and bought 'em there. Sorry.

Just wanted to post a quick HELLO, GOOD-BYE and THANK YOU to the DIS'ers on this thread. Especially Verandah Man who patiently answered my questions and forwarded pictures so I too could try my hand at door signs.

We are leaving the our first Magical cruise in about 3 hours and yes...I am up printing doorsigns!!

I mostly used other designs and changed info but also tried a few of my own.

Hopefully when I get back I will figure out how to post a picture of our door so you can all admire your handiwork!!

Thanks again to everyone for your ideas and encouragement!

 

[Verandah Man]

Have a MAGICal cruise, will be waiting to hear all about when you return!!!
