Laurie S. Posted March 8, 2012 #26 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Not tacky at all. I do it and it's the only way my boyfriend can find the cabin. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare skittl1321 Posted March 8, 2012 #27 Share Posted March 8, 2012 The 13 yr. old is making the sign for her mother. The OP. ;) That's sweet! She might still want to leave the age off, in that case :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterbean1000 Posted March 8, 2012 #28 Share Posted March 8, 2012 We don't decorate our door, but I enjoy seeing how creative other people can be. Enjoy your cruise:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannahsmomtoo Posted March 8, 2012 Author #29 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Tacky? Yes. But she is 13, so why not? Happy Birthday young lady! Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room Service! Posted March 8, 2012 #30 Share Posted March 8, 2012 That's sweet! She might still want to leave the age off, in that case :) I think mama would appreciate that. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannahsmomtoo Posted March 8, 2012 Author #31 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Do it! I decorate mine because it amuses ME. I don't really care what others think. Last cruise I came back to my cabin while people were reading my door. I was at the very front of the ship so all but people in 4 cabins had to go out of their way to behold my door. LOL I use scotchtape. On splendor even the cheesy little CC door magnets didn't stay in place. I will add scotch tape to the list !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hannahsmomtoo Posted March 8, 2012 Author #32 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Tell her to go for it! I like door decorations, it is festive and you don't get lost. (Though I've never done mine) If she is staying in a cabin not with parents, I'd leave her age off of it, however. She will be with me.. but excellent point... ( and it's for MY birthday she wants to make the sign... so it wouldnt be a minor ) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cdamion Posted March 8, 2012 #35 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I personally don't prefer the look, but it doesn't really impact anybody one way or another. Do it and have fun with it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mousey Posted March 8, 2012 #36 Share Posted March 8, 2012 We'll be cruising at Easter time as usual for the DS's spring break so the raggedy old cardboard Bunny is going up on the door. Last year it wasn't an issue because we cruised in Aug. for a change. We just booked a cruise today and the DS asked me if I was going to take the Bunny on the cruise. When I answered in the affirmative he said, "Please, whatever you do mom, please do not put that thing on my cabin door. As if, :rolleyes:he's going on my door. Mr. Bunny has been traveling with us since the DS was 9, he's now 16. Put it on his door, can you even imagine such a thing?:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sillyjilly Posted March 8, 2012 #37 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I always decorate our door. Some say it's tacky, but it's my vacation and my door for the week, LOL.I usually decorate it with things and pictures of different excursions for the ports we're going to. ditto! I love seeing people's door decorations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scgamecock Posted March 8, 2012 #38 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Not tacky at all! Our group does it every year. It's fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare richstowe Posted March 8, 2012 #39 Share Posted March 8, 2012 I don't understand why anyone would think it's tacky. If it's not your door then why would anyone care? Can someone that thinks it's tacky please clue me in?Yes it is tacky in the way that hanging stuff from your rear view mirror is tacky. In the way garden gnomes are tacky. In the way personalized T-shirts are tacky. But so what! As so many others have said,who cares what others think. If you enjoy it, good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2beachlovers Posted March 9, 2012 #40 Share Posted March 9, 2012 I don't understand why anyone would think it's tacky. If it's not your door then why would anyone care? Can someone that thinks it's tacky please clue me in? I would like to know this too. I don't see why this is tacky, unless you are crude or well, tacky in your door decor. But, birthday, anniversary, or clever door decor seems only fun to me. (As long as it does not mess up the doors of course) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Runaway Parent Posted March 9, 2012 #41 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Some people like lawn ornaments, some people think it's tacky. It's your lawn/door-- do what you want. Live and let live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

donoiv Posted March 9, 2012 #44 Share Posted March 9, 2012 [quote name='hannahsmomtoo']We embark on my birthday.. and my 13 year old daughter wants to make a door sign that says "It's my birthday" or something similar.. I have heard of people doing this... Read mised reviews about whether or not the doors ( Splendor ) are metal.. What is your opinion on door signs? ok? tacky? Thanks !!![/QUOTE] I was at the Beverly Hilton last week. Travelong alone, but wanted others to know that I was "in the house". I taped a bunch of doilies to the door and ran streamers from corner to corner. To top it off, I made a big sign that said "JD's Room". It was super fantastic.
