Keys2Heaven Posted October 31, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 31, 2017 My wife and I usually cruise during or very close to our anniversary. As such, I like to get a nice door decoration from Carnival, as it's a nice touch. I went to Carnival's site today and the only thing I see listed now are in-stateroom decorations. And it looks like the door banner has been replaced by a picture frame and beach towel? Anyone else notice that the Carnival door banners are now gone?

Schoifmom Posted October 31, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't recall ever seeing door decorations in the Fun Shop, but I wasn't looking for them. You can still decorate your door with flame-retardant, non-marking materials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Saint Joe Posted October 31, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I bring my own decorations & decorate my door every cruise. It's the only way my husband will find his way back to our room! You have to be careful, though, with the rules now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still decorate your door with flame-retardant, non-marking materials. Yes, they used to be offered for somewhere around $10 - $15. They are completely gone now from the Fun Shops.

k2 Posted October 31, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 31, 2017 What are the new rules for door decorations? Can I still make mini scrap-book posters daily for the door? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keys2Heaven Posted October 31, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I don't ever remember seeing them either, but we always take our own Really? There are usually a few Happy Birthday or Happy Anniversary ones on every deck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May1cruiser Posted November 1, 2017 #10 Share Posted November 1, 2017 IIRC, about two years ago they applied a large "decal" to the door that was part of fun shops room decoration. It was themed to match the room decor. They have stopped the decal. I also noticed they changed the ceiling danglers as well. i have kept the ceiling danglers and bring some with us on each cruise to avoid buying new ones each trip. i have been looking for a magnetic door decor online with no luck so far. i do like getting the towel and picture frame and give the towel to one of our children as a simple gift.

Alwayssomething Posted November 1, 2017 #11 Share Posted November 1, 2017 We saw a few people who had the inside of the room decorated and then took one of the decorations from inside the cabin and put it on their door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brepri_h Posted November 1, 2017 #13 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I don't remember seeing them online either but we bring something to make our door stand out. Lately I've just been bringing a mardi gras beaded necklace and looping and tying it to our mailbox. That is the only thing I've been able to come up with that doesn't get stolen.

ash-n-brensmom Posted November 2, 2017 #14 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I've tried using the links on the Carnival website, but I keep getting an error message. Anyone know the current policies regarding door decorating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikew0805 Posted November 2, 2017 #15 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I do not understand the need to put up door decorations. Do people do this in Hotels as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ash-n-brensmom Posted November 2, 2017 #16 Share Posted November 2, 2017 I do not understand the need to put up door decorations. Do people do this in Hotels as well? I wouldn't call it a need. But people enjoy it, and it makes finding your stateroom, in a looooong line of staterooms, easier to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassyredhat Posted November 2, 2017 #17 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Door decorations are extremely popular on Disney ships.:) I had ours made from an Etsy shop, but I cant remember the shop name. I saw Carnival samples there too. Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilcruisers Posted November 3, 2017 #18 Share Posted November 3, 2017 We are decorating our door for our upcoming cruise. We have cruised many times and have never done this but are excited to do it. I ordered a banner from shindigz and we will add on small anchors, signs, etc. just something fun to do. We belong to group on Facebook called decorate your doors and see a lot of really cute and creative ideas. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keys2Heaven Posted November 3, 2017 Author #21 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Ugh, this is not supposed to be a thread about creating your own door decorations and displaying them. I'm asking if anyone knows why Carnival has changed the stateroom decorations and, as a result, removed from their inventory, the static door decal/banner that you used to be able to purchase either separately or as part of a stateroom decoration package.

Lou511 Posted April 23, 2018 #22 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I guess you already got the answer to your question. You can still decorate the door but it has to be with fire retardant material. No tape is allowed on the door. You also can not put anything on the frame of the door. You can use Command strips. What I don't know is if the doors are magnetic or not.

The doors may be metal, but they're not magnetic. Otherwise, you'd see all kinds of odd metal things stuck to the doors. :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Mine Gal Posted April 23, 2018 #25 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I use one sided sticky magnetic tape. I stick it to my poster and up on the door. Doors are metal. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
