SanFranCruzer Posted February 23, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Im a little odd- so my hubby says, I want to put a door sign on our cabin that says "Captain's Quarters". I just want to be different and funny. Does anyone else find this funny? we are on the dream 4/1 out of New Orleans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckymbt Posted February 23, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 23, 2018 We always decorate our door with whatever theme fits the occasion...Sweet 16 Birthday cruise, Family reunion cruise , Thanksgiving ....maybe because we have always traveled with our kids since they were little and always loved to craft, it is fun to see what people come up with and /or are celebrating. Also in a long hall, for folks directionally challenged like myself, it always helps me find my "home". Enjoy being creative and if he feels like the Captain.....so be it for 5 or 7 days !!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgdick54 Posted February 23, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Captain's Quarters is cute, Brig, Gangplank or Exit would be crazy... Sent from my SM-G920T using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocoaloco Posted February 23, 2018 #4 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Captain's Hindquarters would be much funnier...:D:D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evandbob Posted February 23, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2018 When a drunk starts banging on the "Captain's Headquarters" door to give the "Captain" a piece of his drunken mind - that's funny, I want to see the video! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyBaby Posted February 23, 2018 #6 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Love it! I usually decorate our door too. Helps my husband find the door at night when things get fuzzy. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harleyquinn228 Posted February 23, 2018 #7 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Have you ever used the printable magnet paper for door decorations? I have used them before on a Disney cruise, but I remember reading somewhere on here that the Carnival stateroom doors need a really strong magnet. Worried it won't stay up!

TyBaby Posted February 23, 2018 #8 Share Posted February 23, 2018 I have ordered a magnet for this cruise. I plan to take some "approved" adhesive just in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobstam Posted February 23, 2018 #9 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Sounds like a fun idea, maybe I will do a door decoration and use a magnet that is my home state, then leave it as a gift to the room steward is he/she would like to have it.

asalligo Posted February 23, 2018 #10 Share Posted February 23, 2018 My thought when I see "Captain's Quarters" on a door would be that the woman inside was inviting the Captain to visit her quarters. I know this is not how you intend it, but that is what I would think it was implying if I saw it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tea4ular Posted February 23, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 23, 2018 We put a sign up (at least a sign, we've also decorated our door) - a few we've done: On our Alaska cruise we made a sign with beach chairs and the turquoise ocean that read Hawaii or Bust For our friend's 70th birthday we had Warning: Geezer Crossing On a Caribbean cruise we had: Don't Worry, We're With the Band Decorated doors were for my husband's graduation for his doctorate, which we included a card for fellow passengers to write their congratulations (he received many really nice sentiments); a Halloween theme; and an Earth Day theme. I know there are some who don't like the door decorating, and to each their own. We enjoy doing it and we enjoy seeing how others decorate. I was thinking once to create a 'window' that makes it look like you're seeing directly into the cabin. Enjoy being creative OP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassyredhat Posted February 23, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 23, 2018 We did the door magnets on Disney, and plan to do it for our Hawaii cruise with CCL. I am hoping their doors are metal like DCL's. I got the ones for DCL on ETSY. Patti Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted February 23, 2018 #14 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Just be sure not to put anything on your door of value to you. Sometimes, magnets, etc. on your cabin door do "walk away". ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joecruiser62 Posted February 24, 2018 #15 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Have you ever used the printable magnet paper for door decorations? I have used them before on a Disney cruise, but I remember reading somewhere on here that the Carnival stateroom doors need a really strong magnet. Worried it won't stay up! We were on the Elation a few weeks ago. We tried some flexible adhesive magnets on the back of our decorations. It wouldn't even try to stick. I don't know if the new doors don't have enough metal in them or if the magnets were just too weak. None of our hooks, etc., would stick inside the cabin, either.

ithaca gal Posted February 24, 2018 #16 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Just be sure not to put anything on your door of value to you.Sometimes, magnets, etc. on your cabin door do "walk away". ;p I bought Happy Thanksgiving signs for our door and our son's door. The one on his door walked away and appeared on a door on the other side of the ship. We just re-claimed it and put it INSIDE the cabin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get your fat pants on Posted February 24, 2018 #17 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I love it!! I’m traveling with 7 other cabins. I’m surprising them with door sign! One says “cruise forecast...cruising with a chance of drinking!” Another one says “I can’t help it I love big boats” Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SanFranCruzer Posted February 24, 2018 Author #18 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Thanks all! If you are on a ship with a door sign that says captain's quarters, knock and say hello! Ill be on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
