hartskys Posted December 6, 2013 #1 Share Posted December 6, 2013 I need some help. I need some cute, not expensive ideas for Christmas stockings on our cruise. There will be 12 adults and (1) 2 year old. I bought mini stockings with everyone's initials on them to hand out on the first night of the cruise. I thought about putting a highlighter, mini post it notes (only need one per cabin) and some mints and a candy cane in it but I'm hoping someone has some creative ideas that I could add. We have 6 cabins and will be on the cruise the week before Christmas. Can't wait! Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to suggest something like this that you make up specific for your group, maybe laminate it or roll it up and put some double sided tape so everyone can put it on the cabin door.

Lerin Posted December 7, 2013 #17 Share Posted December 7, 2013 You're going to need larger stockings. ;) And something to hang them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmf123 Posted December 7, 2013 #18 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Battery operated night lights :) Night lights or a small battery operated candle or tea lights- nice to have in an Interior or Suite! They add atmosphere, as well as safety at night if someone needs to get up. Maybe tuck a few ziploc bags into the stockings, they can come in handy. Have fun with your thoughtful gift giving! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notentirelynormal Posted December 7, 2013 #19 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Chapsticks or lip balm with sunscreen.Lanyards You would be surprised how much people like chapstick. I do stockings for everyone that comes to my house even if it's a friend of a friend. A couple of years ago I started putting chapstick in them. A true crowd pleaser.

cruiserking Posted December 7, 2013 #20 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Got to the Gift Shop and pick up some cruise magnets, pens and assorted knick knacks. Also, wait for the super T-Shirt discount sale there's one on every cruise, if you're armed with the correct sizes you can pick up some bargain presents for people this way. Happy Cruising and present hunting. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
