emeraldcity Posted May 18, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 18, 2016 While the pre-cruise days dragged slowly by, I decided to have some fun prepping my cabin décor. I'm pretty satisfied with the end result and I got to enjoy it for 14 days on the Brilliance transatlantic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cel_cruise Posted May 19, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Very nicely done! A few questions - how did you attach the towel Rod/curtain rod to the door? Is it a magnetic rod? Also - what will you do with it when you depart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mirp Posted May 19, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Wow! Very nice. How did you do it? Do you have a super fancy machine that embroiders or did you do it by hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emeraldcity Posted May 19, 2016 Author #10 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Very nicely done! A few questions - how did you attach the towel Rod/curtain rod to the door? Is it a magnetic rod? Also - what will you do with it when you depart? Thank you to all for the nice comments. It wasn't a lot of work to make the décor ... it was fun. And fun is never work. My DD and I did a Christmastime cruise a few years back and we decorated the cabin for that. Ever since then we try and come up with something to personalize our space while we're cruising. The door banner hangs on an adjustable curtain rod that has built-in magnetic brackets (found it at Wal-Mart for about $8). The black satin fabric cost me a couple of bucks at a thrift store (somebody's former bedsheets). And yes, I bought an embroidery machine about a year ago. I'm still learning how to use it, but I'm having a lot of fun with it. Because everything is flat, it wasn't a big deal to squeeze everything back into the suitcases to come home with me. The lone exception was the foam mattress topper and the puffy bed pillows I had shipped down to Tampa before the cruise. Of course, I don't think I can use the door banner again unless I manage to book 7092. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time4u2go Posted May 19, 2016 #14 Share Posted May 19, 2016 (edited) OP, I'm guessing you're a Saints fan, with the black and gold fleur de lis scheme. Edited May 19, 2016 by time4u2go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emeraldcity Posted May 20, 2016 Author #17 Share Posted May 20, 2016 OP, I'm guessing you're a Saints fan, with the black and gold fleur de lis scheme. Nope. Not a Saint fan ... I was just looking for something "Royal" without risking plagiarizing things with a golden crown. And the color scheme was originally supposed to be blue or deep purple, but my budget satin sheets only came in black. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted May 20, 2016 #20 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Emerald City, next move is to make your own sea pass card. That would really mess with the crew.:) I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachammo Posted May 20, 2016 #21 Share Posted May 20, 2016 We were also on the Brilliance TA and walked past your cabin one night on the way to a show. We wondered what was behind the door. We also decorate our cabin with personal pictures and images of the season. We bring a door sign that not many people see as we always have a cabin on the aft. Since Royal always seems to do a 50s night and 70s night on each cruise......we bring outfits to partake in the events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfguyxxx Posted May 20, 2016 #22 Share Posted May 20, 2016 (edited) I'm going on a Disney Cruise next week. Could you make me one for my stateroom with all of the characters?????:p Great Job! Edited May 20, 2016 by Surfguyxxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
