Hehe... We were going to decorate our windows last time, but once we got there... No way was I going to spend Disney time in the room when there was all of Walt Disney World to be explored! lol
I never thought in a million years people would be so outspoken about the decorations! I don't like everything people light up or blow up for Christmas, but I'm not about to stop and give them my opinion! I decorate my family's resort window and door each time we go. It is usually Disney-themed anyway so for me it's extending what Disney is already trying to do. My kids look forward to seeing what I'm going to put up for our next trip. I guess my decorating comes from being an Early Childhood teacher for 20 years. To me it adds to the excitement for all the children vacationing at WDW. We always leave a message board for fellow DIS members and others to leave us messages. We've never had a single obsene message left and my children love to read the messages each night when we return from the parks.
I agree that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but if people want to decorate I say go ahead and do it!!! It's all in fun and after all, that's what Disney's about isn't it?!?!
I guess if people want their windows and doors to look like a discount store display - more power to them, as long as it doesn't impact other people at the resort (ie. lights shining in to other rooms, etc). I do think disney should impose a fee for people that opt to do this, because of the inevitable impact on housekeeping, and potential damage on doors and windows from tape, markers, general clean-up, etc. I also agree with a previous poster, that disney should maybe consider window packages, and not allow people to bring in their own (just to ensure that proper materials are used).

Love this thread! It was a thread just like this that made me start decorating a couple of years ago!!
We have decorated at CBR, CSR and ASM so far! 3M makes great removable hanging products! They really come off clean (the products have improved from past years!) That being said, I think the resorts should charge the guests who leave behind a mess on a window.
To the OP, I honestly don't care one tiny little bit that you think it looks tacky!
I will be looking very tacky to you no matter what when I am skipping through the parks squealing with delight with my tiara (or other fun hat/ears) Mickey crocs, and sequin tops!!
Life is waaaay too short. I am busy having a blast and going to WDW. I think that deep down In your heart you are jealous and want to play, too. You can 'ya know! When you see me I will give you huge genuine smile!!
We should have DIS decorating contests with many categories such as kids under 10, adults over 60, most hand made etc...after all it IS a form of folk art! What is bad about that?
