STARTER GUIDE · AWAITING MAKER TESTING
Let’s make something lovely.
Step 1
Choose a label die with room for a sentence or two. Cut one label for each person, following your machine’s plate instructions.
Step 2
Write “I’m grateful for…” on one side, leaving space for a response.
Step 3
On the reverse, write the year and an optional name.
Step 4
Set a card and pen at each place setting. Invite guests to write a note when they feel ready.
Step 5
Collect the cards in an envelope or punch a hole and bind them together after the meal.
Try the pen on a scrap first to check for smudging.
Make it personal
Give each person their own note to take home.
