Love them, we are doing the exact same thing - got the poem etc from ACS. Are you making 1 per person?

OMG, they came out great! You did all of that by yourself? Nice job! I still don't know how I'm going to mine.

thank you!
what kind of idea do you have in mind?
these were semi-easy. it was just a lot of cutting paper down to size--which took a lot of time

I really want to do a donation, but felt like I still had to give a gift. So, I wanted to maybe print a small card that I could attach with the jordan almonds. I really like what you did. I'm just not good with this kind of thing. And you printed it yourself? They really came out so nice!

ETA: I have a favor...I still want to do a donation though. Trying to think of the best way to let people know. Maybe just a frame on each table?
