Guest book directions: poem or straightforward?

Rebecca, on June 12, 2012 at 1:00 AM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 8

I modified part of a poem that I liked for directions for my guest book, but I want to make sure it's clear what people are supposed to do.

"Words of wisdom, encouragement, or joke

a poem, drawing, or anecdote -

sign on a card and clip to a ribbon

it's the best memory you could have given"

Do you understand what to do? Or should I just be straightforward and say:

"Leave us advice, drawing, or message and clip it on the ribbons"

    I would definitely understand by the poem what I was supposed to do. I think it is a great idea!

    I was a little confused about the "clip it on the ribbons". but that is probably because there are no ribbons in front of me. I'm sure with the visuals it will be easily understood....

    They're signing on decorative papers and then supposed to clip them onto ribbons on the wall to create basically a big art collage which I will later form into a "book"

    Some would put a poem and have a straightforward instruction at the bottom of it. but your poem alone is perfectly understandable.

    The poem is straightforward so I'd use the poem

    Maybe make it "Sign your name on the card and clip to a ribbon"

    Some may forget if you don't mention it... or have the words

    Name__________________

    already on the bottom of the card to remind them.

    Cute poem, go for it!
