Handwriting place cards? Labels? Help!

Handwritten with thin silver pen

I see your idea here. I think it would look nice with a thicker pen. Sharpie makes a thin silver marker that might work!

Can you write neatly in cursive? Since you have a very plain font for your names, the contrast might look nice! I'm not sure I'd like the look of labels though (even the clear ones). You also run the risk of the ink smearing or labels tearing when the coaster gets wet from condensation on glasses.

Maybe try with a metallic brush pen? And practice first to get the right look. There are youtube and online calligraphy tutorials for using those brush pens to make it look professional.

Or print on clear labels.

I can't write well in cursive anymore I think a thicker pen will help but I'm doubting myself now to handwrite out 150 of these and have them look nice.

Can you find a friend with nice handwriting to help. I am driving to see my friend in a few weekends and she will write all the names. I will get her a good gift to say thank you. She is also a bridesmaid.

My aunt helped me write out all the invitations, she has really nice handwriting. I'm contemplating asking her or possibly even calling a calligrapher, cause I hate to ask her again. There are so many little details of the wedding I don't care about but I wanna get this one right! My FH loves the idea and I want it to be done well for him

Cute idea!! I have an entire canister of coasters and brought them out the other day to "do something" with them. My FH does the same thing!!! Must be a guy thing. Your idea to use as a place card is cute. Maybe use them in your centerpiece instead?

Out of curiosity, what are you doing with the ones he's collected? That will be another project someday lol

Thanks! I just messaged the seller with a picture of the coaster to see if they think it will work

Do any of your friends or family own a cricut? I'm doing coasters as well and am cutting out the names in vinyl with the cricut. It's turning out even better than I had expected!

They don't can I pay you to do mine?! Lol

A circuit or silhouette would be pretty handy to have. I'm planning on using my silhouette for things like this and it'll be a good way to save some extra dollars.
