Need hobby lobby mail merge template for place cards - anyone?

What are the dimensions of the cards? You can put in a custom size in Word and do a Mail Merge that way.

The problem is it's 6 on an 8.5x11 and they fold in half so not sure how to measure :0(

See if there is a comparable Avery number to them.

Eta: test a 12 label size on it and add two cells between each two names.

Avery 15664 should work

The Avery's will allow a mail merge, but don't have the proper spacing. I've even tried the Wilton ones (but can't find a mail merge either). I'm sure someone has done it maybe i'm just missing something!

And when I try to use what HL has, I cannot add a second line for the table number :0(

Avery 15664 worked perfect! We had to move left and right outside margins in a little, but then it was perfect. Thanks!

Hi Amy,

I understand your frustration with the Hobby Lobby template not supporting mail merge. To save time, you can create your own template in Microsoft Word that will allow for a mail merge. Here's a quick guide:

1. Set Up Your Document:

   • Open Microsoft Word.
   • Go to "Mailings" > "Labels" > "Options".
   • Choose "New Label" and set the dimensions to match the Hobby Lobby place cards (typically 2 inches by 3.5 inches).

2. Create the Template:

   • Arrange the labels on the page to match the layout of the Hobby Lobby place cards.
   • Save this document as your template.

3. Mail Merge:

   • Go to "Mailings" > "Start Mail Merge" > "Labels".
   • Select your custom label size.
   • Use "Select Recipients" to choose your data source (Excel file, etc.).
   • Insert merge fields as needed.
   • Complete the merge and print your place cards.
