Personalized Twig Pencil with Optional Place Card*

Bring the wonders of nature to your big day or special party with our fabulous Personalized Twig Pencil Place Card. Each sturdy card comes with an all natural pencil, crafted from the branches of trees, attached right to the card, so the place setting and the favor are the same object and nobody has to carry two things back to their seat.
The card does the work of a place card and a thank you at once. There is a space to fill in your own custom table numbers, and the phrase "Thank you for being part of our special day!" is printed right on the bottom of the card, so every seat carries your gratitude without you writing it out a hundred times. These favors will bring a lovely reminder of your big day to your guests each and every time they use their pencil, which is the quiet advantage a pencil has over a candle or a bag of almonds: it keeps turning up in a bag, a drawer, a desk at work.
Make the memory extra special by customizing each pencil with your own personal message. With this customized engraving, cut in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999, you have up to 24 characters on one line. That is enough for two first names and a date, a family name and a year, or a short line of thanks. Bark-textured wood takes engraving beautifully, the letters sitting pale against the natural branch.
Your set of personalized Twig Pencil Place Cards will be sure to help make your day a truly memorable one. They suit a woodland or rustic wedding, a garden reception, a farm table anniversary dinner, a baby shower with a forest theme, or a conference where every seat needs a name and something to write with.
Type your 24 characters above, choose your quantity, and bring these wonderful, all natural gifts home today.

Care and use
- The pencils are all natural and crafted from tree branches, so the wood, bark texture and shape vary from pencil to pencil rather than matching like painted pencils.
- The place card's table number space is left blank for you to fill in, so bring a pen you like and allow time to letter them before the event.
- The printed thank-you line on the card is fixed wording, so plan your own message for the pencil engraving instead.
- Twenty-four characters is one line, not two: count spaces and punctuation, and shorten a long date format before it costs you a name.
How the Personalized Twig Pencil with Optional Place Card is personalized
- Type your message in the personalization field on this page, up to 24 characters on one line, such as two names and a date.
- Add the place cards if you want the pencils to double as place settings, remembering they are ordered in a minimum of 12, and set your quantity.
- HansonEllis engraves the pencils in-house and ships the order insured by UPS, FedEx or USPS, with tracking emailed to you.
Ideas for what to engrave
- Both first names and the wedding date, the arrangement that fits 24 characters most often.
- A married name and the year, so the pencil reads like a small announcement.
- A line of thanks, since the card already says thank you for being part of our special day.
- A baby's name and due date for a woodland-themed shower.
- A company or conference name, so the pencil works as a seat marker and a note-taking tool.

Which one should I choose
The question is usually whether the favor should also seat your guests, and whether it will outlive the reception.
| Personalized Twig Pencil with the place card | Choose it when the favor also has to seat people: the pencil attaches to a card with a table number space and a printed thank you. |
|---|---|
| Personalized Twig Pencil on its own | Choose it when your seating is handled another way, or when you need fewer than the place card minimum of 12. |
| A printed paper place card | Choose it only if the card just needs a name; nothing goes home and nothing gets used again. |
| An edible favor such as almonds or candy | Choose it when the favor should be eaten that night; a twig pencil keeps reminding guests of the day for months instead. |
For a rustic table, the twig pencil with its place card does three jobs at once, and it is the one favor guests find in a drawer a year later and smile at.
Ordering the Personalized Twig Pencil with Optional Place Card for weddings and events
For a wedding or a party, count one twig pencil per guest and add a few spares for the gift table. Place cards are ordered in a minimum quantity of 12, so they suit a full table plan rather than a handful of seats. If every pencil should read differently, order the full quantity and email your list to [email protected] after ordering. A logo is a custom order: send a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to the same address, where a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be engraved on a surface this narrow. Standard production is 5–10 business days, rush 3–5 and expedite 1–3, plus 2–5 days US shipping; for a wedding, order 3–6 months ahead. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
Questions shoppers ask about the Personalized Twig Pencil with Optional Place Card
What exactly do I receive with the Personalized Twig Pencil with Optional Place Card?
You receive the engraved twig pencil, approximately 5" long and crafted from tree branches. The place card is optional; when you add it, the pencil comes attached to a sturdy card measuring 5.5"W to 4.25"H.
How many characters can I engrave on the pencil?
Up to 24 characters on one line, counting spaces and punctuation. Two first names and a date usually fit; a long pair of names may need initials or a shorter date format.
Is the place card printed with my wording too?
No. The card carries fixed printed wording, "Thank you for being part of our special day!", at the bottom. Your own message goes on the pencil, which is engraved.
How do the table numbers work?
The card leaves a space for you to fill in your own custom table numbers, so you write or letter them yourself. That is useful when a seating plan changes late, since nothing is printed that would lock you in.
Is there a minimum order for the place cards?
Place cards are ordered in a minimum quantity of 12. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
What is the pencil made of?
All natural wood, crafted from the branches of trees, which is why the surface carries bark texture rather than paint and no two pencils look identical.
Can each pencil say something different, such as a guest's name?
Yes. Order the quantity you need, then email your list of names or messages to [email protected] after ordering, and each pencil is engraved with its own line.
Can you engrave a company logo on the pencils?
Logos are a custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]; a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be engraved on a surface this narrow.
Can I see a proof before you engrave 100 pencils?
Yes. Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof has been sent carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check your 24 characters carefully first. Customer Support is at 310-878-9429.
How far ahead should I order for a wedding?
Standard production is 5 to 10 business days plus 2 to 5 days US shipping, with rush (3 to 5 days) and expedite (1 to 3 days) available, but for a wedding order 3 to 6 months ahead so the favors are boxed and out of the way early.
Do you ship twig pencil favors internationally?
International shipping is by request. The cart calculates US shipping only and international orders cannot be rushed, so email [email protected] for a quote.
Can I return them?
Engraved pencils are made to order and are final sale unless defective. Non-personalized items can be returned within 14 days.
