Thanksgiving is hands down my favorite holiday of the year. With delicious food & wonderful company there is a lot to be thankful for! These printable little books are great favors for your guests. Place them at each setting for or pass them around the table to share. These easy to assemble little booklets are great mementos for an amazing Thanksgiving meal.
Materials: Printable Thankful Booklet, 8.5 x 11 card stock (I used Epson Ultra Premium Matte Presentation Paper), regular printer paper, craft knife, bone folder, ruler or other straight edge, glue, stapler
Step 1: Print out the cover pages (first 2) of the Printable Thankful Booklet on 8.5 x 11 card stock. Print out the remaining 2 pages on regular printer paper.
Step 2: For the cover, score the center of the booklet as indicated on the template and cut out using the ruler & craft knife.
Step 3: Glue the interior page to the cover and use the bone folder press the pages together & fold the cover.
Step 4: Follow the indicated cut & fold crop marks on the interior page template. Fold pages together and staple in the center. Two staples will work well.
Step 5: To assemble the book, glue the last page into the back cover as indicated in the photo and allow glue to dry.
Step 6: Give the booklets out to all our your guests and enjoy your Thanksgiving!

These are so adorable. What a fun way for guests to share what they’re thankful for. The tiny size would make them less intimidating than something more formal. And then you have a great little keepsake after.

My very favorite holiday too. We usually write down what we are thankful for and shuffle them in a bowl, and have people pick on to read and we all guess who wrote it. But I love this booklet!

These are so adorable, I will use them instead of the small notes that I have used in the past. Though I will always cherish the ones I made and used, these will go forward into future Thanksgiving Days!!
