How to Stuff Graduation Announcements

For most, it only comes around once a year and celebrating tons of hard work is definitely worth it. Graduation time is special for both family and friends. Getting your announcements ready is fun and simple, but you will need to know how to stuff the envelopes correctly.

Supplies needed:

• Announcements


• Stamps


• 2 Envelope sizes (large and small)


• Addresses


• Black ink pen

1. Find the larger of the envelopes. This is going to be the one that contains the smaller envelope and announcement. Nicely address the envelope using a black ink pen and place your return address on the back of the envelope. This should be completed in a very formal manner. Fully write out all information without using abbreviations. Attach a postage stamp.


2. Write the recipient’s name or names on the front of the smaller envelope. This should be written in a casual tone. If you have written "Mr. Robert Jones" on the front of the larger envelope you could write "Uncle Bob" on the smaller. Make sure the ink is dry before placing the announcement inside, as it may bleed through.


3. Place the graduation announcement inside the smaller envelope by placing the announcement in the envelope with the front facing the flap. When the recipient opens the smaller envelope they will see the front of the announcement. Do not seal the smaller envelope or tuck the flap inside.


4. Put the smaller envelope inside of the larger one. Have the front of the smaller envelope with the recipient’s names facing them. The first thing they should see when the open the large envelope is their name on the smaller one. When they open the smaller one, they should see the front of the announcement facing them.


5. Seal and mail the announcements.
