Ready to start writing letters that truly last? The Starter Kit is designed to provide everything you need to begin your journey of memory-keeping with zero fuss. This bundle focuses on quality writing materials and crucial organizational support, making the process of creating a family time capsule simple and achievable.

Please Note: The Starter Kit contains 10 letters, making it the perfect choice for creating a focused archive for one descendant. Purchase additional kits or stationery sets to write letters for multiple people.

What’s Included: The Core Legacy System

The Starter Kit transforms your stationery into a lasting archive:

  • Custom Stationery Set (1): Choose one design from our four milestone-focused collections and select your preferred paper/envelope configuration.
  • Guided Prompts Booklet (25 Ideas): Overcome writer’s block with 25 distinct milestone ideas and prompts to jumpstart your writing process.
  • Essential Organization: 
    • Descendant Instruction Card: Clear guidelines for storing the letters and a thoughtful note to the future recipient on how and when to open their letters. 
    • Milestone Tracker: A simple log to record the specific milestones and sealing dates for your 10 finished letters. 
    • Pocket Folder: Designed to hold your unwritten paper and envelopes, fitting neatly inside the plastic envelope.
  • Long-Term Protection: Your letters are secured within a Water Resistant Plastic Envelope for optimal protection against dust, time, and accidental splashes.

Designed for Longevity and Convenience

We believe a heartfelt message deserves to last. All paper and envelopes are acid-free, guaranteeing maximum longevity when stored properly. This set includes everything you need to create a complete time capsule letter.

  • Paper & Envelopes: 10 pieces of high-quality paper (either 6″x9″ cards or 8.5″x11″ sheets) paired with 10 matching envelopes (A9 or #10).
  • 10 Blank Milestone Labels: Use our digital template to elegantly type the recipient’s name and the specific milestone (e.g., “Open on Your 40th Birthday”). These affix to the envelopes for clear guidance.
  • 10 Sealing Labels: Decorative 1″ circle labels with the “With Love” design to provide a secure, final seal.

Important Preservation Note

To ensure your words last for generations, please use writing tools designed for longevity. We strongly recommend using a true ink pen designed to not fade or printing your letters using an inkjet printer. Toner-based laser printers are not suitable for the archival-grade paper and should be avoided.

Long-Term Protection: Your letters are secured within a Water Resistant Plastic Envelope for optimal protection against dust, time, and accidental splashes.
Important: This envelope is water resistant (not submersible) and features a fold-down top. We strongly suggest storing the entire kit in a safe place, protected from fire and prolonged exposure to water.
