Place Card Holders (8)

Hexagonal place card holders for Christmas dinner, Easter or a birthday. The card leans back slightly in a slot and a springy lip holds it in place, so it does not fall over. Includes a second version for thicker card. Small, quick to print and great in two colours.

About this design

The Place Card Holders are small hexagonal stands for Christmas dinner, Easter or a birthday. The name card leans back 8 degrees so your guests can read it easily, and a springy lip with a small ridge clamps it in place.

  • Holder: 38.4 × 34 × 14 mm, stepped hexagonal shape
  • Standard version: 1.2 mm slot with clamp, for 300 gsm card stock of 0.3 to 0.5 mm
  • Thick version: open 2 mm slot, for card up to about 1.8 mm
  • For cards 50 to 90 mm wide, slot 8.7 mm deep
  • Prints without supports, digitally checked for printability

Print tips: print 8 holders upright as supplied, 0.2 mm layers, 3 walls, 20% infill. Change colour at 5 mm height for a base in a second colour. Set the seam to the back so the slot stays smooth.

Matches the Hex Napkin Rings and the hex coasters. You get two STL files and one 3MF.

Designer's tip

Print 8 holders upright as supplied: the standard version for cards of 300 gsm card stock, or the thick version for sturdy card up to about 1.8 mm. For the two-colour effect, change colour at 5 mm height (pause in the slicer or a multi-colour printer). On the standard version, set the seam to the back so the slot stays smooth. If the card is too tight, slide it in and out a few times.

Frequently asked questions

Which cards fit?

Cards 50 to 90 mm wide. The standard version is for 300 gsm card stock 0.3 to 0.5 mm thick, the thick version for sturdy card or photo paper up to about 1.8 mm.

The card is too tight, what now?

Slide the card in and out a few times so the springy lip gives a little. If your card is thicker than 0.5 mm, print the thick version with the 2 mm slot.

Can I print them in two colours?

Yes. Change colour at 5 mm height, with a pause in the slicer or a multi-colour printer. The base and the top block then each get their own colour.
