Graduation gift idea

A soundtrack for what's next.

Songs for the last day, the drive away and the first night somewhere new. Give them a soundtrack for the next chapter, on a tape they'll keep long after the dorm.

Why a mixtape works

  • It's personal in a way a gift card can't be.
  • It works with whatever app they use, now or in five years.
  • Pair it with a card or a check. The tape is the part they'll remember.

Stuck on the note?

The note shows up every time they tap the tape. A few ways to start:

  • For the drive to wherever you're going next. So proud of you.
  • Side A: everything you did. Side B: everything you're about to do.
  • Play track 1 the first night in the new place.

Questions

When should I order for graduation?

Give it about 10 days: up to two business days for us to make it, then 3–7 business days by USPS.

Can a group of friends make one together?

Yes. Share the private edit link so everyone can add a song before you order the tape.

What if they move?

The tape travels with them, and the songs open on any phone. You can even update the playlist later from your edit link.
