Welcome to The Poet's Study

The Poet’s Study has been printing Prayer Cards for Funeral Professionals since 1939. We’ve worked side by side with Funeral Directors and families to keep our laminated Memorial Cards fresh, meaningful, and personal. Many of our best ideas — from Remembrance Cards and Bookmarks to layouts for Death Announcements and Thank You Cards — come straight from the people we serve.

We offer same-day delivery to funeral homes across Chicagoland, as well as in-store pick-up and Uber delivery when available. We also ship nationwide.

Whether you’re planning a traditional burial, scattering ashes, hosting a Remembrance at a Bar or a Pub, Memorial gathering, or keeping things private among family, we’re here to help. We also provide Donation Envelopes, Mass Cards, Luncheon Invitations for after a Mass or Service, and custom designs to help you honor every life with care.

We’re proud to collaborate with The Digital Guestbook (visit website) (formerly Digital Registry Systems) to offer printed Thank You Cards with return addresses and pre-filled guest lists. We print them so you don’t have to spend all that time writing out your name and address and filling out all those guest names and addresses on the envelopes by hand. Even without the Kiosk, you can use their QR code at your Service, Remembrance, or Gathering to capture names, emails, phone numbers, and addresses of attendees. It’s easy, modern, and incredibly helpful. Contact us to learn more.
