I did twelve years of dance and am currently on my eighth year of piano.  Originally I was just going to have free standing notes, but various people suggested adding something for them to sit on so that they felt more connected. So I decided to make multiple notes and put them on the bar lines. Above are the laser-cuttable templates, the red being the final cut.
