Group gift/work shower thank you etiquette

What is the correct thing to do when your work throws you a shower?

I work in a very small office - 6 other people besides me. Friday they threw me a small shower - it was very sweet.

They got me a bunch of great stuff but it was from everyone. Of course I thanked them all profusely while there, but what do I do for a thank you note?

Do I write them each a separate one - or one and pass it around? I feel like I should write each one, but it seems weird -they would all say the same thing.

Thanks for any opinions!

I teach in a building with 125 staff memebers. Not everyone contributes, but when I got married about 75 of them did.

I got stationary from staples, printed the same thank you note to all, just wrote their names next to Dear __,
and signed then all.

If it were just six people I would personalized it more.

I would send them each a personalized thank you card. I wrote about 50 out for people at my job. They each contributed and/or got me something very thoughtful and I wanted to thank each person individually.

My thinking is under 30 you write individual ones for each person, over 30 get them pre-printed and write their names.
