Create pretty chalkboard labels without fancy die cut machines!
I have such a super simple organizational tip for you today!
Chalkboards are still all the rage. Honestly, I don’t see them going out of style any time soon. They are too easy to create and great for writing notes and inspirational messages!
Today I’m going to show you how to use chalkboard vinyl to make easy (and cute!) chalk labels for your organizational needs.
The only supplies you need are some craft punches and chalkboard vinyl (affiliate link).
Be sure your punches are super sharp for this project! If they are dull they will not punch cleanly through the vinyl. To sharpen the punches, punch them through aluminum foil.
Simply punch out your chalk labels with the punch and stick them where needed.
There are some SUPER cute punch shapes out there that are perfect for label making.
This one is the flourish punch (affiliate link) from EK Success.
No fancy die cut machines needed! Just use those punches you have in your stash (that’s not just me, right?) to make some cute chalk labels.
>> See where I party! <<

July 25, 2013 at 12:29 AMYou are soooooo smart!! I love this – it seems so much faster than hauling out the Silhouette – especially if you only need one or two labels! I need to go punch shopping I think!
