Are you finding yourself forgetting what recipe is in each of your DIY product bottles and containers? After some time of being an essential oil aficionado, you’ll find yourself in a pool of bottles, and if you didn’t label your creations, odds are you don’t know the contents of them.
Labeling should always be a part of every DIY. If you have a printer available to you, here are some ways on how to print labels at home.
How To Print Labels at Home With A Printer
1. With Label Sheets
You can purchase label sheets that can be used in your printer. Make sure the labels are waterproof as these kinds of labels usually hold up well when working with oil.
There are label sheets available where one large label covers the entire page or the sheet can be made up of several smaller labels. You can also get them in a variety of colors.
Regardless of the size, label sheets typically have a template available from the manufacturer that you can download and use to easily print your labels.
To help preserve your labels, use an acrylic sealer spray or cover them with clear tape.
2. With Paper
Once you have your labels designed, you can also print and cut your labels using generic printer paper. Just use decoupage glue to adhere them to your container or clear packaging tape.
Ensure Safety With Proper Labeling
Not having a printer is not an excuse to have unlabeled bottles and containers lying around. We, at Simply Earth, want to ensure safety when dealing with essential oils all the time and proper labeling is just one of the many ways we can be safe.
