As promised, here's our tutorial on our handmade labels. They are both inexpensive and easy, plus kind of addictive. And they make handmade gifts much cooler. Here's how to make them:
materials needed: alphabet stamps (we found our set for $1 at Michael's), twill tape (ours was purchased via Joann), and a fabric stamp pad (ours was purchased at Michael's).
1. Spell out the word(s) you want on your label using the stamps.
2. Stamp directly onto the twill tape (be sure to do it firmly if the twill tape has a raised design).
3. Cut the tape & make more!
These can be sewn onto your projects, or your kids' clothes. Or make your own personalized ribbon for your gifts! The possibilities really are endless.
While you're busy stamping, let the kiddos stamp too! Give them a sheet of paper, some stamps and an ink pad. Be prepared though, your kids' hands will inevitably turn to the color of their ink pad. Just be ready with some wipes.
