So my need for sticker labels actually arose out of my Celebrity Earth Day Gifting opportunity. I'm making these super cute Upcycled Vinyl Record Image Bracelets for Earth conscious celebs this coming April, and I have been working on my packaging. I am using brown Kraft bags, but they needed some sort of closure. Immediately stickers popped into my head, . I looked into having them printed for me, but my DIY brain kept yelling at me "You can do these yourself!"
So I did.
WHAT YOU NEED:
Sticker Labels (I used Avery #22807 White Round Print to Edge)
Internet
GIMP or Photo Editing Program (Paint.Net or Photoshop will work great as well)
Computer with Word Program

1) After purchasing my labels I went to the Avery Templates page and typed in 22807 to pull up the right template (If you didn't use Avery, go to the brand's website as they will typically provide templates for you)
2) Download the template, and then open it up (I used Microsoft Word) It will look something like this:

5) Next, print IN DRAFT MODE on a blank sheet of paper so that you can insure proper alignment...I needed to adjust my template a tiny bit to the right so the circles lined up exactly with the template. When you're sure they line up...
6) Print your labels on your sticker paper

Love the design of your sample sticker labels. I am very grateful that you have shared to us on how to make sticker labels. I'll really try making this one, I'm very much interested.
That was an awesome idea, Maureen! Making personalized sticker labels doesn’t have to be expensive. If you have the resources on hand and the skill, you can do it yourself. Plus, it saves you money because you can use recycled materials that are still usable. And you can use your creativity on this matter.
