Material

  • 1 Roll Sticky Tape
  • 1 Original packaging that the item came in
  • 1 Glass or plastic container of your choice

Method

  1. Cut off the product name and I also like to cut off the expiry date to make a 2nd label so I have a record the best before date on each container as well.
  2. Place a piece of sticky tape over the top of your name/paper cuttings making sure its overlaps on all sides.
  3. Stick completed labels to your container... Easy peasy!

  • I did use to do this years ago. Now I just use a permanent marker. I don’t mark a lot of containers because I don’t use them often. The permanent marker does scrub off, so just as easy

  • Omg, this seems super obvious to do now that I’ve seen this!
    It’s incredible how simple concepts can be overlooked and then when someone shows you it you feel dumb for not thinking about it previously!
    Off to get me some containers to label!
