DIY Laminated Labels

I recently organized our medicine cabinet and hallway closet with small plastic containers and baskets from the dollar store. I put all like items together in each basket. For example, all medicine and first aid in one, extra toothpaste and toothbrushes in another. It makes it easy for my husband and son to find things this way.

While I love the look of organized tags and labels, I didn't want to spend the money on a labeler. Instead, I took a white sheet of paper, wrote the title in a black, permanent marker ("First Aid, etc."), cut it down to about 1x2 inches. Then, I took some clear packaging tape and stuck it evenly on both sides of the label. Now it's laminated and ready to go on the basket. At this point you can use tape, or punch a hole and string some ribbon through. Whatever method you prefer to affix it to the basket you are labeling. You can also pretty it up and use different colored markers, stickers, scrapbook paper and more!
