Labeling School Supplies

There were several of Blake's school supplies that were tricky to write his name on.  He was supposed to label his 3 multi colored pens and the dry erase markers...I bought the generic brand of permanent marker (Sharpies haven't lasted long for me)  from Walmart...they had both, a fine point and regular point, and came in a 2 pack for ONLY $1 !!
These markers will write on ANYTHING, even metal and stays on!  If there is something that you DO NOT want to use permanent marker on, such as the inside of a coat, backpack , or lunchbox...(I don't write inside these items so that the next kid who gets them, won't have someone else's name in it! )  I used Johnson's & Johnson's medical tape.  It sticks well, but will come off if you choose to remove it, it is waterproof, and you can write on it with any pen! 




HAPPY LABELING !!!

  1. I love this idea, I hate labeling things for school and having it last forever. I will be doing this in the upcoming school year for both my kids. That way we can pass along any items down the road.
