First, start with a cereal box (this is the frugal version of tagboard).
Plus, it’s cold here in Chicago, and I didn’t feel like leaving the house to start this project…
Then scale it down to the size of the labels you want.
Cover with adhesive chalkboard. (I found mine on clearance at Home Goods for $2.00)
If you want to get real fancy, cut along the edges with scrapbooking scissors.
Then, bust-out the chalkboard markers and show your best font.
Finally, I actually sewed this on the basket, because I couldn’t find my hole punch…
See, now I won’t mix up my cleaners and snacks every again.
And the basket? Home Goods…$5.00
Yes, I am the queen of the clearance section.
First, the baskets, now the rest of the house.
Isn’t that the truth…happy wife, happy life?
Ha! I can relate to not wanting to leave the house for a project:) Nice change in the header- where’d baby’s eyelashes go??!!
Hey Megan! Those eyelashes will be back…I just taught myself how to do the header…
Especially here in Chicago…down by you…not so cold!
just found your blog from blue cricket – such a great idea for the chalkboard labels! adding the adhesive the my home goods list!

Have a wonderful week!
It’s snowing (again) and I can relate to crafting to combat cabin fever but not wanting to leave the house to buy crafting supplies.
