Hey all! It's been one of those weeks around here where it's hard to find any motivation to do anything or finish any projects. I have no excuse...just laziness I suppose :) I guess that's as good of an excuse as any though lol.
The little babe is getting bigger and bigger everyday...and closer and closer to crawling and is already on solid foods. So because of this, I had to take a deep hard look at my kitchen and the deep dark depths of it's cabinets. It's scary in there! I can't believe how messy some of those cabinets get. We practically have no room for our own food let alone adding anything else for the babe (dang no pantries!)...and well, the cabinets within her reach are practically all junk drawers. So, long story short, I need to declutter and organize my cabinets....quick :)
To get on the ball with this, I figure it's always more fun to organize your cabinets when you can make them pretty in the process, am I right? It's a lot more motivational. So, to help with the process I created some beautiful (or so I think) kitchen labels....and I'm offering them to you all for free!
I have 14 labels so far, which include:
Beans, Candy (of course :) ), Flour, Brown Flour, Cereal, Rice, Brown Rice, Sugar, Brown Sugar, Powder Sugar, Grains, Oatmeal, Salt and Pasta.
If you guys are super nice and really want a specific label, just let me know and I may add it for you :) This is just the main stuff I have that I want out of boxes.
To create the labels, all you need to do is download the pdf here, or use the link on the bottom of the post and print it on label paper. You can get a whole 8.5x11" sheet of label paper without any cuts...the whole thing is just a sheet of pure stickiness... pretty much anywhere. Once it's printed, just cut them out and apply to your jars!
The jars I used for this are from Hobby Lobby. They have a great 'seam' or line down the middle which works perfect to line up the label and not worrying about it being crooked....for the most part :)
And if you are afraid of forgetting how to make oatmeal....or any other thing you are taking out of the box...like I am, just simply use a discarded piece of the label paper, write down the recipe or steps, and place it under the lid. Simple :) And yes...I do need to remember how to make oatmeal lol.
Hope you enjoy!
