DIY Pantry Labels
These labels are easy to use! Organize your kitchen and pantry TODAY! 
by: Lindsay Allyn



Ready to freshen up your kitchen and pantry? Organizational food, spice and herb labels are a great way to go! Not only do they look posh on matching storage containers, but they'll help you keep things ORGANIZED, so you can find them FAST when you need them!


You can purchase pre-printed labels online or in a shop, but one of the nice things about purchase them DIGITALLY is that you can use them in soo many different ways! Stickers, vinyl decals, ink transfer -- when you buy digital, you can use them for the project YOU want to do.


If you're looking to reorganize your kitchen or pantry, or you grow your own herbs and spices, digital labels are a great, budget friendly way to go!


This page is all about how to use digital labels and decals to organize your kitchen and pantry. I've listed all my favorite ways you can use digital designs to create your own custom labeled spice jars, herb containers, storage containers, etc. You can even use the designs to create your own herb garden signs! The nice thing about digital designs is that they aren't "one and done" labels. You can use them over, and over, and over! That means you can create lots of amazing projects that match, or even use them to create some gifts for your friends! 



I currently offer a couple of different kitchen label sets in my shop, and they come with both svg cutting files as well as PDF pages you can print and cut out by hand.


Even if you're BRAND NEW to working with digital downloads, don't worry! These labels below are SUPER EASY TO USE!

There are several different ways that you can use these printable labels.


The easiest way is to simply print them directly onto adhesive backed paper, cut them out, and add them to your clean, dry container surface. You can print them onto WHITE sticker paper, but they also sell TRANSPARENT sticker paper! The color you choose to purchase for your labeling project is all personal preference. You may want to consider some of YOUR project specifics when you're making your choice.


Do you have an electronic cutting machine?

Great! Cut your new labels out in vinyl or your material of choice, and adhere them right to your container!

If you don't have a cutting machine, you'll need to cut the labels out by hand. If you're using a label set that comes with rectangle or circle stickers that are outlined, that's pretty easy to do with scissors or a craft knife! Do you want a white background or not? Choose! Either way will look great and the basic shapes won't take too long to cut out.

If you're using a flourished name design and plan to cut by hand, you might choose a TRANSPARENT background -- which will allow you to cut your designs out in whatever shape you like, such as a rectangle or oval. You can also use a craft knife and carefully cut out each letter by hand, but I don't really recommend this method. It will take you forever and is easy to mess up! Cutting a basic shape to fit your container will look nice and professional!


It's important to use a good quality sticker paper for this project:



I don't have a sublimation printer and haven't tried that method, so I don't have any recommendations on sublimation supplies. If YOU are a sublimation artist and interested in sharing a guest post on my site, or have a great tutorial you want to share,  don't hesitate to reach out!

Ink Waterslide Method or Sublimation:


I will work on adding full tutorials for these methods, but you can apply the printed design directly to your containers using waterslide paper (laser printer only!) or via sublimation (ink jet printer using special sublimation ink).  Both methods are easy to do and involve printing onto special paper and transferring the design to your project. (Soaking the printed paper in water, and an acrylic spray sealing coat is usually required on the waterslide method, but read the directions on the package carefully.)

You *do* need a special, dedicated, printer if you're planning to start up sublimation art, but the waterslide paper works with laser printers and is less of an investment to get started. If you have a printer at home, check what kind it is, and if it's a laser printer, try out the waterslide option if you'd like to add the ink right onto your project.

>>This is the waterslide paper I have used and really liked in the past. I pair it with Aleene's Matte Acrylic Sealing Spray (it's *super* important to SEAL IT, unless the paper you're using says otherwise!)
See how easy it is? Depending on the specifics of your project, and the tools and supplies you have access to, I hope this page has helped you sort out the BEST method for your specific project, but if you have any other questions about how to create your own custom kitchen labels using digital designs, just send me an email at Lindsay@The-Scrap-Room.com. I'm always happy to help! <3





Ink Transfer onto fabric:


You can also transfer these designs right onto FABRIC if you like. Make some DIY dish towels, custom napkins, aprons, and more! You'll need some heat transfer printable paper for this project. 

>>This is my favorite on Amazon. It's easy to use and gives professional results every time!<<

With it, you can create personalized apparel for any occasion. The transfer paper works on (non terry) kitchen towels, reusable grocery bags, t-shirts, sweatshirts, tanks, bags, totes and more.  Be sure to follow the directions on the specific transfer paper you purchase, but usually this method simply involves printing a mirrored copy of the design, and ironing it to the fabric. Easy-peasy!
