Hello! I am hoping that SOMEONE can help me here because I am at a loss right now and feeling a bit like I'm floundering in deep water. *sob*
I'm working on a tight budget right now and trying to tackle my wedding favors with a DIY approach to save on some costs since our wedding is on the bigger side.
My fiance and I have had a long history (we've known each other since we were about 4 years old!) so I thought it would be cute to do little mint tins with a label on them that say "mint to be". I know there are favors out there like this but they are a little on the costlier side so I thought it would be nice to make labels, stick them on to round tins, and fill them up with mint we buy on bulk.
Only problem is, I have NO idea how to make round sticky labels to put on the tins. Here are the tins I'm thinking of using:
The stickers would have to be a little less than 2" in diameter so that they fit on the lid of the tin. Does anyone know how I can make these?? Any help would be much appreciated as my wedding is in 3 weeks and I am feeling desperate now. *huff puff*
Thank you so much for any and all help! You girls are the best~
i can think of two options: 1] buy label paper or some kind of paper that already has a sticky back, and get a large round hole punch from a craft or scrapbooking store. print the cute phrase multiple times on the paper, punch out the circles, and voila!
2] do the same thing, but with regular paper, and send it through a xyron machine.
" I kinda had the same issue I wanted personalized seals for my pochette invitation pockets and envelopes that went with my monogram theme.
I used Avery Round Matte # 8293 white stickers they are 1 1/2 diameter I bought a pack of 400 from Office Max for 15.00 then printed them on my ink jet at home.
On www.avery.com you can also use they templates to create your sticker and add colored borders and things like that. Heres what they ended up looking like.

You can't run them through the printer, but they seem to be the right size.
