You can join all the information on one sticker or make one Personalized Student ID Label for all supplies and unique stickers for each class or subject.

To identify your belongings, make your art work large so you can identify you personal items from across the room. Use clip art, graphic designs, personal photos or custom artwork to personalize and decorate your binders and notebooks.

To organize and identify your paper work, use a different color paper for your class stickers to help you organize your binders and folders.

Al though this stickers can be made and decorated by hand, I will show you how it is done using a computer, word processor and a printer.
Design your sticker. If you are making multiple copies, it might be advantageous to use a label template found with most word processors or supplied free from Avery Labels.
Print your page of stickers. Be creative and select bold colors for your paper stock. Remember if printing in color you colors will not be "true" if printed on color stock.
Place double stick tape (aka carpet tape or double sided tape) on the back side of the page.
Cut your stickers to shape. If your stickers are square or rectangle it is faster and more accurate to use a paper trimmer. If your labels are odd shaped use any sharp scissors.
Peel the backing off the double stick tape when ready to use.
That's it! You're done!
