Step-by-step
Step 1
For our design work, we opted for the classic edding 3000 with a medium-width nib. Pick your favourite colours. Print out the template and lay it in position.
Step 2
If you’re writing on see-through containers made of glass or plastic, it’s best to stick the template on the inside of the glass. You can then simply copy the inscription onto the outside using the permanent marker.
Step 3
A small basket made of plastic can also be decorated to great effect using permanent markers.
Step 4
In this photo, a metal tin for storing stamps is being labelled.
Step 5
By using different stroke widths and colours, your storage organisers will never be boring.
