From Lost to Found: Practical Tips for Labelling School Stationery

Pens rolling under desks, notebooks wandering off, and rulers vanishing are daily occurrences. That’s why knowing how to label school stationery effectively with the right tools and durable labels can help busy parents turn lost items into easily found ones. Labels4School offers hands-on tips for easy labelling.

How to Label School Stationery Effectively

How many times have you had to replace stickers on school supplies because they’ve peeled off or the name has faded? If the answer is “more often than I’d like”, this practical guide on how to label school stationery effectively will save you time and money. Start by choosing labels that stick well and resist rubbing, moisture, and everyday wear. 

At Labels4School, we offer durable, high-quality name stickers specifically designed for children’s items: books, pens, rulers, and even water bottles. Our online store makes it simple for parents to pick styles, fonts, and colours that kids love, making labelling fun.

DIY Labelling Tips for Busy Parents

• Batch label: tackle multiple items at once to save time and ensure nothing gets left out.
• Use a clean, flat surface: a smooth, clean, oil-free surface helps stickers bond better, as they may not be as effective on plastics that feel greasy or on highly textured surfaces.
•  Match the sticker size to the item: smaller, wraparound labels are ideal for pens and pencils. Multipurpose labels are available in various sizes for items such as scissors, glue sticks, and rulers. Larger labels are perfect for books. Position labels where they’re less likely to wear off, keeping your child’s name visible.
• Clean items before sticking: a quick wipe with a damp cloth removes any dust or residue. Make sure the stationery is completely dry so that the adhesive lasts longer.
