Cricut Label 1: How To Make Paper Labels

One of the easiest labels to make is paper labels. Just draw on paper with the Cricut pens and you can label a wide variety of things around your home. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to do just that.

Supplies Needed To Make Paper Labels

• Cricut machine
• White cardstock
• Cricut pens
• Lazy Susan organizer

Step 1: Draw A Rectangle In Cricut Design Space

Draw a rectangle in Cricut Design Space. Be sure to make this the size you need for your project.

Step 2: Type Text

Pick a writing font and type out your text. Be sure the line type is draw.

Step 3: Attach Text & Rectangle

Center the text on the rectangle then attach the two together.

Step 4: Cut & Draw Labels

Cut and draw your labels using your Cricut machine. Then add them to your project.

I added these labels to a lazy Susan organizer from Michaels but you can do so much with paper labels around your home!

Cricut Label 2: How To Cut Vinyl Labels

Vinyl is another great way to make Cricut labels for your home. There are so many ways you can do that but I thought I would share just one of those with you as an example. I am using this technique to make an organizer for my scraps.

Supplies Needed To Make Cut Vinyl Labels

• Cricut machine
• Oracal vinyl
• Rainbow drawer organizer

Step 1: Draw A Rectangle In Cricut Design Space

Draw a rectangle the size of your drawers in Cricut Design Space.

Step 2: Type Text

Type text in any font that you would like then center it over the rectangle.

Step 3: Click Slice

Choose both the box and the text and click slice.

Step 4: Cut Vinyl Labels

Then cut the vinyl with your Cricut machine.

Step 5: Weed Labels

Weed away all of the excess then apply to your surface using transfer tape.

This method has the word cut out of a vinyl box so the rainbow on the drawers shows through. You can also just cut the word from vinyl and apply it instead. Either way, you will love making vinyl labels with your Cricut. You can even make some for your pantry!

Cricut Label 3: How To Make Printable Vinyl Labels

If you have a Cricut Explore or Maker, you will love the print then cut function for making labels. I like to use printable adhesive vinyl for these to make them sticky as soon as they come off of my Cricut.

Supplies Need To Make Printable Vinyl Labels

• Cricut machine
• Cricut printable vinyl
• Tilt bin organizer

Step 1: Draw A Rectangle In Cricut Design Space

Make a box in Cricut Design Space any size that you need. Then make it any color that you like to match your home’s decor.

Step 2: Type Text

Type out the words you want on your labels in any font.

Step 3: Center Words

Center the words over the rectangle.

Step 4: Click Flatten

Choose both objects and click flatten to make the label a print then cut. Repeat for as many labels as you need.

Step 5: Print & Cut

Print when prompted in Cricut Design Space then add to your machine for the cutting. Peel and stick the labels once complete to any surface.

I love that with print then cut I can make these labels in any color that I desire. Plus the printable vinyl is so easy to work with. This may be my favorite way to make Cricut labels for any room in my home!
