How to make lunch box labels from a class list: use the same roster as cubbies, open the free label maker, set 2x1, map {{student}}, print lids and water bottles.

How to make lunch box labels from a class list

  1. Export the class roster: student, class.
  2. Open the free label maker and set 2x1 or 2x2.
  3. Map {{student}} large. Optional {{class}}.
  4. Preview two names. Print extras for bottles and folders.

Waterproof stock

We design the face. If the box goes in a dishwasher, use laminate or vinyl stock you already have. Thermal paper will not survive a wash.

Print or save
