BBQs and pool visits are probably still on your mind, but since I recently wrote about where & when to find great back to school deals I’m starting to get excited about back to school. Not just because balancing work and kids at home has been challenging, but also because I have a problem. Hi, my name is Kelly and I am a school supply junkie.
It’s probably my favorite time of year. The smell of freshly sharpened pencils, the way a brand new box of crayons screams of all the possibilites, and the adorableness of my littlest ones all dressed up and ready to go to school with big grins on their faces. (Note: the teen does not have the same face at 6:30am when he gets up)
The best thing about back to school though is how organized I can be feel like I am. One of my favorite products to get organized and actually stay that way is Mabel’s Labels.
If you’ve never seen them before, they are labels that somehow stick to EVERYTHING. You can put them through the dishwasher, the washing machine, and multiple kids and they still don’t come off. I don’t know how, but I know I love them for it!
You can get customized labels with different images, and wording, and they come in various sizes and colors. The sky is literally the limit with the combos you can put together! I have some that have my twitter handle, some that have just our last name, and others with the each child’s name. You can use them for a classroom, an organization, literally anything you can think of!
Julie shared her brilliant idea of putting labels on goggles at the pool, or pool toys. Leticia shared her love of Mabel’s on everything from computer gear to backpacks, pool toys to clothes.

I haven’t heard of Mabel’s labels before. They sound great. I will have to check them out. Thanks for the info.
I can’t claim to be that brilliant-that’s all Julie. 🙂
I LOVE Mabel’s Labels!! They are so cute and the perfect size for whatever I ned to label. I never thought to label goggles for the pool though. Good idea 🙂
