I'm really enjoying having my kids back in school. Yes, I'm still a little nervous about my oldest navigating the halls of middle school, but I've relaxed a bit. The girls are loving the lunch box jokes I send them, and they're doing great with our back-to-school friend maker game. I guess I should probably stop worrying about what's happening at school, and start worrying about homework! (Yikes! I'll try to forget about that for a little bit longer.)
I have another fun printable for you to share with your kids today. My printable sticky notes are perfect for hiding in a lunchbox, sticking in a weekly planner, or stashing in the pocket of a backpack.
Did you know you can print on sticky notes from your computer? It's super easy, and I'll show you how!
Printable Sticky Notes Tutorial
Materials:
- Home computer and printer
- Printer paper
- 3 x 3" sticky notes (any color)
- Printable template and sticky notes (click the download image after the instructions to visit the free printable page and sign up for my newsletter)
Instructions:
- Print the Lunch Box Love Sticky Notes Template
- Place a sticky note over every square on the template (it's easiest if you start from the bottom and move up).
- Put the template back in your paper tray. (You may have to experiment to figure out how to put the paper into the printer. With the pictured printer, I put the paper in as shown, but with another printer, I had to put it in the paper tray with the sticky notes face down.)
- Print the color or black-and-white sticky note file.
- Remove the sticky notes and hide them in your kids' stuff.
That's it! So easy.

What a great idea- never thought to print on the sticky notes! The photography on your blog is so great. Do you have backdrops you created and use?
Heidi
Thanks, Alia. I use white and black foam board a lot. In this post, the wooden table is actually bulletin board paper from JoAnn's.
Krista
I looked at the title of this post and thought "how in the world do you print on sticky notes??" Well I learned something new! What a great idea!
Heidi
I'm glad you learned something new, Krista. It's really easy. (If you have a template.)
Cathy

I used to print on paper scraps like this all the time when I was an avid scrapbooker--what a great idea to do it with sticky notes!
