Today may be the first day of February, but it’s still part of the last week of January, so I wanted to end this week with a little gift from the D*S team: custom organizing labels!
I asked four of my favorite illustrators, Lisa Congdon, Yelena Bryksenkova, Caitlin Keegan and Ashley G to create custom labels that D*S readers could easily download, print on blank sticker paper and use however you need! Staying organized and keeping cleaning-related New Year’s Resolutions can be enough of a challenge, so it never hurts to have something cute to keep you motivated. Each of these talented women has created a page of labels on which you can write dates, names and other information and place on anything you need to organize: files, boxes, bins, papers, etc. I’m so excited to use these on my inspiration image folders; they could definitely use a little help in the organization department. Thanks so much to Lisa, Yelena, Caitlin and Ashley for contributing these designs.
