DIY Personalize Back to School Classroom Labels with Cricut {tutorial}

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Cricut. All opinions are 100% mine.

Good morning! School starts in exactly one week for my kiddos! Annnnnd this school year looks completely different from any other year we have had before. Crazy times! That is for sure! Whatever decisions you have made for your kiddos, I hope & pray that this school year goes well for you & your family. Annnnd let’s hope for a completely normal & boring school year next fall. :) Our family is starting out virtually for at least the first half of the year. We will see about the later half. I have a senior this year, so I’m hoping he gets a little bit of normal before he graduates. Time will tell! For my two younger kiddos (5th & 8th graders), we have decided to do an online public school & keep them home. This is actually our 3rd year doing this, so I feel like we were a little ahead of the curve. :) One thing that is not changing this year is the use of my Cricut machine! I love the value, versatility & how easy these machines are to use. I use mine all the time! Let me show you how easy it was to make these easy DIY Personalized Back to School Classroom Labels with my Cricut Joy. I also have a quick pencil pouch tutorial for you, too. Annnnd TONS more fun back to school ideas with Cricut. So keep reading! :)
