We recently bought new luggage for a European vacation because we needed lightweight luggage and new carry-ons for the size change requirements. We found some great options with the brand Jump but they didn't come with luggage tags. So, the day before our travels I whipped up some quick and easy printable luggage tags. I thought these would make great backpack tags as well. They really are quick and easy to make.
Materials:
- printable design (links below)
- printer and cardstock
- packing tape
- scissors
- ribbon
Directions:
Begin by choosing a design to print out. You can choose between the four colors shown above. The links to each printable with four tags each follows. [Yellow] [Black and White] [Purple] [Blue Green] These are 8.5 x 11" PDF files.
Before printing, type in your information or write it in after printing.
Cut each shape out and fold in half.
Using packing tape, pull off a long strip and cover the tag front and back. If you have a laminator, that would work well too. Trim off excess tape.
Slice a slit into the luggage tag or use a paper punch at the top of the tag.
Thread ribbon through the tag and attach to your bag. I also used a match at the ends of the ribbon so it doesn't fray.
