Free Printable Toy Bin Labels | Print and Customize with Sharpie!

Organizing our kids toys has been on my to-do list for quite some time. Now that it’s September, we have the holidays and birthdays approaching which means MORE toys. It was time that I tackled the mess or I wouldn’t be seeing my living room floors again any time soon! I’ve been on the hunt for fun toy bin labels that I could use for our living room which has toys stored everywhere and for in the kids bedrooms. With a house that’s full of boys and girls I wanted something that I could personalize ourselves because we have a million blocks, cars, and books that are split up between kids. So I’ve come up with a fun design that I wanted to share with you. These labels can be customized by you or the kids, after all if it’s something for in their room let them have fun and personalize these by using their own drawings of their toys on the labels.

Sharpie is my go to product when I’m crafting or organizing, so of course I had to use my new Sharpie Pens that I purchased at Walgreens to customize my new toy bin labels! I used the Stainless Steel Sharpie Pen (my favorite)  and the color assorted Sharpie Pens. These Sharpe Pens give you the quality of writing with a Sharpie Marker but with the performance of a pen that doesn’t bleed through the paper and the variety of colors make these perfect for organizing!

To get started you’ll need the following:

– Sharpie Stainless Steel Pen/ Color Assorted Sharpie Pens
– Paper
– Scissors
– Clear Contact Paper
– Velcro

First you need to print the labels and then cut around them. Next personalize the labels for whatever you need them for. We used a few for at the bottom of our stairs to collect toys through the day that end up downstairs that should be in the bedrooms. I put the kids names on the bins and they sit near the stairs so when they go to bed they can take their bin of toys with them to put away. It makes for an easy clean up downstairs! After you’ve personalized your labels, cover them with your contact paper and cut them out again leaving a small trim of contact paper around the label.

To attach them to the bins I used Velcro, that way it’s easy to change in the future for changing out the new/old toys!

    I’m so addicted to sharpies! LOL. I have a HUGE bin of them.

    I really, really, really need to get my daughter’s toys in order. She’s older so she has tinier toys- Barbie pieces, Littlest Pet Shop and I’ve got to get them under control!

    What cute labels! I love sharpies anyway. I bought some colored sharpies for my high schooler this year bc I like them and not bc he needed them. He just rolled his eyes at me and said that he’s not in elementary school anymore. lol

    These are so cute. My little guy is just starting to recognize sight words. These would be a great way to reinforce that work while encouraging a little organization.

    I knew there was a reason I had all these Sharpie colors sitting around. They look pretty and I like having them in my pencil cup, but I should put them to good use!

    When my kids were younger, we had labels on everything. It was also a great way for them to learn to read and spell. I love the colorful ones you have.

    I adore Sharpies! I have them in every color imaginable. I love the idea of having a bin a the bottom of the stairs. My daughter doesn’t like making multiple trips up to her room so this would be perfect. Thanks for the idea!
