How to Print and Use Your Tags 🖨️

Okay, let's talk about making these tags look amazing! After printing hundreds of these (literally, I'm the go-to Halloween tag person at my school now), I've figured out all the tricks to make them look perfect.

Best Printing Tips:

  • Use card stock if you can (65 lb paper works great)
  • Regular printer paper works too - just handle with care
  • Print in "high quality" mode for best results
  • Make sure your printer is set to "actual size" (not "fit to page")
  • Test print one sheet first to check colors
  • Let ink dry completely before cutting

Cutting Tips:

  • Use sharp scissors or a paper cutter
  • Cut straight lines first, then round the corners
  • Keep a spare printed sheet just in case
  • Cut inside the lines for cleaner edges

My secret weapon? A $5 paper cutter from the dollar store. It makes cutting these tags super quick and keeps all the lines straight!
