52 Mantels: DIY Water Bottle Labels {Plus a Free Printable!}

Tomorrow I'm hosting a giveaway for awesome digital scrapbooking software from MyMemories! But, today I thought I'd show you how I used the software to make custom water bottle labels. And, because I love giving you stuff, I'm offering the fun, Summery water bottle labels as a free printable!

Before we get started, I have to say this software is SO easy to use! I made these labels the very first time I fired up the program. The software is laid out so easily and is very intuitive to use!

When I opened the program, I started with a blank project. I wanted to print my labels on plain Jane 8.5x11" printer paper, so that's the size I created my document. To make a water bottle label, add a rectangle from the shape selections on the right hand side of the screen...

..then size that rectangle to be the entire width of your page (so 8.5") by 2 inches. You'll place 4-5 of these rectangles on your page!

You'll notice on the right-hand side of the program, under shapes, there's an option to add color or paper to your shape. I added paper and chose from the papers that came with the program. I went with yellows and grays for the backgrounds of my labels.

After I had all my labels filled in with paper, I added another shape to the center of each label. There are many shape options, so I chose to make each label different. You can customize the colors and frames on the right sidebar.

The last thing i did was add text to the centers of my labels! This is a great time to use some of the free fonts you've been downloading to your computer (need a great selection of free fonts?? Visit my pinterest board dedicated to free printables!)

I printed my labels directly from the program on plain printer paper! Easy as can be.

To put your custom water bottles together, cut out each rectangle and wrap it around a bottle (after removing the brand label!) and secure it with Glue Dots. Ta-da!

You're free to grab my Summer labels if you'd like! Just right-click and download to your computer.
