With Christmas quickly approaching —it’s always fun to decide on whether you might make some homemade gifts. Tidy Mom decided to share with her readers how to make Homemade Vanilla (a fabulous gift idea for the bakers in your family). She asked if I would design the labels for the bottles and gave me a couple to use for pictures.
Homemade Vanilla Extract Printable Labels
Making your own vanilla couldn’t be easier and it is far more economical than buying the store bought variety. By making your own vanilla extract, you can also try different beans. Beanilla sells bottles and 7 different variety of vanilla beans, each of which has a unique flavor! Using premium grade vanilla beans will provide significantly better flavor and aroma than commercially produced extracts.
Once you’ve made the Homemade Vanilla with Cheryl, you’ll want to grab a few supplies and print your labels.
Supplies:
Full Sheet Shipping Label(s)
Printer
Scissors.
*You could also use white paper and double sided tape.
The labels measure approximately 2×3 each. Be sure that they will fit your bottles. I printed on the full sheet shipping label and cut each of them by hand. Now, it’s your turn!
*Please Note: All printables and downloads designed by Live Laugh Rowe are for PERSONAL USE ONLY. Please do not alter the file or claim it as your own. Resale of electronic files and printed versions are prohibited.

So, ready to get this homemade gift started! Your friends will LOVE this and you can’t beat the thoughtfulness that goes into a gift that is made from scratch. Enjoy!

Hi Kelly
I just brought the Avery 8165 Labels, after I print out the vanilla extract labels and cut them do I use tape to tape it to the bottles.
Hi Jackie! They should be stickers, so all you need to do is pull off the back and apply to your bottle. Let me know if you have any other questions 🙂 Cheers!
just found your website and I have to say I’m feeling quite inspired. that is no small feat. i lost my husband a year ago and have not been dealing that well in general. this might be just what i need. i love to bake and vanilla is so expensive. thank you.
