Pet Food Labels

As you may have guessed, I’m an animal lover.

My fur-babies are (very nearly) as precious to me as my real babies.

So when I saw these storage canisters at Ballard Designs, I immediately wanted them.

Ballard Designs

They satisfied the OCD in me in that they are clean and compact. They keep the food fresh and they are aesthetically pleasing.
I mean, I could leave these out when company came over they’re so pretty!

Only problem – the price tag.

The smallest container is $52?!

I needed an alternative….

I bought an old Silhouette machine from a friend looking to get rid of hers.
I purchased a couple of silhouette images online and created these labels with some adhesive vinyl:

The above is for training treats, below for grooming supplies,

and these giant ones are for food and cookies.

I bought these airtight containers years ago from Miles Kimball.
I see they still have a 3 piece set for $29.99 here.

The largest container fits a giant bag of dog food.

I like them because they have a hinged lid, they have a clip-lock (so hungry little noses can’t wedge it open by themselves) and they come on castors.
