Glazed Paper with DYMO Label Text and a Photo for a Name Badge

The name badges shown are all made from patterned glazed paper, with a glued-on photo and a name attached, made on a DYMO label machine. Each name badge is then laminated and a transparent plastic hanging (a hang tab with Euro lock).


1

Cut a 7.5 x 10.5cm piece of glazed paper. In case you need to make several, you may want to make a card template beforehand to ease the process.


2

Make self-adhesive name label on the DYMO label machine and print it out. Attach the name label at the bottom of the glazed paper. NB: if you want the name badge to give a visual indication of attendance or absence, where either one or the other side of the badge indicates this, make a name for the reverse as well.


3

Print a black and white portrait photo, trim it and glue it onto the glazed paper above the name. Use a glue stick.


4

Place the finished name badge in a size A7 laminating pouch and feed it through the laminating machine.


5

Use a Chalk Marker from Uni Posca for writing "absent" on the back above the name.


6

Attach a self-adhesive, transparent hanging tab (Euro Lock) on the reverse. You may hang all the name badges on a painted wooden board with nails.
