I made 850 plant labels from 2 sets of Venetian blinds today. Four more sets to do, and I'll have saved $75 or more I'd have had to pay for labels for this year's seedlings and plants for the farm stand.

It took about an hour to disassemble the blinds, cut the sections to the desired sizes, and wrap a rubber band around each set of 50. The labels I cut today all fit into a single gallon-sized zip bag.

To sweeten the deal, I will no longer have to store the bag of blinds.
