Make Your Own Metal Hang Tag Labels
Very often I take a walk around my neighborhood and come back with a great find. Today I'm sharing several of my side of the road finds with you and what I created when I got home.
A while back I found these metal discs in the street and was so excited I ran almost all the way home to create this project.

Literally minutes after I got home I had these metal circles in my workshop and was drilling a hole in each one.
My regular drill worked fine, the metal was pretty soft.
Next, I gave them a quick shot of white primer spray paint.
I cut out numbers 1-6 with my vinyl cutter.
You could use regular numbered stickers at this point.
I then gave each circle a coat of Triple Thick by DecoArt.
This product is self leveling so you won't see the brush marks when it is dry.
There is also the spray version which is next on my list of things to try.
It is hard to see the shine in these pictures but each tag now looks like an enamel tag with the number embedded in the coating.
You can give the tags several coats to thicken the coating even more.
The next step is to add a string and hang them all over the house.
The moral of this story is to get out there and exercise but keep your eyes on the road!
You never know what you might find!
Give it a try!
