Don't forget! - Template
I first saw the idea to print on post-it notes on Kristen's blog "Inkablinka"....(here). It got me thinking it would be fun to make little post-it note handouts for various reasons. I'm in the process of making Sunday School handouts for 2012 for the 12/13 year old's using post-it notes. I created a few templates that I thought I would share....in case you'd like to make your own.

3 x 3 Template - Click here 2 x 1.5 template - Click here
STEP 1 - Open your file and print it BEFORE you start working on the file. You want a blank template to start with so you know where to put the post it notes to print properly.
STEP 2 - Keep the same file open and type your message or notes in the first box. Copy and paste your text into the remaining five boxes.
STEP 3 - Before you print, put a post it note on each box of your template. Put it face down on your printer and print as you normally would. Your message/note should be within each of the six boxes (as pictured below).

STEP 4 - Finished! Peel off post it notes and place in scriptures, dayplanner, calendar, etc.
Let's say you've printed a set of notes as a reminder for an activity, choir practice, etc. I have made a template you can use (below) that can fit the post-it note. All you do, is open it in Word and type your information in the white box. Print it out and place your post it note in the grey box. Also, if you don't want your text to have the box around it, just double click on the line and select "no outline".

Dec 26 2012 22:41:32 | Stephanie - It is there.
It is a Word Document, not another webpage. When you click the link for the template, the document will download. If it doesn't open automatically, one of a couple things is probably going on. Maybe you do not have Word installed on your computer? Or maybe you have a setting turned on so that it just downloads but doesn't automatically open. If that is the case, when it downloads, you should see somewhere that it is downloading. It may be a small alert box in one of the corners of the screen, or a separate download box may pop up. When you do see the download alert box, double-click on it to open the file (if you have Microsoft Word installed on your computer). I hope that helps.

Thanks so much! This will be super helpful!!
Tapria, mine just took a bit to open, but it did open (or, rather, it opened the save as box)

I tried printing this from my Mac and it would not show up. Would you know how I can get it to print on a Mac? Thank you.

JoAnn, I am so sorry, but I am not familiar at all with a Mac. Not sure how to make these compatible. Suggestions welcome!

I love this idea but when I print the lines from the template print as well. How do I get the outline to not print
-

If you don't want the line around the note, just click on the line itself and select "no outline". (If you read the last line or so of this post, you'll see a link and you can click on it and see what I mean by "no outline".) I hope that helps!! : )

Two questions: How do you keep the template line from printing? Do you ever have problems with the Post-its coming off and getting caught in the printer? Thanks!

I love this. I found it on Pinterest. But when I saw what the text was, I realized you were doing this for the same Sunday School class I am teaching too. Is there a link where the actual ideas for the Sunday School class are posted? I teach middle school too so I'm constantly "preparing a lesson" so I need all the help/short cuts I can find.
Thanks,
Joy

THANK YOU!!! I have always wanted to be able to print on post its but have been afraid to run through the printer ... it works! Have you ever tried to put them back together to form a pad? Just wondering if they will stay stuck together. Am going to experiment.

i tried this and it didn't work at first (it wasn't aligned properly) because I was putting the wrong end of the paper with the post its on it through the printer.
TRANSLATION: the template doesn't have even top and bottom margins. Put the end with the SMALLER MARGIN in "first" (as in closest to the printing mechanism) and face down.

Found this template on Pinterest, and I have to tell you, I was beyond excited! I modified it a little to suit my needs as a special education teacher and posted it on my blog, youmustbesopatient.blogspot.com- and gave you the credit, of course! It's amazing. Thanks!

I jammed my printer at school with this clever idea. All today no copier. I hope it is fix tomorrow. Many teachers a little upset with me.
-

I am worried this would stick in my printer. I cannot afford for it to stop working BUT might try it in an old one I need to fix up anyway.

You can also buy sheets of printable post-it's, if you ahve a lot to print out. They are hard to find in stores, but if you look hard you can find them online. 6 per sheet.
Can I also say it's kind of funny to see the word classroom censored? Can't we find a way to keep your autotomated censor from blocking that? Makes the site seem a little over the top prudish...

I would be afraid one would come off and get stuck in the printer, anyone have any trouble with that?

This is amazing. I use post it notes for Everything! I've been hoping to find a way to print on post its, but don't have the time to set it all up. Thank you so much.

I, too, found this on Pinterest. I have used it to create my "2 Stars and Wish" feedback postits and documentation for Writer's Workshop conferences. I write the feedback on the post it, peel if off and give it to the student, and I then write an abbreviated form on the sheet below for my documentation. Thank you!!!

Yes, this happened to me on the top left post-it (the first box). What I did was remove that one and then it worked perfectly.

Hello! I love the Plan of Happiness post-it! I would love to print it out for my seminary students to put in their scriptures. Do you have a word file that you made that with?

Love this idea! How about a 2"x2" template? Can this be easily modified for that size?
-
Dec 09 2012 12:22:34 | (Ms.) Ernie - Great Idea
Thanks for making these available. I've pinned them to Pinterest.

This is great! I took it one step further to avoid the lines that may appear from the template. Go back and make the border of the text box white so the lines won't appear but the text is still where it needs to be. Thanks for posting this template!

Hi! Absolutely love this idea! Do you have templates for the 5" X 3" post-it notes? 5" is the width......Thanx
-
Mar 07 2013 18:05:00 | Caron
To change to 5" X 3" post-it notes, start with the 3" x 3" template, delete the three boxes on the right, then stretch the width of the remaining three boxes to just under 5".

Thank you for your time and effort. I appreciate that you were so willing to share these templates.

Hi,
I love this idea! Thank you for the template. I was able to download the template, but I can't type in it. What do I do?
Thanks!
Sorry if this is a dumb question!




the template for the 3x3 isn't there and that is the one that want more then the others. :sad:
This is such a fun idea.
