Want To Spice Up Your Price Tagging Gun?
If you work at a department or convenience store, and one of your primary responsibilities is tagging items with a pricing gun, you probably get a little, well, sick of it after a while.
There’s not a whole lot you can do to break up the potential monotony, but you can at least make the price tagging guns look a little cooler. How, you ask? There are a few ways — take a look at a couple below:
Bedazzling
What you need:
- Rhinestones
- Super glue
- Washable marker
Depending on how much time you want to put into this, you can either glue a few rhinestones here and there (try either side of the trigger, or in a straight line along the top); use the marker to draw a design and then glue the stones along the lines; or just go all out and cover ever inch of the body of the price gun.
Paint
- Acrylic spray paint in color of your choice (we recommend metallic gold — it’ll give the price gun a nice royal feel)
- Acrylic clear matte finish
- Painter’s tape (optional)
Put tape over the parts of the gun you don’t want painted (you could also try to carefully take the whole thing apart — just make sure you’ll be able to put it back together!) and apply 1-2 coats of paint to the body. Let it dry completely, then apply a coat of the finish. Once that’s completely dried, remove the tape or put the price gun back together.
