journal entry:
What a weakness I have for labels. I love address labels, fabric labels, gift labels, book labels, labels for files, labels for closets, labels for drawers, labels for the playroom, labels for the pantry. I made these masters of labels which I use to make both fabric labels and gift tags. Rather than buying labels which are all the same, I used everything I could find to create labels which are all different. I made a color copy at home onto fabric sheets for ink jet printers and a copy onto card stock One master makes both fabric labels and gift tags. I love choosing a label for each project based on the personality of the person receiving the handmade gift. The best part: there is no end to the labels I can have. I can make one or ten. They can be small or large, square or round, bright or subtle. I especially love my “funky stuff” labels. The bell-bottom pants label is my favorite.
