Labeling is an important thing for moms, especially organizing freaks like myself. Mabels Labels have definitely helped organize my kids sippy cups, school items, and my moving life. We are moving overseas in just a few months and I am so excited to use this new system. When I received my sample set in the mail from the company, I started sticking labels on bins, and boxes right away. We keep huge plastic tubs instead of using cardboard boxes, and its funny how certain items just “want” to be in their designated tubs. Mabels Labels is helping me keep every tub organized with its rightful contents.
Bt why buy labels when you can make them you ask? I would actually urge you to make your own label for a sippy cup before you try this system. Make it as pretty as you can, get creative with polka dots, swirls, animals etc. Once the label is firmly in place and you dont think you can love it any more, wash the cup. Then put it through the dishwasher. Then give it to a kid with yogurt hands and wash it again. Then once it starts to slough off and leave that sticky residue behind, curse the day I was born as you try to scrape the stickiness off the cup.
Mabels Labels are waterproof and UV resistent. I stuck on a few labels to cups, tupperware, and tubs and did a water test. I washed the cups and tupperware a total of ten times. I had my two and three year old boys go to town on the tubs with a hose and water guns. Their “mission” was to get the labels off. Mission Failed! Although I counldn’t do a UV test because its Winter, and we are in Washington, I’ll give it a test when we move to sunny Sicily and repost my observations!
Not only are the labels good for kids stuff, they are great for household items as well. The combo pack that I was provided with came with rice, flour, flax seed, pancake mix, etc. Now I don’t have to dip my finger into an unlabeled glass container and hope its salt or sugar. Its so much more sanitary to know whats inside, than to stick my hands inside.
The labels speak, or stick, for themselves. They are tough, convenient, and pretty. Just take a look at the Label Out Loud designs. Save some time and let the professionals do it. Even though it seems like a mundane enough task, it is worth your time and sanity to have a good set of labels developed and sent to you. We have enough to worry about as military moms. Simply go to the website and follow the quick and streamlined directions. If you want an assortment of labels, choose the Big Combo Pack, which includes a pack of 45 Sticky Labels, 50 Iron-Ons or 75 Tag Mates™, 24 Shoe Labels, 2 Bag Tags.
Mabels Labels has labels for every item. The company even creates clothing labels, shoe labels, bag tags, and adorable stationary products. With constant moves it makes it easier not only for the family to have things labeled, but for caretakers and teachers that get new military students year after year. Mabels Labels simplify everyone’s lives. Take a look for yourself at Mabels Labels and know that your labeling needs, no matter how big or small, will be met with a fantastic set.
