I received a really fun package one day... Have you heard about
Epson's LabelWorks Printable Ribbon Kit? This is a perfect handy gadget for printing personalized satin ribbons for crafts, decorations, gift and much more. There are 14 font types and 10 font styles to choose from. You can store up to 30 label designs and print up to two lines of text. This particular model accommodates tapes from 1/4" to 1/2" wide. Usually I have a hard time with any techie things, but seriously, everyone, it was easy enough that I was able to figure out the way around, right away! Once I start playing with it, ideas started popping in my head; here are some of the things I did...
I wanted to print customized ribbons for each of my kiddos. I am going to tie these onto their Valentine's day gifts. I bet they will LOVE to see their own names on the ribbons!
I also have been wanting to have labels for my sewed items(that's right! I washed it and the letters did not fade or come off!!). I experimented with different fonts to see which one I like better...
My favorite are these two. I am going to fold the one with just "T" in half to sew in to the seam of bags and pouches.
While I was away, one of my boys printed himself one while giggling. It read:
I am glad to find out he has quite the self-confidence. :) Well, I mentioned Valentine's day at the beginning of the post... these words popped in my head as well and I had to type them out.
There are so many people around me that I adore very much. "Adore you" is such a simple statement, but I feel like it says a lot, wouldn't you agree?
I can think of many other ways I will be using this label printer. You can find them at
Office Max,
Amazon and
Staples. What would you make and say if you had this awesome label maker?
I myself am not good at crafts but I really enjoy looking at the creative talent of others. I had never heard of this, and you have done an amazing job using it. Thank you so much for sharing, I love all the things you have done here.
ReplyDeleteI would love to make some fun ribbons for my daughter to use to put around the little gifts she loves to give her friends!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this great idea. You don't seem to get the kit or the ribbons over here in Germany, but you can get the printer and I just ordered the ribbons from the US. I just made my first label and I have to stop myself from turning my 50ft. of ribbons into labels all at once. It's fun and so easy to do! I just love it, thank you!
