Let'due south talk most clothing tags/labels.  I'grand non a fan.  I don't like them in my apparel, and I don't like to stitch them into my awesome, one of a kind creations either.  In fact, when I exercise sew together them in, I know my customers (or kids) are going to practice what:  Cutting. THEM. OUT.  Why?  Because, they don't similar them either.  They are itchy, scratchy, and not made for condolement.  Storing and organizing them is insane likewise.  So many dissimilar sizes and label types to keep rails of.  Keeping your inventory up, running out and reordering, it is merely a hassle all the mode around.

Nevertheless, they are completely necessary.  They are very useful for kids (and adults) to put their shirts (and pants aka Leggings) on the right way.  They help with laundry care and if yous are a compliant sewing business, y'all know you have to take them. They besides let u.s. know where our awesome custom stuff came from.  So, what are nosotros to practice.  Tin can't live with 'em.  Can't alive without 'em.  Unless at that place was another way.

I desire to introduce you to my vesture label stamp.  This has to be the best affair I have ever added to my sewing arsenal.   With one tap on the ink pad and press into my fabric I get beautiful wear labels- without the tags!

I found mine at Calstamp.com.  They offering a variety of clothing label stamps and ink colors, perfect for every sewing project. I have both black and white (new canvas) ink for my custom fabricated, laser engraved stamp, and I could not love it more.  The item is amazing.  My logo has a distressed style and they were able to selection upwards all the fiddling design elements.  I tested my stamp on knit cloth from purple seamstress (most of my projects use their fabrics, and so I accept lots on hand) and it shows up nicely on every colorway.

A few things to note for best results:

  • Be sure your stamp is covered well with ink
  • Press firmly direct downwards and elevator up for a clean impression
  • Always make clean postage stamp when finished.  To practice this but stamp out excess ink until stamp pad is make clean.  (A small-scale toothbrush may be used to clean after a lot of stamping)
  • Exist sure to rut printing (using an iron) for nigh 5-10 seconds after ink dries.  ( Ink dries just almost immediately)
  • If y'all are using cloth you can't fe or heat press- like swim-  Put the item in the dryer for a "hot" twenty min cycle.  It works just the same.  I like to practise this for large batches of regular stuff as well.  It saves time 🙂
  • Continue your ink pad covered when not in used, to forbid drying out.

That is it.  Super fast and cute. No wonder all the large box tshirt companies went tagless years agone!  Now, you tin likewise.  If yous click over to Calstamp.com now, they are having a 15% off auction. No lawmaking needed.  Applies at checkout.

To add a size I used to employ laundry pens.   I like these vs fabric markers, because they come in ball point and fine tip which makes it easier to write in small spaces with no haemorrhage. I accept white fabric markers as well, since the laundry pens only come in black.  Cal Stamps does accept size stamps, which I  totally went back and ordered.  I love these so much more than the pens, but if you can't get the size stamps, laundry pens will piece of work just fine.
