Re: Bath and body product tags

[Guest guest]

I make my own and it depends on the look you want.

You need to have an idea of how you want to 'look.'

Then you have to decide if you're going with tags or

labels.

I do wrap my CP soap in cello bags. I am currently

using tags.

I have also used business cardsized stuffers and on

one side print a business card and on the other the

product info - which of course is the facing the

consumer. What I like about them is they are less

fussy and easier to pack - and also if I am doing a

custom order for an event a card can be more of a

souvenir.

Depending on size, and how much content you have and

your quality of printer to prevent slippage may help

you choose what you are doing. You can only go so

close to the edge. Some people work in a photoshop

program to be more exacting then the avery label

program for example. There are pros and cons to both.

I suggest looking at a lot product and decide what you

like. There are lots of soaping books that cover ideas

on packaging also and can be used as a springboard for

what you want to achieve. Or look at a lot of photos

on line. Your local library probably has some books

you can borrow.

I use Avery templates for many of my soap and B & B labels... Available at

www.avery.com

It's free, simple to use, and very flexible.

Thanks for the info on the tags!! I also found that Wilton sells tags

that are meant for wedding favors are the perfect size for soap tags!

They even have a website www.wiltonprint.com that has lots of free

templates! I downloaded and made the tags on cardstock and cut them

out with those scissors that make a border. Then got a heart hole

puncher and put ribbon through it. Works great!
