Applied Labels

I know I mentioned a few days back about T Man losing things at school.  I just received my new Applied Labels to try to deter this problem... or at least have the items find their way back home.

These labels are very simple:  white background, name, small image.  The labels are dishwasher safe and durable.  I love the fact that these labels are easy to read and very professional.  The labels even have a bit of personal touch with the addition of a small graphic.

With my order, I received small labels, clear labels for protecting the labels when worn in shoes, and date labels (perfect for food leftovers).  I was hoping to mostly use the labels on important clothing that goes back and forth between school & home and on lunch items. 

The labels will work perfectly for lunchboxes, containers and the such... clothing, not so much.  For the label to be laundry safe, you have to use a backer and label pressed around a clothing tag.  With most clothing having the tag printed onto the fabric now, this has been a problem.  The labels work fantastic when the jacket has a tag, but for those that do not have the tag the labels are useless.

Overall, I would definitely recommend using the labels for all items that travels away from home.  I have already applied one to the back of my NOOK.  I'm also using the labels  to differentiate between items in the home... which bag belongs to which child, etc. 

BUT... If you need to label clothing, you may have to go with another option.  If the company solves this problem, I would definitely use the labels for years to come.

What other uses can you think for using the labels?

How can these labels help your items return home each day?
