Labels for glass bottles ?

[denali_41]

i have been DIY for afew years now and i am getting tired of my current method of marking my bottles .now i want something a little better and lasting
i don't have a printer and have no desire to get one anytime in the near future
nearest print shop is 250 miles away and their pricing is just ridiculous to say the least

what are the online printers that can make labels for me

mods: i am not a vendor or juice supplier now ,nor do i have any intention of becoming one anytime in the future
i just want something better

Why not just buy labels that would be used for letters? Like... Avery address labels http://www.avery.com/avery/en_us/Products/Labels/Specialty-Labels/?Ns=Rank|0||Product Number|1

Get a little Brother label maker. Address labels always leave gunk and I don' like dealing with goo-gone, myself. They aren't super expensive on amazon.

I really like the look of the Avery address labels. I just started using the 2x4, which fit as small as a 30ml glass bottle covering everything but a sliver lol. I'm not sure how I'll feel about them when it's time to peel some off, but I like how my design came out on them. The only thing I would change, is to get the waterproof ones, maybe something a little shiny instead of matte paper, but I was in a hurry and distracted when I picked these up at Walmart. Still, I like how they work so far, and their label creator app on their website worked pretty well.

I'm sure that any online business card company would also make labels. But that expense fore bottles of juice? Just get a Dymo label maker from Amazon.
91% Isopropyl Alcohol & a cotton ball gets the label goop off of glass & plastic bottles easily.

The label creator app will let you make em fancy with borders and such if you really want to. I've tried em for my juice bottles and they don't leave that much residue behind Most of the time I'm lazy and just use red masking tape though lol!

Could you tell me how these labels stick to plastic bottles? The regular Avery labels will stick to glass just fine but they curl and peel off 15ml plastic bottles.

I can't be bothered to try to remove the gunk left behind by the canning labels I tried, some you literally have to scrape them off damaging the plastic bottle. I'm changing mixes all the time and really don't have any single mix I stick with long enough to affix a permanent label.
Since my wife and I are the only ones who uses my juice, I don't need a fancy label. I got a piece of leftover tile from our kitchen backsplash reno, put a few rows of green painters tape on it and with a fine sharpie and cut off the piece I need. Its a solid clean flat surface to write and cut on with a xacto knife and no yucky residue on my bottles and jugs from the tape also it doesn't curl or peel off easily. Just plain masking tape doesn't work as well as the painters tape(the tape has a coating and is more expensive than masking tape) If I was selling my juice I would definitely consider getting somesorta labeler but why if I'm the only consumer consuming my juice.

The Avery 6583 stick to plastic and glass and peel off without leaving any goop. I hand right and print on them and they work pretty well. they work on 30ml bottles and up and are 1.5 X 2.5

The stiff plastic ones will. There are other kinds available. Search label makers on Amazon.

The Cool thing about it is you can Print any Windows Font. And just about any type of Graphic.

There.s another one, similar to that, that plugs into a usb port on a tablet or pc.

Unfortunately I don't for 2 reasons: 1. I haven't figured out how to post pics on here and 2. It's been 3 months since I have used them lol. I know I got several templates from avery.com and even microsoft templates that had designs already on them and all I had to do was add the info I wanted printed on them. I am just lazy these days and use red painters masking tape.

Painters Tape and a Fine Point Sharpie is Great for making Labels.

 

[Daddy]

I use post it notes and scotch tape.

I have also used painters tape and sharpie markers - especially on larger canning jars.

 

[Kenna]

I use plastic bottles for juice to load my tanks with. I write directly on the bottle with a sharpie d cover it with scotch tape. I just recently started mixing, gotta pick up some painters tape for the glass jars I mix & steep in.

I've been writing on Avery labels with a uni-ball pen, & that's good enough, but has anyone tried the less expensive label makers like the DYMO $16.11?
