making lables for diy...

[vsummer1]

Uuh, I might get yelled at for being to ghetto with my labels, but I just use painter's tape and a sharpie Considering that my bottles are usually 10ml and I change labels fairly often, it works. And painter's tape withstands steeping in hot water pretty well, peels off cleanly.

I am ghetto also.

I just use a piece of paper and hand print on it, then cut it out and use clear tape. I like the painter's tape idea, that sounds even better! I just don't want to take the time to mess with fancy printed labels. I just get creative while making my stuff, write down what I added, cut it out and tape it on. If I like it I have the recipe right there. If I don't like it I peel it off and toss it. It isn't as if I am selling the stuff and have to look all professionally typed or anything. So ghetto it is for me.

What's wrong with using Painter's Tape?

Cheap. Easy to Put on a Take Off. Sounds like a Winner to Me.

I'm even lazier. I just use a Sharpie and write on clear tape. Then I cover that with another layer of the same clear tape. Pretty much water proof and easy to remove.
BTW, I always try to write the basic recipe and mix date on each bottle as well.

Thanks for all the help. Iv been doing the ghetto way and with having different %s it gets hard to keep track. As soon as I get a juice I call done ill be more then happy to post a few up. Iv got over 100 flavors from different vendors so I'm just tweaking things here and there..

My DIY supplies should be here by the end of this week - as soon as I conjure up some juice worth labeling - all these ideas will be useful - but then again - mixing is an art - and I am an accountant - I doubt I will make anything worth labeling - lol.

I ended up going with a Brother PTouch. They go on sale periodically at Staples for about $20, you can get two rows of characters on a label.

I vape only one mix, don't bother labeling those bottles, but anything that goes to another person has a clean label.

Same here! Their labels are impervious to water, alcohol and jooses.
