Personalize your Creations

Remember when you were little and your Grandma would knit you a sweater or sew you a pinafore dress and attach that little label to the inside that read â€œMade Especially for You by Grandmaâ€? It was that little personalized touch that made the gift so special even though instead of clothing, you really rather of had a Barbie or the latest album as a present.

Sterling Name Tape Company makes custom-printed labels that are surprisingly affordable and very durable. They come in a few different tape colors, a variety of sizes and a ton of color printing options. Plus the company has been around for over a hundred years!

I have been ordering labels from them for years and have always been happy with the results. I order the labels in white and then just hand-dye them using Rit Dye in Rose.

Whether you are an aspiring designer or just like to make stuff, now you can have your very own label to personalize your creations.

Freebie: Printable Christmas Eve magic pillowcase poem

With all the excitement and expectation of Santa’s visit, it can be hard for kids to go to sleep on Christmas Eve. Melissa from Polka Dot Chair created special pillowcases for her nephews, to be used only on Christmas Eve. When she gave them to them, she included a little poem explaining that they’re magic pillowcases to help them have sweet dreams. She’s sharing a free printable of the poem on her blog, plus she links to a tutorial she’s written for making a pillowcase, so you can start the tradition with your own kids.
