Nice to be able to go back and reflect on everything I've made or written through the years, so it's definitely worth it. These are busy years with my kids, and I'm (usually trying to be) thankful for their fullness. Someday I may have more time... or not - we'll see!!Lilac & Lavenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310795393642483522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653873317577758096.post-25124029705212644172023-12-06T20:09:32.260+00:002023-12-06T20:09:32.260+00:00Welcome back!!!

Making tags isn't hard, just takes time - and when I have time I usually don't think of making them, haha! Dad likes having them ready to go, with string. I like adding the string myself, to get the right length/color/thickness of thread. I like your coffee stain method, and stamping is a great suggestion! There's a vendor at our antique mall that uses stamps and I love how they look. I've often thought about buying a tag shaped punch but haven't yet. Great suggestion to use Christmas cards - old postcards could be nice also!<br /><br />Another thing I like to do is buy sticker labels from Hobby Lobby's wedding section, when they're on sale. They come in chalkboard, or white with either gold or silver borders. I use them for pricing and also on Christmas gifts.Lilac & Lavenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310795393642483522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653873317577758096.post-82162782319719136132022-11-08T02:35:48.273+00:002022-11-08T02:35:48.273+00:00Booth owner here too! I thought you were going to ...Booth owner here too! I thought you were going to say pricING...which is my MOST difficult struggle, even beyong making my own tags! Lol! I found that buying bulk paper hang tags to be cheapest with the least amount of work. Ive tried tag shape punches & using cardstock (usually in a light brown), Ive tried printing designs onto cardstock & cutting, Ive also tried using scrapbook paper with a design on it...all too time consuming or expensive. So now I buy hang tags in bulk, they come already in the shape I need & has the string already attached. Ill work in bulks to coffee stain them, throw them on cookie sheets & drying in the oven (on LOWEST setting, checking every 10min) or the microwave (checking every minute or 3 depending in how wet they still are)....then when its change of season, Ill grab a stack & using rubber stamps & ink will stamp for whatever season! During Christmas another cute idea I do is use Christmas cards & a tag shaped punch! Great way to recycle those Christmas cards, esp if you have a child in school still!

Yeayy! Thank you SO much for leaving these up & making them available to those of us that are not that computer savvy! Lol! I LOVE these, they are so pretty, even just to have in your stash & look at every spring, lol! But NOW, I can actually use them!

I've gone through it all and downloaded most of it, I love it and cannot wait to get started using it, so the least thing I can do is to thank you. Your free downloads are more beautiful than so many I've purchased on e.g. Etsy.

Create an untitled design the same size as your printer paper (for me, 8.5"x11). Upload your saved image and drag at the corner until it reads 8"x8", or your desired size.Lilac & Lavenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310795393642483522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653873317577758096.post-73287594383212888702021-12-15T19:05:03.371+00:002021-12-15T19:05:03.371+00:00You're welcome, Emmanuelle!You're welcome, Emmanuelle!<br />Lilac & Lavenderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18310795393642483522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653873317577758096.post-68449139496667282502021-12-13T10:35:21.556+00:002021-12-13T10:35:21.556+00:00Thank you for these lovely tags!Thank you for these lovely tags!Emmanuellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03088890665197274257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3653873317577758096.post-33273408786783600562021-12-08T04:48:58.164+00:002021-12-08T04:48:58.164+00:00Thank you, Teresa!
