5 out of 5 starsWell, I haven't had a chance to use my labels yet, but I can say that I like them very much and cannot wait to begin sewing a garment enough to sew the first one in! I appreciate also that I was communicated with promptly! :)

Frequently asked questions
Where do I put what I want on the tag?
Please put all personalization details (names, places, etc) according to the design selected in the "Add your personalization" box just above the "add to cart" button
Put any font changes if needed here (if no fonts are noted, we will make up the tag with the standard fonts for that design)
We copy and paste what is provided, so please double check spelling and information to ensure it is correct.
We send a preview of your design to your messages 2-3 days after purchase for your approval.

-flat or folded labels
-sew on or iron on
-see designs here: https://rebrand.ly/alltags
SATIN LABELS
-printed with black ink onto white satin ribbon
-washable at any temperature
-fold over labels only - cut ribbon edges need to be sewn into a seam or turned under to prevent unraveling
-Sew on only
-see designs here: https://rebrand.ly/satintags
How to Use Iron On Labels
1. remove the paper backing from the tag and put on item
2. Using a hot, dry iron, heat the tag on the item for the recommended time:
Regular iron on: 3 seconds
Heavy iron on: 15 seconds
*note - longer times do not equal better adhesion, following the heating times exactly is the key to a strong bond
3. do not touch or move the item for a full two minutes OR until the item is cool
**this is the most important part** if the item is moved while still warm the adhesive will separate and the label will come off. Once the adhesive is fully cooled the tags will be adhered.
Resist the urge to check the corners of the tag until it is fully cooled :)
Please wait at least 24 hours before washing items with tags applied.
Help! My tags won't Stick!!
Most problems with iron on tags not sticking are due to the adhesive not cooling completely before the tag is moved.
If the item is moved or the tag corners are lifted while the adhesive is still warm, the glue will separate and the tag will come off. The adhesive layer must fully cool to have a strong bond.
Resist the urge to check label adhesion until the tag is completely cool :)
*heating the tags for the exact time on the package is also crucial for a strong bond. longer heating will not result in a stronger bond, but will damage the adhesive and prevent the label from sticking.
How do I change the font on the design? where are the font options?
The font options are found as one of the product images for each label design. Etsy does not have a font preview tool, but we have a website that allows you to try our fonts with your text to better visualize your labels
visit: https://rebrand.ly/fontpeek
Please let us know how you would like your label set up in the “add your personalization” box found just above the "add to cart" button.
If you do not specify a font for your order, we will use the standard fonts for the label design you selected.
A digital preview of your tag design will be sent to you to review 2-3 business days (M-F) after the order is placed. You can request a font change if you are not happy with the preview font :)
Can you print my logo or design?
We can print your logo or design. The file must be ready to print (no editing of file needed beyond cropping).
600 dpi files print best - JPEG or PNG
CANVA users - please export as a PDF
*Screenshots are not recommended - they are only 72 dpi and will print out "Fuzzy" → Using the original file and exporting to a pdf or a high resolution JPEG will provide the best print.
We have two types of labels that can be printed with your logo:
COTTON→ printed in color (flat or folded tags, sew on or iron on, machine wash delicate)
https://rebrand.ly/logolabel
SATIN→ that are printed in black ink on white ribbon (folded tags, sew on, wash any temperature):
https://rebrand.ly/satintags
How do cotton sew on labels work?
Cotton sew on labels are printed with an 1/8" border around the design to allow you to sew them on your item.
Remove the paper backing from the tag just before using. This exposes the laminated backing that prevents the cotton from fraying when washed.
Either hand or machine sew around the edge of label (no need to completely secure the edges with a zig-zag; the backing will prevent fraying). Using a straight stitch works for securing, or get creative with embroidery floss of fancy stitches :)
How do satin tags work?
Satin tags are printed with black ink onto a white satin ribbon.
Satin tags come precut and ready to use - the cut edges need to be secured into a seam or turned under to prevent the ribbon from unraveling.
Satin tags are black ink only and gray tones will not print. Very detailed designs are not suitable for satin printing.
